NEXTDC is an Australian-listed (ASX: NXT) colocation operator that designs, builds, and runs its own data centres, renting rack, cage, and wholesale space to enterprises, government agencies, and cloud/network providers rather than selling any cloud service of its own. As of early 2026 it operates 17 data centres across Australia, concentrated in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, Darwin, the Sunshine Coast, and the remote Pilbara region (Newman and Port Hedland), with further campuses in Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo, and Auckland in various stages of construction or planning as of 2026. Its differentiator is a national interconnection ecosystem of over 750 carriers, clouds, and ICT partners layered on top of Uptime Institute Tier III and Tier IV certified buildings, several of which carry NABERS 5-Star energy efficiency ratings.

Common Questions
Does NEXTDC sell cloud computing services, or only physical colocation space?
NEXTDC does not sell its own cloud compute or storage service to customers; it sells physical colocation space (racks, cages, and wholesale halls) inside its own purpose-built data centres, and customers bring their own hardware or connect to third-party cloud platforms hosted inside those facilities.
How many data centres does NEXTDC operate and where are they?
As of March 2026, Wikipedia reports NEXTDC operates 17 data centres, with facilities across Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Canberra, Adelaide, Darwin, the Sunshine Coast, and the Pilbara region of Western Australia.
Is NEXTDC expanding internationally?
Yes — as of 2024-2026 NEXTDC has moved beyond Australia into new construction and planning for facilities in Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), Tokyo (Japan), and Auckland (New Zealand), alongside a proposed hyperscale facility in Bangkok, though several of these were still under development or in planning rather than fully operational as of early 2026.
Which NEXTDC facility was the company's first Tier IV certified data centre?
NEXTDC's D1 Darwin facility, built as its flagship Northern Territory data centre in partnership with the Northern Territory Government, was described as the company's first Tier IV certified data centre.
Is NEXTDC carrier-neutral?
Yes — NEXTDC describes itself on its own website as a carrier and vendor neutral data centre provider, meaning colocation customers can choose whichever network carriers and cloud on-ramps best suit their needs rather than being locked into one.
Does NEXTDC operate an AI data center in ?
As of now, we don't have a confirmed AI-optimized (GPU-dense, liquid-cooled) facility on file for NEXTDC here. We continue tracking new developments.
