We were delighted to have around 100 guests join us as we officially celebrated the grand opening of our Texas 2 data center last Thursday evening. Everyone enjoyed poke, shrimp and grits, and a salsa and queso bar (in true Texas fashion) as well as tasty hors d’oeuvres. The majority of guests participated in guided tours of the data center and visited the data halls, mechanical plant, office space and learned about the facility’s redundant infrastructure and security features.

President Shane Menking welcomed everyone to the new data center and congratulated staff on their hard work and dedication that made the completion of Texas 2 a reality, “Texas 2 represents the culmination of our team’s 23+ years of experience in the design and construction of world class data centers, and we are all proud to be part of today’s celebration of that success.”

Guests also played VR games, worked on their golf swing and won raffle prizes, including Best Buy, Amazon and Golf Tec gift cards as well as a Yeti cooler package. Thanks to everyone who joined us to celebrate this milestone, and we hope to see you all around one of our data center campuses again soon! Learn more about Texas 2.
