MGTS will invest 100 million rubles in the construction of its own data centers

A subsidiary of MTS Moscow City Telephone Network ( MGTS ) began retooling its telephone exchanges for data storage. Peculiar data centers will be created individually for specific customers.

The company has 66 buildings at its disposal. While rebuilding only one of them. At the initial stage, MGTS plans to invest 100 million rubles in the construction of its data centers. Payback investments planned for four years.

Data centers will be built as orders are received, and their projects will be coordinated with customers. This will reduce construction time and customer costs. This approach differs from the conventional one, in which data centers are created in advance according to a unified scheme, and then leased. Renting one stand in the MGTS telehouse now costs the company customers 18,000 rubles per month, while the average market price is about 60,000 rubles per month, company representative Tatyana Martyanova told RBC.

The law “On Personal Data” will come into force on September 1, 2015. It orders foreign companies to place data on Russian customers exclusively in the territory of the Russian Federation. Similar laws are already in force in Vietnam, China, Indonesia and India.

On July 13, Megamind wrote that the Association of European Businesses ( AEB ) still insists on the postponement of this law. AEB includes about 600 companies from Russia and the European Union. At the St. Petersburg Economic Forum ( PEF ), they sent a corresponding proposal to President Vladimir Putin.

On Wednesday, July 15, Nikolai Nikiforov, head of the Ministry of Communications and Mass Media, said that the deadline for introducing the law remains unchanged, despite requests from some industry players. He also noted that Russia has already created “sufficient for normal operation” the number of data processing centers and the necessary number of communication channels.
