The Atlanta Journal-Constitution covers DataBank’s nearly 100-acre acquisition near Lithia Springs for what CEO Raul Martynek describes as a $2 billion investment in the company’s fifth and largest Atlanta data center campus. The article contextualizes the development within Atlanta’s emergence as a major data center hub driven by capacity constraints in Northern Virginia.
The new campus will feature two massive data center warehouses with more than one million square feet of space and access to 180 megawatts of capacity. The site sits within half a mile of DataBank’s existing 18-acre property where the ATL4 facility is under construction, with the new development expected to become operational by 2025 or 2026.
“If you think about anything and everything humans do related to smart technology, we ultimately need more data center capacity as we continue to adopt and consume more information.”
— Raul Martynek, CEO of DataBank
