LightEdge Solutions Acquires Cabela’s Omaha Data Center
LightEdge Solutions (www.lightedge.com), an enterprise-grade cloud, colocation and managed services provider, has announced it is buying Cabela’s existing, state-of-the-art Omaha data center and retrofitting it to support LightEdge cloud and colocation services. The 16,925-square-foot facility was originally constructed in 2010, and sits on 4.18 acres of land. It will be retrofitted to complement LightEdge’s other data center facilities across the Midwest. As part of the transaction, Cabela’s has signed a tenant lease with LightEdge and will continue to operate from the data center.
Omaha is an ideal location for the LightEdge data center thanks to the proximity to its other facilities, as well as the Omaha airport, making transportation more convenient for business leaders to tour and move into the space. Other benefits of selecting Omaha include the available energy sources, minimal environmental and weather concerns, and tax benefits for tenants.
The Omaha data center is scheduled to open in Q4 2017, and will be immediately available for tours. LightEdge also recently opened a second facility in Altoona, Iowa, to add to its growing data center campus outside the greater Des Moines area. LightEdge’s fourth facility resides in the underground limestone mines of SubTropolis Technology Center in Kansas City, Missouri.
