Andhra Pradesh<\/a> Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu<\/a> is scheduled to lay the foundation stone for a $15 billion Google AI data centre<\/a> in Visakhapatnam<\/a> on April 28.<\/p>\n

The CM will inaugurate the hyperscale AI data centre project at Tarluvada village, expected to position Visakhapatnam as a key technology hub and an AI gateway in Asia.<\/p>\n

“Naidu to lay foundation stone for Google<\/a>‘s USD 15 billion AI data centre in Visakhapatnam on April 28. Mega project to be developed with 1 GW capacity, marking a major step in India’s digital infrastructure growth,” said a press release on Sunday.<\/p>\n

With a planned capacity of 1 gigawatt, the facility is expected to be one of the largest AI data centres in the country and will provide advanced AI cloud infrastructure<\/a> and large-scale data storage capabilities, it said.<\/p>\n

The state government has outlined a long-term vision to develop a multi-gigawatt digital ecosystem with a total capacity of around 6.5 gigawatts, positioning Andhra Pradesh as a major data hub, it added.<\/p>\n

The Google project is being developed as part of the state government’s efforts to attract global investments through its ‘Speed of Doing Business’ policy, the release said.<\/p>\n

The facility will be established across nearly 600 acres in Tarluvada, Adavivaram and Rambilli areas, with other private partners, aiming to build a larger multi-gigawatt digital ecosystem in the state.<\/p>\n

The data centre is expected to generate significant employment opportunities in artificial intelligence, cloud operations, cybersecurity, maintenance and data science, boosting job creation and industrial growth in the region.<\/p>\n

The state government also noted that the project will attract investments in allied sectors such as power systems<\/a>, cooling technologies, server manufacturing and networking, contributing to the development of a robust AI ecosystem.<\/p>\n

“With global tech firms focusing on Visakhapatnam, the city is set to gain international recognition and emerge as a preferred destination for AI and cloud-based companies,” the press release said.<\/p>\n

Moreover, the government said that with upcoming infrastructure such as subsea cable connectivity and Bhogapuram International Airport, Visakhapatnam is poised to transform into a global technology hub aligned with the ‘Viksit Bharat 2047’ (developed India) vision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu is scheduled to lay the foundation stone for a $15 billion…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":17767,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[24,12750,12746,132,1429,12595,12747,12751,12749,12544,12748],"class_list":{"0":"post-17766","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-google","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-ai-cloud-infrastructure","10":"tag-andhra-pradesh","11":"tag-google","12":"tag-google-ai","13":"tag-google-ai-data-centre","14":"tag-n-chandrababu-naidu","15":"tag-power-systems","16":"tag-usd-15-billion-investment","17":"tag-visakhapatnam","18":"tag-visakhapatnam-technology-hub"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17766","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17766"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17766\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17767"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17766"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17766"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17766"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
