French consultancy company APL, which specializes in the design and construction of data centers, has just opened its first Swiss subsidiary in Lausanne.

APL’s establishment in the canton of Vaud aims to offer local large companies, SMEs and public institutions expertise on data centers throughout their lifecycle.
As part of its activities in Switzerland, APL will provide a full range of services: design of efficient, scalable and low environmental impact data centers, optimization of the use of IT resources and support infrastructures (energy, air conditioning, connectivity) in data centers, urbanization of IT rooms and reduction of the environmental impact of data centers and digital services.
