The new 25,000 square foot state-of-the-art multi-tenant data center is now officially open in Greenville. DC BLOX has announced that it’s new facility is open for business.
“We are excited to announce that our new Greenville data center is ready and open for business. As promised, this first Tier III-designed data center in this market was built specifically to accelerate the deployment of critical infrastructure and interconnected cloud services throughout South Carolina. We have seen robust pre-leasing activity as the Upstate is thriving, and we are thrilled to be able to contribute to the region’s future growth,” comments Jeff Uphues, CEO of DC BLOX.”
“DC BLOX’s purpose-built data center facility is located in Greenville’s Global Business Park off of Interstate 85 and will have a capacity of 54,000 square feet of white space and 18MW of power at full build-out. The multi-tenant data center was designed to meet the need for local, reliable, world-class colocation to enable the region’s future growth. Previously, companies in the region looking for this class of facility were forced to house their IT infrastructure in Charlotte or Atlanta.”
The way I read this is that this opens the door to South Carolina and specifically the Upstate area to start to see more IT-related companies start to develop footprints in the area. It’s just another sign of the continued growth of South Carolina.
