Status: Operational | Location: 8500 Vicar Drive, San Antonio, TX 78218, USA
The San Antonio Data Center facility, located at 8500 Vicar Drive in San Antonio, Texas, operates as a secure mission-critical enterprise colocation center developed by Five 9s Digital. Situated on the city's northeast side near Windcrest, the facility occupies a single-story hardened concrete building spanning approximately 42,300 square feet and is designed to support corporate IT infrastructure, disaster recovery environments, cloud deployments, and other business-critical workloads. The site provides approximately 4 megawatts of total critical utility power capacity, offering a resilient foundation for enterprise computing and colocation requirements. Electrical infrastructure is supplied through redundant CPS Energy utility substation feeds, providing diverse power pathways and strengthening overall availability. Static uninterruptible power supply configurations protect critical IT systems from electrical disturbances, while dedicated onsite standby emergency diesel generators with multi-day fuel reserves provide additional backup capability during prolonged utility interruptions. The facility is engineered with an emphasis on physical security, operational reliability, and efficient environmental management. Closed-loop precision air cooling units are utilized to maintain stable temperature conditions across the server halls, while raised access flooring supports effective airflow distribution and enables flexible deployment of power and network cabling beneath the computing environment. As a carrier-neutral data center, the facility provides subterranean fiber entrances designed to support diverse telecommunications connectivity and reduce dependence on individual network routes. Customers can access local telecommunications providers and regional fiber backbones extending across Texas, enabling reliable connectivity for enterprise applications, disaster recovery operations, cloud services, and network-intensive workloads. Its combination of hardened construction, redundant power infrastructure, backup generation, efficient cooling, and carrier-neutral connectivity makes the Five 9s Digital San Antonio facility a dependable platform for organizations requiring secure and resilient data center capacity in the San Antonio metropolitan area.
