Growth in Portland Direct access to three trans-Pacific subsea cables, supplying connectivity between Asia and the western coast of the United States, along with some of the lowest tax rates in the U.S., make Flexential's Portland facilities an attractive option for busiesses looking to balance cost, infrastructure and best deliver their services. Growth in Nashville "Recent IDC research1 estimates that the world's data storage needs will exceed 175 zettabytes by the year 2025, and although public cloud services are expected to expand accordingly, the need for data center services is expected to rise at an equivalent rate," said Brad Casemore, IDC analyst.
