Cologix acquired DataCenter.BZ in February 2014,[4] procuring 86,000 square feet[5] across two data center facilities at 555 Scherers Court in Columbus, Ohio. The site is located at the intersection of two trunks of nationwide fiber optic network that carries most Internet transmissions.[6] Cologix is currently building a 160K SQF (half of that raised floor space), 18+MW data center on its existing 8 acre campus in Columbus. The new $130M+ facility will become Columbus's largest neutral data center and will be directly linked to Cologix's existing data centers, offering connectivity to 45+ network service providers, 20+ cloud service providers and the Ohio-IX Internet Exchange. The data center is built based on a concurrently maintainable design with 2N power and N+1 cooling. Further attributes include an EF-4 tornado rating, K-rated perimeter fence and 24x7 guards. The redundancy, scale, security and connectivity enables Cologix to address growing market demand ranging from individual cabinets to multi-megawatt deployments.[7]
