ROBERT ASSINK - DIGITAL REALTY | IBERIAN PROPERTY TALKS - NOV 2025
Different demand types have created different data-centre models. Digital Realty emerged as a multi-tenant operator — many clients under one roof. “To give an idea: across our four data centres in Madrid, spread across three locations connected by fibre, we have 17,000 cross-connections between customers. These allow them to buy and sell traffic and services directly with each other. It is like a digital airport hub — the density of connections creates value. This is not a single building with a single client: it is an ecosystem developed over 25 years, and you cannot build that overnight”.
