Katowice DC 2 occupies ul. Gospodarcza 12 in Katowice, at the centre of the Silesian conurbation, and sells colocation under the Play brand - the mobile operator P4, of the iliad group, which bought the Silesian data centre business 3S in 2021 and still trades the buildings under both names. Twelve networks reach Gospodarcza 12 and two internet exchanges are available on the floor, which places the site mid-table locally: ahead of the ATMAN room in the Altus tower at Uniwersytecka 13 and Orange Polska's Francuska 101 building, and a long way behind 4 Data Center at Adamskiego 7, where 286 networks and seven exchanges make it the region's carrier hotel. The sibling room, Katowice DC, sits across the city at ul. Ligocka 103, and a third Silesian site sits at Szymały 153 in Bytom. Floor area, power per rack and redundancy design are not published for Gospodarcza 12.
Twelve, along with two internet exchanges on the floor. For comparison, 4 Data Center at Adamskiego 7 carries 286 networks and seven exchanges.
Which company runs Katowice DC 2 today?
Play, the Polish mobile operator P4, which acquired 3S in 2021. The 3S Data Center name still travels with the building, since 3S built the business Play now owns.
Which other Silesian rooms does Play run?
Katowice DC at ul. Ligocka 103 and a Bytom site at Szymały 153, alongside Gospodarcza 12.
What can a buyer take at ul. Gospodarcza 12?
Colocation from Play's data centre arm, with connectivity from the twelve networks on site. Cabinet power, cage sizes and floor area are quoted on enquiry rather than published.
Which Katowice building is the region's carrier hotel?
4 Data Center at Adamskiego 7, run by Quicktel, with 286 networks and seven exchanges - about twenty times the network count at Gospodarcza 12.
