Washington, D.C.-based DBT-DATA has completed the purchase of its fifth data center,  the 13-acre Cyber Integration Center in Harrisonburg.

DBT-DATA is a real estate investment and development firm that designs, constructs, owns and operates technology-related real estate properties. It has four data center properties in Ashburn, an area through which 60 percent of the nation’s Internet traffic travels on a daily basis.

The company said its newly acquired property is the only data center in Maryland and Virginia with a Tier III certification from the Uptime Institute, which sets industry standards for a data center performance and efficiency.

The facility also possesses a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Silver certification.

David Tolson, president of DBT Development, said demand for federal government and private sector data storage is enormous in the greater Washington area.

DBT-DATA said it will operate the Harrisonburg facility to meet the strictest standards required by the federal government and private enterprise.
