Status: Operational (Phase 1) / Active Multi-Building Campus Expansion Phase | Location: Dammam 2nd Industrial City, Dammam, Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia
Gulf Data Hub’s Dammam Data Center Campus in the Dammam 2nd Industrial City is a flagship 64 MW digital infrastructure development that strengthens Saudi Arabia’s position as a leading regional hub for cloud computing and enterprise digital services. Located in the Kingdom’s Eastern Province, the multi-phase campus is purpose-built to support sovereign cloud hosting, government initiatives, enterprise digital transformation, artificial intelligence (AI), and other high-density computing workloads. The development consists of four purpose-built 16 MW data center modules, providing scalable capacity for hyperscale cloud providers, telecommunications operators, and large enterprise customers while allowing future expansion in line with growing regional demand. Its strategic location near major industrial complexes, energy sector facilities, and key transportation corridors makes the campus an ideal platform for supporting mission-critical applications across Saudi Arabia’s industrial, commercial, and public sectors. Designed as a carrier-neutral facility, the campus offers direct connectivity to major Saudi telecommunications backbones, enabling resilient, low-latency network access and seamless integration with national and international digital ecosystems. The infrastructure incorporates 2N redundant power architecture, ensuring continuous availability and operational resilience for business-critical workloads. Engineered to perform efficiently in the extreme temperatures of the Gulf region, the campus features advanced, high-efficiency thermal management systems that optimise cooling performance while reducing energy consumption. Combined with enterprise-grade security, resilient infrastructure, scalable power capacity, and sustainable operational design, Gulf Data Hub’s Dammam Data Center Campus provides a future-ready platform for sovereign cloud, hyperscale deployments, AI, and next-generation digital transformation initiatives across Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East.
