Situated in a 39-acre campus just 10 minutes east of downtown Phoenix–one of the lowest risk U.S. metros for natural disasters–, AZP-1 is a 588,669 ft², 41 MW data center, purpose-built on Arizona’s primary hub for east-west internet traffic, with a range of services and Uptime Tier III certification for documented reliability.

The data center offers exceptional levels of energy-efficiency with PUE as low as 1.2 and is connected via a 100 Gbit/s dark fiber ring with two other Iron Mountain facilities – AZP-2 (on the same campus) and AZS-1 in Scottsdale. This creates a huge and easily accessible ecosystem of cloud, network and other service providers for customers.
