Google CEO Sundar Pichai was in North Texas on Friday to announce the tech giant’s largest investment in a single state. The multiyear plan will add three Texas data center campuses, increase energy supply to the state’s grid, and train 1,700 electricians as the AI economy scales.
The new Google Cloud region in Dallas is part of Google's $9.5 billion investment in data centers and Google offices across the U.S. in 2022, which it says will create 12,000 jobs. $600 million data centers in Midlothian and Red Oak are also part of the project.
A Google exec says the new Dallas region will offer Google Cloud customers "the speed and availability you need to innovate faster and build high-performing applications that cater to the needs of nearby end user."
