The climate and green hydroelectricity options reduce energy costs

significantly. As a hub for domestic and international

carrier routes, Seattle is perfect for markets across the northwestern U.S.

and is a gateway to Asia.



Another driving force is the recent re-adoption of tax incentives for data centers. There are a wide number of

diverse industries requiring data center space, but there are large data centers in Seattle that can

accommodate that demand.



Here’s a list of five of the Seattle colocation providers

with the most square footage:



1. Equinix• The Seattle location of Equinix contains over 53,000 square feet of colocation space. • There is an ability to interconnect directly to over 100 companies collocated here, and connection options for more than 40 network service providers. •Designed to meet Seismic Zone 3 specifications, this data center is not only large but secure.

more than size.The services, energy savings, reliability, security, and disaster recovery features

are significant as well.

centers in Seattle. In fact, there are over 40 colocation data centers, with more in nearby towns like

Redmond, home of Microsoft.

any sized company.
