Multi-use data center that can be used for co-location

"We are thrilled to offer a multi-use data center that can be used for co-location, disaster recovery, and cloud-based initiatives," said John Snider, president and chief executive officer of NOVA Corporation.  "Afterwards looking at several different sites, NOVA Corporation determined that New Mexico was the best place for the data center due a number of factors including its geographic location.  Geographically, Albuquerque provides a stable location without serious risk of natural disasters, ability to utilize ambient air cooling, and reduced risk of targeted threat to the area.  It is as well located nearly the Navajo Nation which will allow us to generate jobs and incubate businesses for the Navajo people."

"This project is a light in a dark economy," said Randy Asselin, data center project director for NOVA Corporation.  "This is an incredible value proposition for national and global organizations that need significant high performance computing space in a tier three data center however would prefer not to invest the Cap Ex.  These are companies that are revamping their data strategy and either expanding or consolidating their data center use.  NOVA is as well an ideal partner for other data center service providers that do not have the capital to transition their current power infrastructure to a high performance one."
