Data Center Campus
Microsoft: Union City Campus
Campus at a Glance
Microsoft is the end user of a $1.8 billion data center campus in Union City, southwest of Atlanta. EdgeConneX owns, builds, and operates the campus as ATL11 through ATL13. Microsoft leases the buildings.
- An EdgeConneX affiliate bought the site along Stonewall Tell Road from a TA Realty affiliate in July 2024 for $318.5 million. TA Realty's TA Digital Group handled power procurement, zoning, and entitlements.
- The Development Authority of Fulton County approved $75 million in tax savings over 10 years. The motion requires all three phases to be complete no later than 2032.
- The campus has three buildings of about 612,000 square feet each. The project is expected to create 400 to 600 construction jobs.

Operating Company
Microsoft uses Containers (called ITPACs) to build out its data centers. These Containers are Shipping Containers fitted with all the necessary climate control, networking, server racks and other hardware necessary to be a “mini” data center all in one.
Azure Regions
An Azure region is a set of data centers deployed within a latency-defined perimeter and connected through a dedicated regional low-latency network.
With more global regions than any other cloud provider, Azure gives customers the flexibility to deploy applications where they need to. Azure is generally available in 46 regions around the world, with plans announced for 8 additional regions.
Geographies
An Azure geography is a discrete market, typically containing two or more regions, that preserves data residency and compliance boundaries.
Geographies allow customers with specific data-residency and compliance needs to keep their data and applications close. Geographies are fault-tolerant to withstand complete region failure through their connection to our dedicated high-capacity networking infrastructure.
Availability Zones
Availability Zones are physically separate locations within an Azure region. Each Availability Zone is made up of one or more data centers equipped with independent power, cooling, and networking.
Availability Zones allow customers to run mission-critical applications with high availability and low-latency replication.
