SAN JOSE—Due to the continued and increased use of cloud data storage, data centers continue to be in demand here and in other parts of the country. A couple of Silicon Valley examples have either opened or been announced for completion in the coming year.
The global interconnection and data center company, Equinix, recently celebrated the opening of its newest International Business Exchange co-location facility, known as SV10, located adjacent to SV1 and SV5 located on Great Oaks in South San Jose. SV10 is a nearly 195,000-square-foot facility that provides colocation service to Silicon Valley tech companies. This is one of 13 Equinix data centers in Silicon Valley.
Phase one will provide 37,000 square feet of colocation capacity, about 930 cabinets, with capacity for 2,820 cabinets, according to San Jose Office of Economic Development. Equinix's SV10 is part of a $122M build-out, part of a $400 million investment in its Great Oaks facility, with capacity for future expansion.
