The rise and rise of Northern Virginia’s data center boom has continued largely unencumbered by a pandemic or a global supply chain shortage, with the region outpacing absorption levels by 7:1 in comparison to the second most active market in the country.

It is little surprise that a flood of investment into cloud-friendly, interconnection-rich facilities and a gradual ‘opening up’ of the world has spurred on multi-MW builds this year, though the landlords of digital infrastructure will need to a route to balance unchartered demand with profitable supply and green operation as they journey towards a net-zero future.

As we host the world’s leading voices on multi-site and multi-tenant computing, we will ask:

Soaring demand, component delays and labor shortages - is data center procurement broken?
What does the future hold for colocation in a cloud-first world?
