Flexential has finalized the acquisition of its Douglasville 2 and Norcross sites in the Atlanta area, strengthening its position in one of the nation’s fastest-growing data center markets.
These purchases give Flexential full ownership of its Atlanta data center footprint, which also includes Douglasville 1, acquired in 2023, and Alpharetta. This portfolio-wide transition from leasing to ownership allows the company to make long-term infrastructure investments and deliver consistent service to its customers while offering greater operational agility.
“Atlanta data center capacity is in great demand, and owning these facilities strengthens our ability to provide long-term reliability and scalability across the Southeast and beyond,” said Ryan Mallory, President and COO of Flexential. “Full control of our infrastructure real estate enables us to continue to invest in enhancements, ensure pricing stability, and reinforce our commitment to secure, high-performance solutions for our customers.”
Douglasville 2, at 1750 N. River Road, is a 358,000-square-foot facility designed to optimize high-density colocation workloads. It offers 36 MW capacity and chilled water piping technology to deliver low-latency network connectivity.
Norcross, located at 2775 Northwoods Parkway, is Flexential’s Atlanta hub for cloud and data protection, along with colocation solution capability. A 1.8 MW, 32,740-square-foot facility, it provides premium connectivity through a scalable 100-gigabit network backbone and reliable access to more than 80 carriers to ensure cost-efficient, high-performance connectivity with built-in redundancy.
Atlanta, recently recognized by CBRE as the national leader in data center net absorption, has emerged as a prime location for technology enterprises in recent years because of supportive tax incentives, robust fiber infrastructure, affordable power, and a low disaster risk. These conditions make Atlanta a reliable base for digital operations in industries such as finance, health care, telecommunications, and banking.
Flexential operates 40 data centers across 18 U.S. markets and has more than 330 MW of built and under-development capacity to support enterprise digital transformation, cloud adoption, and the growing demands of hyperscale and AI workloads. Its FlexAnywhere platform integrates colocation, cloud, connectivity, and data protection with managed and professional services to give businesses scalable and secure IT infrastructure solutions.
The company received an investment from Morgan Stanley Infrastructure Partners (MSIP) in October and, alongside continuing support from GI Partners, continues to expand its growth strategy and strengthen its national presence.
