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 Switch Communications' data centers stand

Water stress index · median of 5 data centers (few: one site can move it)
37/100 · below average
Social friction index · median of 5 data centers (few: one site can move it)
27/100 · below average

Both indices describe the places where the sites stand, not how Switch Communications 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.
