LightEdge at SubTropolis lands new tenant, KU Hospital

The University of Kansas Hospital has officially moved into its new private suite at the LightEdge data center facility at Hunt Midwest’s SubTropolis Technology Center.

The new location allows the healthcare provider to commit to the most stringent patient information protection.

LightEdge easily met the hospital’s demand for a partner with the financial backing to ensure long term stability and the option for capacity expansion. The hospital began moving into LightEdge’s Phase I 60,000 square foot underground facility during the first half of 2015 and is now fully operational in the facility.

“The stability and flexibility that we have achieved by moving to LightEdge has freed capital and resources allowing us to stay ahead of technology changes, patient needs and our competition,” said Sean Roberts, systems director for The University of Kansas Hospital.
