Amazon.com said it plans to invest at least $20 billion in Pennsylvania to expand its data center infrastructure to support artificial intelligence and cloud computing technologies.
The company said Salem Township and Falls Township are the first communities identified as sites for these future innovation campuses.
Multiple additional Pennsylvania communities are under consideration, Amazon said.
This investment is expected to create at least 1,250 new, high-skilled jobs while supporting thousands of other jobs in the Amazon Web Services data center supply chain.
The new jobs will include data center engineers, network specialists and engineering operations managers.
Amazon said it already has 23 fulfillment and sortation centers, and 20 last-mile delivery stations, in Pennsylvania.
Last week, the company said it plans to invest an estimated $10 billion in North Carolina for similar purposes.
