What is the difference between housing and colocation?

None: “housing” and “colocation” mean the same thing — hosting your own servers in a third-party data center, as opposed to renting a dedicated server or public cloud.

Which data centers in Memphis are ISO 27001 certified?

Filter by certification (ISO 27001, HDS, PCI-DSS) in the comparator to keep only compliant sites.

What does a rack in Memphis really cost?

Beyond listed prices, here is the computed cost of a standard 5 kW rack in Memphis, from our open market model (published method, version 2026.07-v1):

What Memphis allows

Memphis has 4 data centers, operated by EdgeConneX Inc., DataBank, Ltd., Expedient, Lumen Technologies Inc. Declared design level: Tier III. That level describes the building's redundancy, not a contractual availability commitment: only the contract carries one.

Connectivity from Memphis

6 networks are listed at the sites in Memphis according to public interconnection registries. That number drives your negotiating power: every carrier inside the building is one more quote, with no civil works.

Compliance and sovereignty

Note: operation falls under a US-jurisdiction company, hence under the CLOUD Act. Hosting in Europe is not enough to escape it: what counts is the provider's nationality, not the building's address.

The electricity behind Memphis

A city has no electricity of its own: the sites in Memphis are connected to the national grid, itself interconnected with its neighbours. What is measured, and what decides, is therefore the country's generation mix. No single source dominates it: the largest, natural gas, supplies only 40% (2025). The detail: natural gas 40%, nuclear 17.4%, coal 16.3%, wind 10.3%, solar 8.6%, hydro 5.3%. Fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) account for 57% of it. A kilowatt-hour there weighs 384 g of CO2, i.e. 1.2 times less than the world average (458 g), 2025 figure. Concretely: a 3 kVA rack, in a site with a PUE of 1.5, draws 35,478 kWh a year and therefore emits 13.6 tonnes of CO2 a year here. The same rack, same hardware, same PUE, would emit 16 tonnes on a world-average grid. The building has nothing to do with it: the country does.

What the ground has done under Memphis

No earthquake of magnitude 5 or above has been recorded within 200 km of Memphis since 1970, according to the US Geological Survey's global catalog. This record covers 56 years, which is short on a seismic timescale: no recorded earthquake does not mean no hazard. It does not replace the statutory zoning, which alone binds construction.

What Memphis does not allow

No Internet exchange point is listed here: traffic will run over transit bought from a carrier, which is billed by bandwidth. No rate is published by the operators in this city: pricing is on request, and we do not estimate it on their behalf.

Other cities with data centers near Memphis

The nearest site outside Memphis is 57 km away, in Fayetteville (2 sites). Short distances matter: they drive the cost of a link between two buildings, and whether a backup site is workable.
