Arista Building $210M Data Center in Texas

The Pflugerville Community Development Corporation (PCDC) announced this week that Arista Data Centers would be building a $210 million data center campus in Pflugerville, located 16 miles northeast of Austin and just south of Round Rock in Texas. According to a KXAN report, Arista is working with the HP Critical Facilities Implementation service to have a single point of contact to design, construct and project manage the construction of the data center campus, with Dallas-based StructureTone committed to constructing the buildings.

"This project brings a large number of high-quality employment opportunities to our community, which is one of the most highly educated, trained and qualified in the state," said PCDC Executive Director Floyd Akers. "In this case, Pflugerville and Arista are a perfect match because we want to attract promising, progressive, green-minded companies and Arista needed to locate in an area that offered deregulated electricity in a pro-business community." The project is expected to bring at least 170 jobs to the community within 10 years—including 25 jobs within 4 years—each with at least $67,500 annual salary plus medical benefits.
