The second phase of construction of the TsOD-3 (data center) has been completed in the Moscow region, creating one of the most powerful regional IT facilities in the country. The center operates entirely on Russian hardware and software.

Servers, Cores, and Terabytes

The facility can simultaneously support dozens of government information systems and regional digital services. Its computing infrastructure is built around four hardware-software virtualization complexes, which allow multiple digital systems to run on shared physical equipment.

The total capacity includes 24,000 computing cores and 480 terabytes of RAM. High-speed storage systems provide 7.2 petabytes of capacity, while the total volume of managed data exceeds 30 petabytes.

Healthcare Data

Healthcare infrastructure is a key focus. The data center hosts two dedicated medical data storage systems, each with a capacity of 2.8 petabytes.

“The infrastructure we have created is one of the largest regional data processing platforms based on domestic technologies. Its capacity allows it to support a large number of government information systems and digital services simultaneously. Particular attention has been given to healthcare infrastructure, with two medical data storage systems deployed at 2.8 PB each. This ensures reliable long-term storage of patient data and opens opportunities for further development of digital services,” said Nadezhda Kurtyanik, Minister of Public Administration, Information Technology, and Communications of the Moscow Region.

Technological Independence

During the second phase of construction, key infrastructure components were transitioned to domestic hardware and software, including servers, storage systems, networking equipment, virtualization platforms, and operating systems.

The TsOD-3 facility also includes specialized servers equipped with graphics accelerators designed for processing large datasets and performing complex computations.

Reliable operation of government digital services is now fully ensured.
