US Cellular is putting US$4.1 million into an expansion of the data centre at its facility near the Lovell Road-Cornerstone Drive intersection, and next year the wireless giant plans to spend another US$10 million to US$12 million on an addition for the building. Both moves are aimed at beefing up the infrastructure that makes those nifty smart-phone applications possible and that supports other back-end operations.

For now, that means displacing office space to add around 2,000 sq ft to the existing 8,000 sq ft data centre, complete with raised floors, servers and other gear. Next year, the bigger project will launch - building a 10,000 sq ft addition at the property, to provide a new home for office dwellers displaced by more data expansion.
