STRASBOURG – IN THE CENTER OF EUROPE
LOCATION
With the Strasbourg port area a location was chosen for datadock that constitutes the perfect site for a state-of-the-art data center due to several reasons. The site's first advantage is Strasbourg's central position in the midst of the largest European economic region. This location guarantees an outstanding infrastructure of the area and short channels of supply in all directions.
Furthermore, datadock is situated at the main route for European glass fiber pipelines. For that reason a perfect connection to Germany, France, all of Europe and also the rest of the world is ensured (see Connection).
Last but not least the excellent soil conditions, and what's even more the inexhaustible groundwater supplies of the area, were crucial factors for the decision. It would not have been possible at another location to realize such an eco-friendly and innovative well cooling system with specially built 80 m deep wells. And only with this cooling concept can datadock keep its power consumption so low that is has such outstanding power efficiency.
