CEO Laurens van Reijen called the launch a step toward a "Belgian and European digital backbone," balancing ambition with necessity.The company is positioning the site as more than another server farm. It is, in effect, a statement about where data should live - and who should control it. That argument has gained [...]
Aligned Secures $2.58B To Scale AI Data Center Growth - 📅 - Aligned Data Centers has secured a $2.58 billion credit facility to accelerate U.S. expansion, underscoring surging demand for AI-driven infrastructure. The Dallas-based provider is tapping institutional capital markets to fund late-stage data center developments, reflecting a broader industry shift toward flexible financing as hyperscale and enterprise workloads strain capacity across key U.S. regions.
Aligned's new revolving credit facility, backed by insurers, pension funds and other institutional investors, is structured around six existing U.S. assets. The three-year agreement - extendable by two additional one-year terms - targets later-stage developments, a segment increasingly [...]

Rigetti Plans $100M UK Investment For Quantum Expansion - 📅 - Rigetti Computing plans to invest up to $100 million in the UK to expand its quantum computing footprint, marking its first major deployment outside the US. Announced in March 2026, the move includes building a system exceeding 1,000 qubits within four years, aligning with the UK government's £2 billion push to position itself as a global quantum leader.
The investment signals a growing convergence between public funding and private ambition in the quantum sector. Governments want leadership. Companies want scale. Both are betting that early infrastructure commitments will translate into long-term advantage.
Rigetti, listed on Nasdaq, is positioning itself as a full-stack player - [...]

Scalvy Secures $13.9M to Solve Power Bottleneck for AI Data Centers - 📅 - Scalvy, an Austin-based power infrastructure startup, has raised $13.9 million in an oversubscribed Series A round to address a growing bottleneck in AI and electrification systems. Announced in March 2026, the funding will support deployment of its distributed power platform across data centers, energy storage, and mobility markets increasingly constrained by scale, efficiency, and reliability demands.
The round was led by Silicon Badia alongside a strategic investor, with participation from Azolla Ventures, Climate Capital, Skyriver Ventures, and others. It brings Scalvy's total funding to roughly $17 million, as the company moves toward certification and early deployments while scaling [...]

Study: Fragmented Cloud Strategies Raise Costs and Risk - 📅 - Info-Tech Research Group is warning enterprises that fragmented cloud strategies are quietly inflating costs and exposing governance gaps, as organizations expand cloud environments without consistent decision frameworks. In research released in March 2026, the firm says disconnected approaches to workload placement, access control, and cost management are undermining performance and limiting business value across increasingly complex, multi-cloud environments worldwide.
Many organizations are no longer struggling to adopt cloud - they are struggling to control it. What began as a push for agility has evolved into a patchwork of platforms, policies, and workloads, often stitched together [...]

The project, known as MIL1, will deliver 27MW of IT capacity across three data halls within a 7,000-square-meter facility. It is the first of two planned sites in Milan, positioning CyrusOne to capture demand from hyperscalers and enterprises increasingly looking south of Frankfurt, Amsterdam, and [...]
EPIC Microsystems Raises $21M For AI Data Center Power - 📅 - EPIC Microsystems has raised $21 million in an oversubscribed Series A round to tackle one of AI infrastructure's less glamorous - but increasingly critical - constraints: power delivery. The funding, announced this week, comes as data center operators grapple with soaring energy demands driven by high-density AI workloads and next-generation accelerators.
The round was led by Seligman Ventures, with participation from Intel Capital and several other investors. It brings EPIC Microsystems' total funding to $26 million and adds Seligman's Umesh Padval to the company's board.
At first glance, this is another semiconductor startup pitching incremental efficiency gains. But the timing [...]

The company claims internal benchmarks show significant gains: up to 95% faster server response times and nearly 60% faster initial page rendering for users in Southeast Asia compared with U.S.-served infrastructure. As ever with vendor benchmarks, the numbers warrant [...]
maincubes Breaks Ground On Berlin AI Data Center Campus - 📅 - maincubes has broken ground on key power infrastructure for its Berlin-area data center campus, confirming construction of a substation and 110 kV cable route in Nauen this week, as demand for AI-ready capacity accelerates across Europe. The project underpins its BER02 facility and signals a broader shift: securing energy supply is now central to data center strategy.
The roughly six-kilometer cable connection will link regional wind and solar generation directly to the campus. That detail is increasingly critical. Across Europe, power availability - not real estate - is emerging as the primary bottleneck for new data center developments, particularly as AI workloads drive exponential [...]

Oracle Pushes Agentic AI Deep into Enterprise Stack - 📅 - Oracle has unveiled a sweeping set of ‘agentic AI' capabilities embedded in its database and enterprise applications stack, aiming to move AI from experimentation into production. The updates, spanning its AI Database and Fusion Applications, target enterprises seeking secure, real-time automation tied directly to operational data rather than bolted-on copilots or standalone models.
At the center is Oracle's attempt to collapse a persistent enterprise AI problem: fragmented data. By integrating AI agents directly into its database and application layers, Oracle is positioning itself as a provider of end-to-end "decision systems" rather than infrastructure or tooling alone.
The pitch is [...]
