Grouping rule: a subsidiary that trades under its own brand has its own page (its owner is shown above when sourced); brands that now trade under their parent's name are grouped with the parent (rule SUB-1).
Where Global Switch's data centers stand
- Water stress index · median of 9 data centers (few: one site can move it)
- 48/100 · average
- Social friction index · median of 9 data centers (few: one site can move it)
- 97/100 · high
Both indices describe the places where the sites stand, not how Global Switch operates them: a higher water score means scarcer water around the sites, a higher friction score more of the conditions that tend to come before local opposition. Methods: water stress index · social friction index.
