As part of the start of operations of the Vallejo-I project and an investment of 100 million pesos, the Government of Mexico City announced that the Data Processing Center will begin operating on February 1 of this year.

Precisely, the Executive Director of Technological Infrastructure of the ADIP, Heidy Rocha Ruiz, explained that this new center will have a storage capacity of between 400 and 500 terabytes available, which will allow hosting the platforms of the Mexico City Civil Registry, the Public Registry Property, the Mobility System, as well as LOCATEL and the Mi scholarship program to start.

He said that it is projected to recover the investment in a period of three years, in addition to a profit of 20% if compared to the budget that would be allocated to consulting services and "cloud" providers.

“The city is going to have the capacity to host many more systems on its own and be autonomous in that sense; not depend on private providers −consulting companies that provide the service−, nor on large clouds such as Amazon, Azure or Google that are very expensive and that would be the main saving.

With the Vallejo Data Center we have the capacity to provide a service at this level of a cloud such as Windows Azure or Amazon”, he deepened.

Regarding what will happen to the current Data Processing Center located south of the city, which is already at 80% of its capacity, Rocha Ruiz reported that it will continue to operate, however, some servers will migrate to the Vallejo Data Processing Center.

"It has a growth potential four times greater than the physical space it currently has," he added.

Vallejo-I has twelve times more storage and seven times more processing infrastructure than the center located to the south. It will have the capacity to host more digital products that will make it easier for citizens to carry out online procedures without interruptions through the digital platforms of the different dependencies of the Government of Mexico City, Rocha Ruiz deepened.

The official assured that the Vallejo-i Data Processing Center is the first in Latin America to obtain a data storage center with the ICREA Level III Certification, which places it at the level of others located in the United States, Canada and Europe.
