Vancouver stands as a critical hub in the Canadian and Pacific Northwest data centre ecosystem, offering both strategic geographic advantages and technological robustness for global enterprises. Renowned for its proximity to key Asia-Pacific markets, Vancouver forms a vital part of the international data transit routes, making it a preferred location for organizations focused on low-latency connectivity and resilient infrastructure. As a gateway between North America and Asia, the city attracts multinational cloud providers and financial institutions, driven by its well-regulated market stability, green energy resources, and progressive technology sector. Vancouver's well-developed ecosystem supports a diverse client base, from hyperscale data centre operators to innovative startups, all seeking reliable remote hands and managed services within a secure, compliant environment.
As of 2024, Vancouver is home to over 25 active data centres with a growing number of colocation and hyperscale facilities emerging in the Metro Vancouver area. The city boasts robust fibre connectivity, serving as a key landing point for multiple trans-Pacific and cross-continental cables, which ensures exceptional network diversity and redundancy. Vancouver’s data centre tenants represent dynamic sectors, including content delivery networks (CDNs), cloud platforms, financial technology (fintech) enterprises, media and entertainment companies, e-commerce providers, and health technology firms. The region’s ongoing investments in digital infrastructure and green energy make it particularly appealing for sustainability-focused businesses and organizations with global connectivity needs.
Global companies seeking a presence in Vancouver's data centre market face several unique challenges.
