Conflicts and open questions

- The 2024 report places the edge node on Diamond Drive in Cummings Research Park; whether it is inside the 333 Diamond Drive building is not stated, so it is treated as part of this campus.
- Square footage figures vary: 46,000 sq ft data hall at full build (2018) vs. 9,000 sq ft expandable to 52,400 sq ft (company page, which also shows an unlabeled 38,000 sq ft figure).
- Coordinates approximate, Cummings Research Park.
