DataBank DFW12 Red Oak Hyperscale AI Campus

Status: Active Development / Under Construction (Phase 1 Buildout)   |   Location: 3440 Batchler Road, Red Oak, TX 75154, Ellis County, Texas, United States

Project Overview

The DataBank DFW12 Red Oak Data Center is a planned hyperscale facility located at 3440 Batchler Road in Red Oak, Texas, within the southern Dallas–Fort Worth technology corridor. The project represents the fourth planned two-story data center structure within DataBank’s 292-acre Red Oak campus, a large-scale development with a stated planned capacity of 480 MW. As part of this broader campus, DFW12 contributes to DataBank’s strategy of expanding high-capacity digital infrastructure to serve growing demand for cloud computing, enterprise IT, and data-intensive workloads. Its location within the Dallas–Fort Worth region places it in one of the major technology and connectivity markets in the United States.

The planned two-story design reflects a campus development approach that accommodates substantial computing infrastructure within a coordinated site. Hyperscale data centers provide the power, cooling, network connectivity, and physical security needed to support large deployments of servers and storage systems. As demand for cloud services and artificial intelligence grows, facilities of this type are increasingly important to organizations operating distributed digital platforms and computationally intensive applications. DFW12’s role within the Red Oak campus will depend on its individual building specifications and how its capacity is integrated into the wider development. The stated 480 MW figure applies to the overall campus plan, not necessarily to DFW12 alone. Specific details about the building’s individual IT load, investment value, construction timeline, cooling technologies, and commissioning date have not been provided in the supplied information.

Red Oak’s position south of Dallas places the project within a metropolitan region supported by enterprise activity, telecommunications infrastructure, and a substantial business ecosystem. A multi-building campus can allow capacity to be developed in stages while sharing supporting infrastructure across the site. For DataBank, the Red Oak development provides a platform for scaling data center capacity as customer requirements evolve. The ultimate contribution of DFW12 will depend on construction progress, power delivery, and the deployment schedule for the wider campus. Overall, DFW12 represents a planned addition to DataBank’s large-scale Red Oak development, reinforcing the role of the Dallas–Fort Worth corridor in the expanding U.S. data center market.
