    <jats:abstract>
     <jats:p>For businesses that depend on reliable and secure IT systems, choosing the best location for a data center is of paramount importance. Data center accessibility, operational efficiency, cost, and security are all affected by their physical location. The procedure entails considering a wide range of elements to guarantee that the final site meets the needs of the business. This paper investigated the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) model to select the best data center location based on a set of criteria. The MCDM method is integrated with the single-valued neutrosophic set (SVNS) to deal with vague and inaccurate information. A neutrosophic set with truth, indeterminacy, and falsity membership functions all in the range [0, 1] is called a SVNS. This paper used SVNS with three MCDM methods such as entropy, TOPSIS, and MABAC techniques. The entropy technique is used to compute the weights of criteria, then the TOPSIS and MABAC methods are used to rank the locations. The case study is investigated in Egypt. This paper used ten criteria and eight alternatives.</jats:p>
