Due to the secure nature of Tier III and Tier IV data centers, the information given on locations of the various data centers may not be 100%
accurate as the locations of Tier III and Tier IV are generally considered proprietary information.
During the interview with John H. Seader of The Uptime Institute, Seader
estimated that there were between two hundred to three hundred Tier III data centers in the United States and less than two-dozen certified Tier IV
data centers.
