They are usually created and maintained by large organizations in order to have access to the information necessary for their operations or as sales or rental space. For example, a bank may have a data processing center with the purpose of storing all the data of its clients and the operations they carry out on their accounts. Virtually all medium or large companies have some type of CPD, while the largest companies have several.
It is also known as computer center in Latin America, and in Spain as calculation center, computing center, data processing center or computer center.
