About
Compass Datacenters is a private technology infrastructure company that develops and operates data centers for cloud computing, enterprise technology and hyperscale customers. Founded in 2011 by Chris Crosby, the company was established to introduce a more efficient approach to data center development through standardized designs, modular construction and scalable facilities. Its first data center was completed in 2012, marking the beginning of an expansion that has taken its operations across North America, Europe and the Middle East. Compass provides customized facilities designed to meet the growing demand for reliable digital infrastructure while improving construction efficiency and operational performance. Community engagement and environmental responsibility are important elements of the company's development approach. Compass works with local organizations, educational institutions and community partners to support workforce development, economic opportunities, public safety and environmental sustainability. Its initiatives include technical training partnerships that prepare individuals for careers in the data center industry. The company also prioritizes resource conservation through air-cooling technology and closed-loop water systems, reporting that its facilities have used no municipal water for cooling since its founding. These practices reflect its approach to balancing digital infrastructure expansion with the needs of surrounding communities.
