Why Houston?
Houston’s booming economy and central location make it the perfect choice for Serverfarm’s data center expansion. As the 7th largest metro economy in the U.S., the city offers a favorable business climate, a skilled workforce, and proximity to key energy resources. These factors make it an ideal hub for serving the growing needs of hyperscale and tech companies.
Houston’s strong energy infrastructure and reliable grid access also ensure the scalability needed for data center operations. With existing power capacity and on-site substations, Serverfarm can quickly scale its facilities to meet increasing demand while focusing on sustainability and innovation.

InCommand provides an FM NOC, offering consolidated alerts and alarms to streamline intelligent prioritization and resolution tracking. DMaaS powered by InCommand provides limitless room for clients to scale and innovate.
Sustainability
Serverfarm is doing our part to mitigate climate change, all while meeting our clients’ increasing capacity demands, by choosing to acquire and modernize existing facilities rather than build new. Reusing existing real estate helps to eliminate the carbon emissions required for a standard new construction building, resulting in a modeled 88% embodied carbon emission reduction. Buildings and construction directly represent around 39% of all annual global greenhouse gas emissions, so reducing the carbon produced by developing new buildings is an essential component to mitigating our global climate crisis.
