Liberty Caribbean: CORE N.V. Datacenter
About CORE N.V. Datacenter
CORE N.V. Datacenter is operated by CORE N.V. and is located in Willemstad, Curaçao. Publicly available contact information for the operator lists Schottegatweg Oost 191, Willemstad as the office address, while the current ANSI/TIA-942-C-2024 Rated-3 certification for the constructed facility identifies the certified data center site at Vesuviusstraat 18, Willemstad, Curaçao. CORE positions the facility as a local and regional platform for secure hosting, colocation, private cloud, and business continuity services.
From a geographic standpoint, Willemstad is Curaçao’s main commercial center and an important Caribbean business and connectivity location. The island supports regional digital infrastructure through its role in Caribbean subsea network development, while Curaçao’s economy has strong exposure to services, trade, shipping, and financial activity. CORE also emphasizes the island’s position outside the main hurricane belt, which is relevant for resilience-oriented infrastructure and disaster recovery planning.
