Twitter Opens First East Coast Data Center

Shortly after announcing its 100 million active user milestone, Twitter is expanding. To the relief of many who remember the fail whale days, Twitter will be adding another data center to keep things rolling along smoothly, this time on the East Coast.

As Data Center Knowledge reports, Twitter has settled on Atlanta as the new location for its latest data center. The center is operated by QTS (Quality Technology Services), and is a massive 990,000 square feet – among the largest data centers in the world.
