Arkansas data centers, in short
Arkansas has 13 data centers identified from primary sources, spread across 9 cities and counties and run by 7 operators. The largest concentration is Clarksville, with 4 data centers, followed by Little Rock with 2 and Bentonville with 1.
The operators with the most data centers in Arkansas are ServerFarm (4), Mainstream Technologies (2), Arkansas Research and Education Optical Network (2), OzarksGo (2), Google (1). Colocation and interconnection providers appear most often because they publish building-level detail; hyperscale campuses appear where the operator or the county names the individual buildings.
Not every operator discloses size. In Arkansas, 5 publish a floor area and 4 publish a power figure, and each figure is shown against the data center it belongs to rather than added into one number. They are not the same measurement: one operator states the floor area of a single building, another the full capacity of a campus it has only announced.
MISO runs the wholesale power market and the high-voltage grid for most of Arkansas. No statewide measure governing data centers is on record, alongside 6 local pauses. 3 named projects in Arkansas are delayed, blocked or under challenge, and the capital atlas records 1 site here carrying $4B in announced commitments.
