Telstra has announced another major data centre in the UK. It will be used as a hosting centre for the telco's enterprise customers.

Telstra will open a new data centre in the UK before the end of the year.

The centre is located in Woking, which is to the south-east of London, just outside the M25 orbital motorway. It will join existing Telstra data centres in Cambridge and London.

The new centre will provide 10.000 square feet (approx. 930 square metres) of hosting space, and will deliver a range of hosted services including managed storage.

"We offer a unique combination of first-class hosting facilities, international scale and global connectivity to provide a superior experience in managed network solutions. We are well-placed to maintain our growth in the market by continuing to match and exceed our customer's needs," said Telstra CEO David Thodey.
