Cloud Datacenter Locations

This dataset tracks the locations of datacenters operated by large cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP) with each cloud provider having their own json file. It based on my research collected from publicly available information.

Accuracy of locations

The granularity of each entry's location is recorded explicitly (see geoPrecision below). Cloud providers will provide region or zone as options while procuring their services, these refer to a geographic area where they operate 1 or more actual physical datacenters.

Coordinates

Coordinates are primarily determined by geocoding the location string via OpenStreetMap Nominatim, which gives the center of the country, state, city, or district. When the actual datacenters can be found on a map, their coordinates are used and geoPrecision is set to datacenter. Coordinates are stored in the array geoLatLong as one or more [latitude, longitude] pairs, with each coordinate rounded to 3 decimals.

Note, there may be various datacenters spread geographically which all operate under the same provider code. The listed locations are publicly attributed to the provider. When only one datacenter is found, we assume it is solely responsible for that region or zone.
