Amid the rise in artificial intelligence (AI) and enterprise edge demands, Involta recently announced it is expanding capacity in one of the country’s highly sought-after secondary markets. With this expansion, capacity at the third-generation facility increases to 1.0MW.
The added capacity to Tucson’s 38,000+-square-foot data center will enable enterprises across the growing tech hub to scale rapidly and optimize digital and AI-focused initiatives. Tucson is seeing an increase in local enterprises and healthcare organizations looking for high-performance, secure infrastructure solutions delivered rapidly. Additionally, 70% of Arizona Commerce Authority pipeline projects are manufacturing-related, designating the state as a manufacturing hub, which critically needs more data center capacity to support its evolution. Moreover, Tucson’s proximity to Phoenix, one of the largest U.S. data center and tech markets, allows enterprises to expand their reach in this secondary market while leveraging all that Phoenix has to offer.
