Tier III?

So, what is a "Tier III" data center? Does that mean that it can hold more servers? Why would I want to have my data hosted in a bigger data center?

More servers means more storage space. It gives you the opportunity to expand.

Tier III is composed of multiple active power and cooling distribution paths, but only one path active, has redundant components, and is concurrently maintainable, providing 99.982% availability
This site can explain the differences between tiers.
