AzInTelecom LLC: AzInTelecom New Data Center, Hajigabul

AzInTelecom publicly states that one of its two new data centers will be built in the Hajigabul region, with the Hajigabul site positioned as the reserve / backup data center, while the Absheron site is the main data center. The official AzInTelecom announcement says both new facilities will be built using green technologies and decarbonized materials and will remain on the balance sheet of AzInTelecom LLC, which operates under Azerbaijan’s Ministry of Digital Development and Transport.

Public institutional and industry sources support this as an active future facility rather than a completed, publicly profiled operating data center. The European Investment Bank states that its EUR 43 million loan to AzInTelecom will finance two new state of the art data centers for governmental cloud infrastructure, while 2025 public reporting states that construction of the Hajigabul and Absheron sites began in 2025.
