Facebook to Build Third Foreign Data Center in Denmark

Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) will build a new data center in the Danish city of Odense, the California-based tech company said at a press conference with local authorities, only the third such facility outside of the United States. “The Odense data center will be one of the most advanced, energy-efficient data centers in the world,” Facebook’s director of data center operations, Niall McEntegart said on Thursday.
As quoted in the press release:

Facebook already has a data center in Lulea, Sweden and another in Clonee in Ireland.
The new facility will be built on the outskirts of Denmark’s third largest city, best known as the birthplace of fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen.
