The Lansing operation formally announced today opened on Aug. 18 and is the company’s first in the north central U.S. It connects to the Chicago market and sits close to gaming and other latency-sensitive customers in the region.

“We’ve grown our data center footprint by 23 percent this year, and we’re constantly adding capacity to ensure our customers have room to grow, whether that’s more servers by the hour with Scalable Bare Metal or the power density that GPU workloads demand,” says Isaac Douglas, general manager of Servers.com by Nexcess.
“We’ve built our reputation with fast-growing mid-market businesses, and the investments we’ve made this year mean we’re ready to support enterprise customers at any scale.”
Scalable Bare Metal (SBM) offers server hosting billed by the hour. SBM is intended to make it easy to deploy high-performance dedicated servers quickly and on the user’s terms. SBM reportedly is “ideal for scaling and burst workloads.”
SBM is available to Servers.com customers in Dallas-Fort Worth, Washington, D.C., Amsterdam, and an existing facility in San Francisco.
