Cosentry invests in Milwaukee data center

Cosentry Inc., an Omaha, Neb.-based information technology solutions provider, is investing $5 million in its Milwaukee data center.

The company is remodeling and updating the former Red Anvil data center at 3701 W. Burnham St. Cosentry acquired Red Anvil last October.

The remodeling of the 7,000-square-foot data center will be completed later this year.
