The data centre covers an area of 10,000 square metres and is expected to be completed by the first quarter of next year.
Once completed, FPT Telecom will provide large and modern data storage infrastructure with high security level to thousands of domestic and foreign enterprises and organisations.
Digital transformation has been occurring not only in Vietnam but also around the world, said Hoang Nam Tien, Chairman of FPT Telecom.
The need to bring systems and applications onto the cloud is rising, he noted.
"Therefore, we needed to have big data centres with high standards, ensuring security for systems and be able to compete with "big companies" such as Microsoft, Google, and Amazon," he added.
A strong cloud platform is the basic infrastructure for digital transformation of businesses and economies./.
