Microsoft is opening a new cloud-computing data center region in Georgia in the US, as part of a wider move to expand its presence in Atlanta that will effectively make the area the company’s third largest hub in the country after Puget Sound and Silicon Valley.
Named “East US 3”, the data center region will extend across Fulton and Douglas Counties, providing Microsoft Azure cloud services to customers in the immediate region, but also in the rest of the US and around the world.
