Relera previously announced that 11 of its 25 planned data centers would be near existing Level 3 centers. Relera offers co-location, system administration, data backup and security services to technology companies, Internet content providers and other businesses.

Analysts say data centers can help companies save money by reducing the number of information technology workers needed and increasing security. At its Charlotte facility, Relera will employ about 10 salespeople and six data center workers, according to a published report.

Relera has $300 million in venture capital from Bank of America Capital Partners and Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, according to a published report. Other cities in the initial rollout include Richmond, VA; Memphis, TN; Las Vegas; San Antonio, TX; Sacramento, CA and Salt Lake City.
