Meta is building a nuclear supply chain for the AI era, combining long-term offtake, advanced reactors, and new financing models to secure firm power as grid politics and capacity limits tighten.

We sit down with Page Haun, Chief Marketing and ESG Strategy Officer at Cologix, to unpack what sustainable data center design really means in the age of AI. From LEED Gold facilities and liquid cooling to fuel cells, renewable energy, and community partnerships, Haun explains how Cologix is building...

Mike Connaughton of Leviton Network Solutions explains how strong partnerships can help data center operators overcome common challenges and enrich project development.

Each month Data Center Frontier, in partnership with Pkaza, posts some of the hottest data center career opportunities in the market. Here’s a look at some of the latest data center jobs posted on the Data Center Frontier jobs board, powered by Pkaza Critical Facilities Recruiting.

As 2026 begins, the AI data center boom looks intact, but its assumptions are under a degree of quiet stress.

Virginia’s new large-load rate class and Georgia’s explicit risk-transfer rules show how hyperscale growth is being reshaped toward more structured, financially responsible development, and toward clarity about who pays when the forecast breaks.

From a converted factory in Memphis to a planned $20B, 2-gigawatt campus in Mississippi, Elon Musk’s xAI is building “AI factories” at unprecedented speed. This deep-dive follows Colossus, MACROHARDRR, and the race between compute, power, water, and politics in the new era of data centers.

Six new chips, one system. NVIDIA’s Vera Rubin launch extends beyond a single product into a full AI infrastructure platform where compute, networking, memory, and operations are co-designed to deliver low-cost, always-on inference at scale.

Attendees will gain actionable insights into designing and deploying fuel cell-powered data centers, including strategies for load-following with Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), achieving high nines availability with modular, redundant power architecture, and optimizing site layouts for phased...

As artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) design criteria continue to evolve, today’s data center operators face a new challenge: engineering facilities capable of handling extreme density, variable workloads, and rapid hardware refresh cycles. Faced with rapid innovation...

Join CargoSense, Data Center Frontier, DPR Construction, Schneider Electric and a data center operator to be named for a deep dive into how real-time logistics intelligence—across location, condition, chain-of-custody, and environmental risk—helps every stakeholder deliver faster, more predictably, and with fewer disputes.

In this episode of the Data Center Frontier Show, Matt Vincent, Editor-in-Chief of Data Center Frontier is joined by Liam Weld, Head of Data Centers for Meter to discuss why connectivity for data centers is often forgotten about. Everyone focuses on power and cooling to the building, and just assumes the building's Wi-Fi will be bad, cell reception will be worse, and that operators should simply work...

SoftBank’s $4 billion acquisition of DigitalBridge marks a decisive shift from financing AI to owning the infrastructure that powers it. By adding a $108 billion digital infrastructure platform—spanning data centers, fiber, towers, and edge assets—SoftBank strengthens its position in AI megaprojects...

Starcloud’s successful deployment of an orbital AI data center marks a pivotal test for space-based data center infrastructure, exploring how off-planet compute could address the power, cooling, land, and sustainability constraints facing AI data centers on Earth, while leaving key questions around ...

As the data center industry heads into 2026, AI is no longer just driving demand. It is reshaping power, cooling, site selection, and public scrutiny. This in-depth forecast examines how AI factories are diverging from general-purpose data centers, why utilities are becoming co-architects, and how capital...
