Reliance’s Tamil Nadu campus may host Meta’s first India data centre

Social media giant Meta is likely to house its first data centre in India at the Reliance Industries campus in Chennai, several people aware of the matter told ET. This will help the American company process user generated content locally across its flagship apps such as Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp.

The Mark Zuckerberg-led company inked a deal with RIL following discussions at the recently concluded pre-wedding celebrations of Ambani scion Anant at Jamnagar in early March, the sources added.

The deal value could not be independently ascertained.
