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

What Katowice allows

Katowice has 8 data centers, operated by Atman Sp. z o.o., Quicktel Sp. z o.o., MCG Jakub Skorek, PSE Poludnie S.A..

Connectivity from Katowice

12 networks are listed at the sites in Katowice according to public interconnection registries. That number drives your negotiating power: every carrier inside the building is one more quote, with no civil works. 2 Internet exchange points are reachable from these sites, which cuts latency to the large content networks and the cost of transit. The large networks reachable directly from these sites, without buying transit, are Amazon Web Services, Google, Microsoft Azure, OVHcloud, Scaleway, Meta, Netflix, Akamai and 1 more: they are present at the exchange points where 2 of the 8 sites in the city are points of presence. Reaching your cloud over an exchange point rather than the public Internet changes latency, and above all the price of data egress.

Compliance and sovereignty

Sites in this city are operated by companies outside US jurisdiction, hence outside the CLOUD Act.

The electricity behind Katowice

A city has no electricity of its own: the sites in Katowice are connected to the national grid, itself interconnected with its neighbours. What is measured, and what decides, is therefore the country's generation mix. That grid draws 50.4% of its electricity from coal (2025). The detail: coal 50.4%, natural gas 14.3%, wind 14.2%, solar 11.3%, bioenergy 4.9%, oil (fuel oil, diesel) 3.8%. Fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil) account for 68.5% of it. A kilowatt-hour there weighs 589 g of CO2, i.e. 1.3 times 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 20.9 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 Katowice

Since 1970, 1 earthquake of magnitude 5 or above has been recorded within 100 km of Katowice, and 1 within 200 km. The strongest: magnitude 5.1 in 1983, 44 km away. 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 Katowice does not allow

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 Katowice

The nearest site outside Katowice is 17 km away, in Zabrze. Short distances matter: they drive the cost of a link between two buildings, and whether a backup site is workable.
