The Prime Data Centers growth story continues to take flight with the announcement of the pre-lease of its LAX-01 data center by a large, publicly-traded technology company. The transaction secures 12 megawatts at Prime’s Los Angeles data center for delivery in Q4 of 2023. The new customer will use the capacity to optimize content delivery for its growing user base in the Southern California region.

“On behalf of everyone at Prime, I would like to welcome our newest customer to the Los Angeles market. Demand is strong at Prime LAX-01 thanks to its unique combination of reliable, wholesale data center capacity and access to hundreds of local, national and global networks. This creates an ideal data center environment for cloud providers, Internet businesses, technology companies, and the content-centric enterprise.” – Nicholas Laag, Chief Executive Officer of Prime Data Centers
