DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global colocation solutions provider CyrusOne (NASDAQ: CONE) has purchased more than 29 acres of land located in the Continuum Business Park in the Phoenix suburb of Chandler, Arizona. The purchase and construction of the development property over the next several years will leverage a shared ecosystem with CyrusOne’s existing Phoenix data center buildings currently on the campus. The additional property expands CyrusOne’s data center campus to more than 85 acres, ensuring CyrusOne maintains the largest data center campus in the Southwest and one of the largest in the United States.
“The Phoenix metro-area has seen tremendous growth over the past few years as companies continue to relocate to the area. As the recognized leader in the Fortune 1000 space, this expansion will enable CyrusOne to continue to meet the growing data center needs of these companies,” said Kevin Timmons, chief technology officer at CyrusOne. “The City of Chandler has been an excellent partner for CyrusOne and we have grown in lockstep with the Phoenix metro-area as the region has emerged as one of the largest data center markets in the country. As the preeminent data center provider with the largest campus, CyrusOne is thrilled to continue to work with the community during our expansion by creating new local jobs.”
With the additional land, CyrusOne’s Phoenix data centers will offer over 2 million square feet of data center space and is exceptionally well suited for Cloud, Internet and other fast-growing Fortune 1000 companies that require robust data center infrastructure for mission-critical applications. In addition to the lower operating costs in Phoenix, the entire area is generally considered one of the safest in the country—free from natural disasters, including seismic activity, tornadoes, and hurricanes.
“As we look to the future, we have a similar desire to build a comparable campus in the Santa Clara, California region. Together with this Phoenix campus, these locations would continue to enhance CyrusOne’s ability to provide data center services to the high-tech, social media, and enterprise firms along the west coast,” Timmons continued. “We see these expansions as a way to serve more of our customers that are seeking build-to-suit, production, and disaster recovery data center solutions throughout the West and Southwest regions.”
As part of CyrusOne’s National Internet Exchange (IX) platform, the Phoenix data center campus provides interconnection to other CyrusOne data centers across the country. CyrusOne operates more than 30 carrier-neutral data center facilities across the United States, Europe, and Asia. This interconnected footprint of facilities delivers customers the flexibility and scale to match their specific IT needs for today and into the future.
