Digital Realty Trust, Inc. DLR

Company Overview

Digital Realty Trust, Inc. is a publicly traded real estate investment trust (REIT) specializing in the ownership, development, and operation of data centers that support global digital infrastructure. The company operates at the intersection of real estate, technology infrastructure, and cloud and network ecosystems, providing facilities that enable enterprise IT, cloud computing, artificial intelligence workloads, and global connectivity. Its primary revenue drivers are long-term leases and colocation services for data center space, power, and interconnection capabilities.

Founded in 2004, Digital Realty has evolved from a U.S.-focused wholesale data center owner into one of the world’s largest global data center platforms through organic development and strategic acquisitions, most notably the acquisition of Interxion Holding N.V. in 2020. The company is positioned as a neutral provider serving hyperscale cloud providers, large enterprises, network operators, and digital service firms, with a strategy centered on scale, global reach, and interconnected campus-style facilities.
