NorthC: Munich 2 Data Center

Munich serves as a hub for finance, automotive, biotechnology, and IT innovation, making it a key location for enterprises and service providers requiring reliable colocation and interconnection services.

Acquired by NorthC in 2025, the Munich 2 facility is being fully aligned with NorthC’s high standards of availability, security, and sustainability. Extensive upgrades are planned to bring the site up to Tier-3 readiness and to support the company’s goal of achieving CO₂-neutral operations by 2030.
