Listening to Communities

Understanding public perception of data centers and how this shapes community initiatives

Data centers provide the digital infrastructure that underpins almost every aspect of our daily lives, enabling a vast range of economic, scientific and social activities. CyrusOne commissioned an independent survey to explore how the public perceives data centers in Europe, the roles they play in society, and how they are perceived in terms of sustainability and energy use. 

The report covers seven data center markets, including the UK, Ireland, Germany, France, Spain, the Netherlands, and Italy, and is available in six languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Dutch and Italian.
