Deploy locally and scale globally to maximize choice and control
Deploy workloads in over 60 data centers and now into six regions and 18 availability zones globally. Built to meet your needs for local access, low latency and certified security, IBM Cloud® offers the widest range of choices about where and how your data and workloads should run. The availability zone design provides an easier and more effective way to design and operate applications and databases, making them highly available, fault tolerant and scalable.

Standardized, best-practices-based facilities
Each IBM Cloud data center features one or more pods, supporting thousands of servers. Space, power, network, personnel and internal infrastructure are optimized across all locations.
Redundant, best-in-class infrastructure
Built with industry-leading hardware and equipment, and outfitted with multiple power feeds, fiber links, dedicated generators and battery backup. Redundant N+1 power and cooling resources are regularly inspected to provide stability.
Better power, bandwidth and performance
IBM Cloud servers see high bandwidth and low latency due to availability zone connectivity and data replication across availability zones in the regional network. Run on IBM Cloud bare metal server for a single tenancy’s high-performance benefit.
24x7 onsite security, with rigorous controls
All locations are secured, with server room access limited to certified employees. Controls are vetted by third-party auditors and detailed reports are provided for your security.
