“For more than 16 years, ViaWest has grown significantly by offering the highest-quality data center services in the industry, and we are proud to now have 29 data centers supporting nearly 1,500 customers,” said Nancy Phillips, president and CEO of ViaWest. “And it is no coincidence that three of our 29 data centers are located in Oregon. The fact that Oregon does not have a state sales tax and offers attractive tax incentive programs helps draw customers from neighboring states like California and Washington who are looking for more affordable data center alternatives.”
Energy also played a role in initially attracting ViaWest to Oregon. The state is known for low power costs and is the third-largest renewable energy producing state in the nation. ViaWest designed the Brookwood data center with redundant medium voltage power feeds, backed by an on-site generator plant.
