CyrusOne is expanding its data center presence in Atlanta with a 44-acre campus in the suburb of Douglasville, Georgia.
Several media reported that the investment would be around $200 million for the expansion of data center presence in Atlanta.
The new campus will comprise three data centers, with 440,000 square feet of data center space and 50 megawatts of critical power. CyrusOne will start construction of data center space in the first quarter of 2018 with completion of the first data center planned for the summer of 2018.
“Leadership in technology, financial services, manufacturing, education, and connectivity make Atlanta an especially attractive market for our cloud and enterprise customers,” said Tesh Durvasula, chief commercial officer, CyrusOne.
CyrusOne’s Atlanta data centers will have access to multiple cloud providers and will be linked to the CyrusOne National Internet Exchange (National IX), which delivers interconnection between other CyrusOne locations across the country. Customers will additionally have direct access to one of the largest fiber hubs in the United States.
CyrusOne operates 44 data center facilities across the United States, Europe, and Asia to provide customers with the flexibility and scale to match their specific IT growth needs.
