Microsoft: Stover North CLT17

Short Code: CLT17
Year Planned: 2027
Lot Size: 158 acres
  • Project Update: Following a temporary seven-month construction pause that began mid-2025, Microsoft coordinated a full re-mobilization at the campus in early 2026. Crews have since advanced notable development at the substation level, alongside specialized earthwork and site setup.

Microsoft began initial development on the Stover North data center campus in July 2024. The site encompasses roughly 160 acres. The scope of the project involves the construction of five single-story data center buildings alongside supporting infrastructure, campus amenities, and a dedicated Duke Energy Substation

Operating Company

Operated by:

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.
