State officials are working with Internet giant Yahoo to establish a data centre in Western New York. The centre would house computer systems and other equipment. State officials say it wouldn’t result in many jobs, but the symbolism of luring the big-name company could help with other economic development efforts.
Gov. David Paterson asked the New York Power Authority to come up with a low-cost power plan for Yahoo to lure them to the Buffalo area. The company has been expanding its number of data centres around the country.
