With the growing trend of modular, prefabricated data centers allows organizations to expand or shrink its capacity as needed. These data center computers are configured and likely to have the cooling and power needs.

Mobile data centers also simplify operations to improve efficiency. Agencies or organizations are able to save money by avoiding the construction and engineering costs of building a physical data center.

The units are self-contained and software-defined and don't rely on a large industrial infrastructure (that could be vulnerable to physical or cyber-based attacks, or mechanical breakdowns).
