From Foundation To Future

How Doug Adams evolved NTT Global Data Centers into the world’s third largest data center provider

With over 150 data centers in more than 20 countries, NTT Global Data Centers has an impressive data center footprint. Offering global reach with local expertise, they enable scalable, flexible solutions for large and small businesses alike via a connected platform of AI-ready data centers. Despite being formed only seven years ago, they have already earned the title of the world’s third largest data center company.

NTT Global Data Centers didn’t always exist at such a monumental scale. When Doug Adams took over as CEO under two years ago, he led the company from four disparate, autonomous entities into one truly global enterprise. Through infographics, leadership profiles, and an exclusive interview by InterGlobix Magazine’s Editor-in-Chief Jasmine Bedi with Doug Adams, this cover story illuminates the evolution. It explores the transition from foundational regional building blocks to present global solutions and future plans for supporting continued digital transformation.
