CDC Data Centres
CDC Data Centres grew out of a Canberra base serving government and defence, and that secure, sovereign positioning remains central to its identity. It runs high-availability campuses clustered around the national capital and Sydney, and has extended into New Zealand. Its ownership by Infratil and a Commonwealth-linked superannuation investor reinforces its sovereign-grade pitch.
