Named “East US 3”, the data center region will extend across Fulton and Douglas Counties, providing Microsoft Azure cloud services to customers in the immediate region, but also in the rest of the US and around the world. The region will deliver an Azure Availability Zone, which means that data centers located in different physical sites across the region will each be equipped with independent power, cooling and networking.
