DataBank: Ashburn Red Rum Campus
Campus at a Glance
DataBank's Ashburn campus occupies 18 acres on Red Rum Drive in Loudoun County's Data Center Alley, a short drive from Ashburn Technology Park. Three buildings face each other across the street:
- IAD1 (21635 Red Rum Drive): the original Latisys facility, acquired by Zayo (zColo) in February 2015 and by DataBank in December 2020.
- IAD3 (21630 Red Rum Drive): purpose-built by DataBank.
- IAD4 (21625 Red Rum Drive): the third building, on the adjoining 5-acre parcel that took the campus from 13 to 18 acres.
The campus is carrier-dense (Cogent, Comcast, Cox, Equinix, FiberLight, Lumen, Verizon and Zayo among the on-site networks) and sits in the world's largest data center market.
