Tech Vault South Burlington data center
A privately owned colocation and managed-services data center in South Burlington. The State of Vermont keeps core IT infrastructure here. In 2013 the state signed a five-year colocation deal that included a custom suite, and a 2023 state solicitation named 21 Gregory Drive as the install site for its new IaaS platform. A 2013 release gave the facility's size as 35,000 sq ft. An earlier 2011 profile described a 6,000 sq ft data hall designed for about 102 racks. Also known as: Tech Vault.

Conflicts and open questions
- The 35,000 sq ft figure probably covers the whole building, not the data hall alone. The 2011 profile described a 6,000 sq ft data center.
- Tech Vault's own website (techvault.net) could not be opened during research. The address comes from the state solicitation text.
- The solicitation date of 2023-02-17 comes from the ConstructConnect listing of the same RFP. The BidNet page shows no date.
- Coordinates are the Census geocode of 21 Gregory Dr, South Burlington. No record newer than the 2023 solicitation was found confirming current operation.
