With a pricetag of $360 million, International Business Machines (IBM) is building its ninth environmentally friendly cloud computing center in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.  According to Bob Greenberg, general manager of IT optimization:

This new data center is part of IBM’s commitment to construct the world’s most advanced data centers. When we open for business in late 2009, the new IBM data center assures that Research Triangle Park will be a strategic location for our outsourcing business for many years to come. I’d like to thank the State of North Carolina, Durham County, the Durham Chamber of Commerce, and Duke Energy for their outstanding support that helped make this project possible.  Source: http://www.tradingmarkets.com/.site/news/Stock%20News/1802216/

Green data centers are beneficial for all.  It helps IBM reach it’s billion dollar environmental initiatives and benefits the environment.
