Hong Kong Data Centre Exit Program

Project Overview

The Hong Kong Data Centre Program of works was initiated as one of Macquarie Bank Group’s two Hong Kong Data Centres was planned to be demolished in October 2016. Concurrent to this, Macquarie Bank made an executive decision to transition into an outsourced model which would leverage a single global service provider (HP) to enable the establishment of an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) environment, and a co-location facility in Hong Kong.
