Project overview

Microsoft is planning to build a new datacenter in Tyrone.

In line with Microsoft’s Datacenter Community Pledge, our work follows the Community-First Infrastructure approach, reflecting a long term commitment to responsibility, transparency, and partnership with the communities where our datacenters operate.

Why datacenters are needed

Datacenters provide the physical infrastructure for the technology we depend on at work and in our personal lives. Whenever you open an app on your phone, join a virtual classroom or meeting, snap and save photos, or play a game with your friends online, you are using a datacenter. Local businesses, government, hospitals, and schools rely on datacenters every day to deliver goods and services to you.

Investing in cloud and AI infrastructure in Georgia supports long-term digital growth and helps ensure that essential online services remain reliable and accessible.
