Located at 43791 Devin Shafron Drive in Ashburn, Virginia, Digital Realty’s IAD14 facility is part of the expansive Ashburn Campus, strategically positioned on 98 acres in the heart of the Dulles technology corridor. Just 10 minutes from Washington Dulles International Airport and adjacent to the future Metro rail station, this data center benefits from its close proximity to the MAE East Internet Exchange Point, providing premier connectivity and access to a robust fiber network infrastructure.
The IAD14 facility offers 135,000 square feet of total building space, with 51,400 square feet of fully built-out whitespace and a critical power capacity of 6.9 megawatts. Designed to support both Turn-Key Data Centers and Powered Base Building (PBB) configurations, the facility features a robust 2N UPS redundancy and N+1 cooling redundancy, ensuring high availability and operational reliability.
Digital Realty's Ashburn Campus is powered by 230 megawatts of utility capacity delivered through two dedicated substations—the Greenway and Enterprise Substations—both located on Digital Realty’s property. Power is distributed via underground, concrete-encased duct banks, connecting to one of the most reliable transmission systems in the country. This infrastructure offers not only reliability but also cost-effective power rates below the national average.
Security is a top priority at IAD14. The facility is located on a secure campus protected by perimeter fencing, manned guard gates, berms, and hard-scaping. Each building features a single, secure entry point with card-key access and a 24x7x365 staffed guard station. Additional layers of security include CCTV surveillance, biometric access controls, and continuous on-site security personnel presence.
Digital Realty offers a full range of colocation services at IAD14, including full and partial cabinets, shared rackspace, cages, suites, and footprints. Remote hands services are also available, providing additional support for on-site equipment management. This flexibility ensures that clients can scale their infrastructure to meet evolving needs.
The IAD14 data center adheres to the highest industry standards and is certified for a wide range of compliance frameworks. Certifications include PCI DSS, ISO 27001, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, LEED Silver, SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II, and SOC 3 Type 2. These certifications underscore Digital Realty’s commitment to operational excellence, data security, and environmental responsibility.
