 Hey everybody, welcome to JSA TV and JSA Podcast, the newsroom for data center and telecom professionals. I'm Jamie Skado-Cutaya, here on the floor of ITW 2022, live streaming with my very good friend, Rosa White. She is of course the co-founder and CFO of DR Fortress. Rosa, welcome, welcome. Thank you. This is exciting to be back, live and in person. I know, I've seen you in Zoom, but to see you in face to face, it's so nice, it's so nice. And so much to celebrate, 15 years for DR Fortress, what an accomplishment, so exciting. Can you tell us about your Honolulu data center, the most connected, we should say, impacting Hawaii? Yeah, thanks. Yes, it's been 15 years. It seems like it was yesterday that we're just starting off. But yeah, the facility is now the most interconnected facility in the state of Hawaii. We have almost 30 carriers now, ISPs, telecom providers. We have most of the content players, whether they're just locally caching or whether they're bringing nodes. So our vision had been to make Hawaii an internet hub, and it's now there. It took us 15 years, but we're there. We're hoping to just keep the content growing, keeping the carriers growing to Hawaii, making a bigger difference. So I think we're well on our way, but there's a lot more work to do. And you know, probably, most definitely, as a product of the pandemic, if you will, you guys released a really wonderful virtual tour. Tell us a little bit about that and what you discovered with that. Yeah, it actually was something that happened because of COVID. A lot of our customers couldn't, you know, it's one, it's tough to get to Hawaii. And then with COVID, it was even tougher to come to the islands. And so, you know, business had to go on. So we did a very simple virtual video for a while and just sending out to our customers. And then we developed an entire virtual tour. So it's an interactive tool so customers can just click on a specific cage that they want to see or if they want to see where our generators or UPS rooms are or whatnot. And so what we're doing is we are hoping to just kind of build upon that as questions come in from the interactive tool, we'll add more data, more content to it. So it's great. It's been really well received by all our customers. And now our salespeople are actually using it for customers that aren't ready to fly to Hawaii to come see it. They'll just use that as a kind of a pre-sales tool. So it was great. Makes total sense. And of course, if you can't get to the fabulous Hawaii islands, like at least you have a virtual tour. So it makes total sense, makes total sense. But what is next for DR Fortress? Well, we have another expansion in the works. So we just finished our last expansion in April. And because of the pent-up demand that we had for that, it is almost all sold out. Yeah, I know. So we are currently in the design phase and as soon as we get like more definitive plans and the exact square footage, we'll do a formal press release and stuff. So look out for that. It'll be coming soon. So yeah, that will be, it will probably be twice as big as the last expansion we had. And then after that, we're looking at either another expansion in the same complex, but just on a different side of the complex or just a DR site completely. So that's kind of the up and coming for DRF. I love that. I love that. Expansion, expansion, expansion. And for the ITW attendees that we see on the floor here today, well, what's your one takeaway you want them to remember about DR Fortress? Well, that we are finally able to come and see all our customers at ITW. So it was tough. We, you know, last time we attended virtually and it was good to at least see a lot of the conferences and seminars and virtually, but just being in person, just connecting with people, just sitting down and having a coffee is just priceless, especially coming from Hawaii where we're able to see so many people at one time. It's just, we really appreciate that. So we appreciate all our customers. We appreciate seeing everybody that's been here and we hope that ITW will continue to grow back to its, you know, original form and attendance. Well, we just adore you. It is so great to see you finally live again for our viewers who want to learn more. And of course they do. Where can they go?
