Equinix data centers in Australia meet global standards of security, compliance and operational excellence.
Simplify colocation in AI-ready Australia data centers with advanced cooling, interconnection, secure cloud connectivity and disaster recovery solutions—all backed by 24x7 security, technical support and amenities like conference rooms, work kiosks, loaner tools and EV charging stations.
Equinix operates data centers in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, Canberra and Adelaide, with the most capacity concentrated in Sydney and Melbourne. These metros form the backbone of Australia’s digital economy, supporting hyperscale cloud on-ramps, subsea cable gateways, business and government workloads and renewable-powered expansion opportunities.
Equinix operates 18 data centers across Australia, strategically located in the country’s largest business and cloud hubs. This nationwide presence gives enterprises, financial institutions, government agencies and digital platforms access to resilient interconnection infrastructure coast to coast.
Equinix’s Australian portfolio offers about 730,000 square feet (68,000 square meters) of colocation space across its facilities. This capacity underpins Sydney and Melbourne as the primary interconnection hubs, while extending reach to secondary markets like Perth, Brisbane, Canberra and Adelaide for resilience and regional access.
The Australian data center colocation market size is estimated to have been about USD $1.6 billion (AUD $2.42 billion) in 2024. Strong growth is being driven by cloud adoption, AI workloads, hyperscaler investment and data residency and privacy laws, making Australia one of the most dynamic digital infrastructure markets in Asia Pacific.
Yes. Equinix has achieved more than 80% renewable energy coverage across its Asia Pacific operations. Although not 100% covered as of the end of 2024, Australia has achieved about 19% renewable energy coverage through the Large-Scale Renewable Target program. Australia is home to our largest solar power purchase agreement, with 151 MW of clean power expected to come online in 2029. Once online, this project is anticipated to bring Equinix's renewable energy coverage in both Australia and globally to 100%. We are also expanding our energy strategy with bold investments in new low-carbon and zero-carbon technologies such as fuel cells and small modular nuclear reactors.
