Twenty minutes from downtown

Colocation minutes from downtown Portland

Hillsboro is the data center hub of the Pacific Northwest and one of the top 10 data center regions in the country, and our Oregon data center sits right at its center, about 20 minutes west of downtown Portland. Reliable power, dense fiber and direct on-ramps to the major public clouds make it an ideal home for Portland businesses whose systems need to stay up.

Being this close means your team can be on site whenever a project calls for it: to rack new equipment, check in on a migration, or walk a customer through the data hall. On the days you would rather stay at your desk, our Remote Hands and Smart Hands technicians are on site around the clock to do the work for you.

We are a WBENC-certified, woman-owned business, and we have been building and running infrastructure since 1996. Today that covers retail colocation from a single cabinet to a private cage, single-tenant Dedicated IaaS, private and hybrid cloud, and the managed services that keep it all running, delivered by one team on one SOW and one invoice.

Why Opus

Why choose Opus Interactive

Engineers who pick up the phone

Call us and you reach a real engineer. White Glove Support is included at no extra charge, with 15-minute response times and 24×7 access to the people who run your environment. It is a big reason our customers rate us 9.4 on Net Promoter Score.

Audited every year

Our annual third-party audits cover SOC 1, SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA/HITECH and PCI DSS. If your business answers to healthcare, finance or payment card rules, the controls under your infrastructure are independently tested before your own auditor ever asks.

Renewable power, low overhead

The Hillsboro data center is LEED Gold and Platinum certified and runs on 100% renewable energy, with a power usage effectiveness of 1.15 to 1.3. Portland companies with climate commitments can move their servers into a facility that actively supports those goals.

Three regions, one team

Hillsboro is one of three Opus data centers, alongside Manassas, Virginia and Dallas, Texas, each on its own power grid. Keep production close to Portland, put a recovery copy on a separate grid, and have the same engineers manage both.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a colocation data center near Portland?

Yes. Our Tier III+ data center is in Hillsboro, the data center hub of the Pacific Northwest, about 20 minutes west of downtown Portland at 8135 NE Evergreen Parkway. Vacancy there is very low right now, and we have space available today, from a single cabinet to a private cage.

Can our team visit our equipment?

Can you handle hands-on work for us?

Yes. Our Remote Hands and Smart Hands technicians are on site around the clock, handling everything from reboots and cable checks to hardware swaps, installs and diagnostics, with hourly, transparent pricing.

Can colocation in Hillsboro connect to AWS or Azure?

Yes. The facility is carrier-neutral, with multiple diverse fiber entry points and direct on-ramps to AWS, Azure and Google Cloud. That makes it an ideal base for hybrid setups, where some systems run on hardware you control and others run in a public cloud.

Do you support HIPAA and PCI compliance?

Yes. Our annual third-party audits cover HIPAA/HITECH and PCI DSS, along with SOC 1, SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001, so regulated workloads start on an independently audited foundation.

How is colocation priced?

Pricing is tailored to the space, power density, connectivity and level of management you need, with no hidden fees. Request a quote and an engineer will scope it with you.
