Looking for San Antonio Data Centers? Try Austin
To be successful as a colocation facility, a data center needs to be in an area that offers dense fiber connectivity and diverse technology resources. For central Texas that leaves two choices: San Antonio and Austin. However, in spite of rapid economic growth, there aren’t many premier choices for colocation in San Antonio.
Dallas Risk Assessment
The Dallas area is not the ideal data center location for companies that don’t require a footprint in the area for business purposes. Some companies have determined Dallas colocation to be unsafe due to the high risk of natural disasters. Dallas is in a high-risk region known as Tornado Alley, and counties in the Dallas area rank as the riskiest for tornadoes in the state of Texas. Since 1957, Dallas has seen over 60 major tornadoes classified as F2 or higher. F2 tornadoes are ranked for causing considerable damage and have wind speeds up to 157 mph. In recent years, massive tornadoes have ripped through the Dallas area causing over $1 billion in damages per incident. Additionally, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) concluded that the risk for earthquakes in the Dallas area increased tenfold in 2016.
