EdgeConneX New Albany – Phase I is a planned hyperscale digital infrastructure development located on a 49-acre site at 9850 Innovation Campus Way in Johnstown, Licking County, Ohio, United States. The project expands EdgeConneX's presence in the Greater Columbus metropolitan area, particularly within the rapidly developing New Albany technology corridor, which has emerged as a major hyperscale data center destination in the Midwest. Designed to support next-generation computing requirements, the facility is intended to accommodate artificial intelligence model training, high-performance computing (HPC) and large-scale cloud services. These workloads require substantial processing capacity and specialized infrastructure to handle growing volumes of data and increasingly complex computing tasks. Its location within the New Albany corridor provides access to an expanding digital infrastructure ecosystem, supported by technology investment, enterprise demand and regional connectivity networks. The 49-acre site offers space for the development of dedicated data center buildings and supporting infrastructure, positioning the project to contribute to the region's expanding hyperscale capacity. EdgeConneX's investment also reflects the growing importance of Ohio as an alternative to traditionally concentrated data center markets, particularly as cloud providers and AI infrastructure operators seek additional locations for large-scale computing facilities. The Greater Columbus region has attracted significant digital infrastructure development, strengthening its role in supporting cloud platforms, enterprise technology and AI-related workloads. Through Phase I, EdgeConneX aims to establish additional computing capacity within this expanding market. If delivered as planned, the development will contribute to the Midwest's growing data center ecosystem and support the infrastructure requirements of businesses and technology providers adopting advanced cloud and artificial intelligence applications.
