Lightwave Online reports on DataBank’s 95-acre land acquisition near Lithia Springs to expand capacity in Atlanta’s growing data center market. The article emphasizes the strategic location complementing DataBank’s existing footprint and the technical capabilities of the new campus.
The new site sits within half a mile of DataBank’s 18-acre property where the ATL4 facility is under construction. The acquisition enables development of two multistory data centers totaling one million square feet with a 180MW Georgia Power substation delivering up to 120MW of critical IT power when fully deployed.
“Atlanta is one of the most sought-after markets for data center capacity across all segments of our customer base. And now with new AI applications coming online, we’re seeing an entirely new driver of demand that promises to make this an even more attractive market.”
— Raul K. Martynek, CEO of DataBank
The campus will leverage DataBank’s Universal Data Hall Design to quickly deploy capacity meeting diverse sustainability and performance requirements for enterprises, hyperscale cloud providers, and emerging AI applications requiring high power and cooling density.
