It starts with a deliberate decision to rethink what a data center company needs to be: Not just a provider of space and power, but a dynamic platform that grows, adapts, and delivers alongside the enterprises it serves.
Geographic Footprint
Enterprise IT doesn’t live in one place, and neither does DataBank’s infrastructure. With 70+ data centers across 25+ U.S. metros, DataBank puts enterprise applications and data within 100 miles of over 60% of the U.S. population. This geographic diversity delivers the low-latency performance, redundancy, and distributed scale demanding workloads require, from AI inference to whatever comes next.
Resilience matters as much as geography, and DataBank builds for both. Our facilities are positioned across strategic metros, placing primary and failover infrastructure close enough to perform, yet far enough apart to stay protected. From coast to coast, DataBank’s geographic strategy gives enterprises the reach, control, and flexibility their IT infrastructure demands.
Facility Design
Every enterprise’s infrastructure needs are different, and your strategy should reflect that. Connect with DataBank to discuss the challenges you’re solving and the infrastructure strategy built to address them.
Network Assets
Whatever the destination, whatever the workload, whatever the infrastructure, DataBank’s interconnection ecosystem is built to handle it all.
Moving data quickly and reliably across environments is a baseline requirement for modern enterprise IT. DataBank’s network infrastructure makes that connectivity fast, flexible, and friction-free, regardless of where workloads live or where they need to reach. It’s backed by carrier-dense facilities, direct cloud on-ramps, and metro and long-haul network reach, giving enterprises the routing options to connect wherever their businesses take them.
DataBank’s connectivity ecosystem is built on four distinct components:
Solution Architecture
Security & Compliance
For organizations managing critical IT infrastructure, security and compliance aren’t features to check off a list. They’re foundational requirements that touch every layer of the environment, and DataBank treats them as a leadership priority, not an operational checkbox.
That commitment drives a compliance framework comprehensive enough to address the most demanding regulatory environments, from FedRAMP and HIPAA to PCI-DSS, GDPR, ITAR, and beyond, and deep enough to cover up to 80% of mandated controls on customers’ behalf. Most data center operators cover as little as 10%.
The result is a compliance coverage that reduces the burden on IT teams while giving them full transparency through DataBank’s management portals, where compliance reports, security documentation, and audit materials are available on demand.
Gapless Support
DataBank builds support into the foundation of every customer relationship. Not as a feature, but as an operating principle, delivered through people and technology working in tandem.
Ownership Culture
Great infrastructure starts with great people.
That’s not a slogan at DataBank. It’s the organizing principle behind how the company recruits, develops, and operates every day.
DataBank has deliberately built a workplace where the behaviors that matter most to customers — precision, accountability, and genuine ownership — are recognized, celebrated, and reinforced constantly.
The results speak for themselves. DataBank has earned multiple Great Place to Work recognitions, and the most recent certification backed it up with hard numbers: 95% employee approval, 38 points higher than the average company.
A big part of that is a company-wide Employee Ownership program, giving every DataBanker, from the C-suite to front-line data center technicians, a stake in the outcome. That stake changes how people show up, and it’s why DataBank’s teams go the extra mile for customers rather than just showing up for a shift.
Committed Investors
The infrastructure decisions enterprises make today have consequences that play out over years.
That makes the stability and long-term orientation of DataBank’s investor base more than a financial footnote. It’s a competitive advantage.
DataBank’s investors bring decades of experience across the full digital infrastructure landscape, from data centers and fiber networks to cloud and beyond. That perspective gives DataBank visibility into where the industry is heading, and the capital to act on it ahead of the curve. It’s patient, scalable capital committed to long-term growth over short-term returns.
For organizations evaluating infrastructure partners, that matters. Partnering with DataBank means partnering with a company that has the financial foundation and investor conviction to be a reliable, growing partner for the long term.
