New Data Center Facility in Seattle
Equinix will add a new data center presence in Seattle, WA. The new data center will add significant capacity for Equinix,
which has two data centers in Seattle, including one at the Westin
Bulding. It also reflects Seattle’s growth as a data center market, and
an important gateway to the Asia-Pacific market.
The new Equinix site will add approximately 51,000 square feet of
data center space and capacity for more than 1,000 cabinet equivalents,
and support 4.1 megawatts of IT capacity. Equinix expects to invest
approximately $60 million to build the new IBX data center, which is
estimated to open in first quarter of 2013.
