Phoenix Data Centers ^(PHX)

PHOENIX, ARIZONA

Phoenix, known as the “Silicon Desert,” is the fifth-most populous city in the United States and the center of the Arizona colocation market. The city is also home to many notable companies, including PetSmart, Sprouts Farmers Market, and U-Haul—all of which drive data centers demand.

The city takes a progressive stance on technology with an active five-year Smart Cities strategy. Arizona State University and AWS are also participating—collaborating on a Smart City Cloud Innovation Center to help make the state smarter. Phoenix is also among 20 cities added to the Verizon 5G rollout.

The low risk of natural disasters, temperate winters, and a fast-growing, business-friendly environment make Phoenix an ideal option for colocation IT infrastructure, such as DataBank’s Phoenix data centers. DataBank’s facilities are conveniently located across the metro including downtown Phoenix, near the airport, and off I-10 on the way to Tucson. Amenities include package services, on-site parking, conference room, and break rooms.
