EMEA data centers

Iron Mountain Data Centers operates Europe data centers across four strategic mark — London (40.200+ m² / 61 MW), Frankfurt (64.500 m² / 38 MW), Amsterdam (30.000 m² / 43,1 MW), and Madrid (60.000 m² campus / 79 MW in development across 8 planned data centers)— spanning four countries at the heart of Europe's most connected data ecosystems. Through a minority equity stake in Syntys, Iron Mountain also extends its reach into the Qatar and MENA region.

The leading European colocation and data center markets are Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, and Paris — collectively known as the FLAP markets — along with Dublin (FLAPD). London is the world’s second-largest data center market, with over 1 GW of capacity; Frankfurt is the fourth-largest globally and home to DE-CIX, the world’s busiest internet exchange. Fast-growing secondary markets, including Madrid, Milan, Berlin, and Oslo, are expected to add significant capacity through 2029. Iron Mountain has strategic presence in three of Europe’s top five markets — London, Frankfurt, and Amsterdam — plus Madrid, one of the continent’s highest-growth secondary hubs.

Iron Mountain’s European data centers maintain a comprehensive suite of certifications aligned with EU and international standards, including ISO 27001, ISO 50001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 9001, SOC 2 Type II, SOC 3, and PCI-DSS. Our Frankfurt facilities support customers subject to KRITIS requirements, and our Madrid campus supports ENS (Esquema Nacional de Seguridad) obligations. Our compliance program covers EU-specific frameworks and industry requirements across financial services, healthcare, and other highly regulated industries.

Iron Mountain stands out among EMEA & European data center companies through our 75+ years of trusted expertise, our 24/7 Carbon-Free Energy commitment, and our carrier-neutral, cloud-neutral approach across all European facilities.
