Stream Data Centers: DFW V

DFW V is a data center project formerly developed and operated by Stream Data Centers, located at 1811 E. Renner Road, Richardson, Texas, in the competitive Dallas–Fort Worth data center market. Completed around 2012, the facility now operates under Stream’s Stream Private Data Center service, meaning the building is no longer owned by Stream but continues to be managed by them for a local financial services client, indicative of its adaptability and operational flexibility.
