PLDT's VITRO Sta. Rosa Earns TIA-942 Rated-3 Certification, Boosting Philippines' Data Center Market Standing
April 25, 2026
The certification demonstrates VITRO Sta. Rosa's ability to process data and run applications even during maintenance, setting it apart from lower-tier centers with a single distribution path.
VITRO Sta. Rosa, PLDT Inc.'s 50-megawatt data center, has earned the TIA-942 Rated-3 Facilities Certification, signaling there is no single point of failure.
Rated-3 means any component can be removed, replaced, or repaired without disrupting customer operations, thanks to built-in redundancy that supports maintenance and expansion.
The Rated-3 infrastructure provides enough redundancy to operate during infrastructure expansion and unplanned maintenance and can withstand natural and man-made disasters.
The achievement underscores VITRO’s commitment to robust infrastructure and reliability for enterprise clients in the Philippines.
Rated-3 facilities can maintain data processing during maintenance and are better protected against disasters than lower-tier centers with a single distribution path.
The certification positions VITRO Sta. Rosa as a leading Southeast Asian data center and strengthens the Philippines’ standing in the data center market, signaling trust for global enterprises and hyperscalers.
CEO Victor Genuino says the certification demonstrates trust for global enterprises and hyperscalers and could attract more opportunities in the region.
The facility’s rated-3 redundancy enables removing, replacing, or repairing any component without disrupting operations, ensuring continued data processing during maintenance.
