Their Weehawken datacenter is a critical colocation and interconnection hub, and serves as a strategic redundant datacenter for the New York metro area. The 312,000-square-foot four-story facility has redundant 13.2Kv utility feeds providing 14MW of utility capacity. The datacenter has unconditioned access to a variety of peer exchanges and networks, including connectivity to over 1000 provider networks, multiple Internet Exchanges, Open IX Peering Exchange and Ethernet Exchange. Additionally, tenants may also directly access other Digital Realty customers located within other NYC facilities.

The New Jersey datacenter market has grown tremendously over the past years. The market continues to see demand and activity from datacenter operators and users, especially due to New Jersey’s robust infrastructure and favorable business climate which encourages entrepreneurship. The financial implosion of 2009 helped enormously to boost the colocation market as providers scoured New Jersey – especially the Northern region – for sites and opportunities to offer solutions to them. Demand for colocation services in New Jersey is driven predominantly by the financial services industry. However, according to a 451 Research report, social media, healthcare and tech companies are becoming a more and more solid part of the tenant base. New Jersey is a popular datacenter market nationwide mainly due to its close proximity to New York. Wholesale and retail colocation are much cheaper in New Jersey than in New York, which results in many more colo tenants for the New Jersey datacenters.
