Fulfilling the requirement to reserve 10% of the capacity of Russian data centers for government needs will cost the market 15-20 billion rubles a year, Kommersant writes, citing analyst estimates. According to the rules, which will come into effect no later than November 12, the operators will be able to continue renting these resources, but at the request of a government subcommittee they will be required to release them within 24 hours. The cost of providing such capacity will be regulated by the state.
