DatacenteractiveIA · Microsoft
Microsoft is an operating datacenter facility in IA, operated by Microsoft. It spans approximately 247,197 square feet. Existing datacenter clusters are a strong signal for new development: they confirm power availability, fiber peering, and a permitting precedent — which is why nearby candidate sites often inherit the same speed-to-power advantages.
