📅 Sep 9, 2026 - Digital Realty Adds ERA-IX to Vienna Connectivity Ecosystem - ERA-IX is expanding into Vienna through Digital Realty's campus, adding another carrier-neutral internet exchange to a market already dense with network providers, cloud connections, and enterprise traffic. The move gives operators more local peering and interconnection options, while testing whether Vienna can support another exchange without fragmenting traffic or weakening the economics that make peering useful.

For network operators, the immediate change is choice. A new exchange can create additional paths for keeping traffic local, reducing reliance on paid transit, and shortening routes between networks that already have meaningful traffic volumes in Vienna. That can improve [...]

The new NBO2 facility adds capacity, interconnection density and satellite connectivity in a market where cloud demand, data sovereignty requirements and regional digital services are reshaping infrastructure decisions quickly.

NBO2 sits alongside Nairobi One, turning the site into a larger campus rather than another isolated facility. For infrastructure buyers, the more relevant number may not be 6.4 MW. Digital Realty says customers at the Nairobi campus can reach more than 100 networks, two internet exchange points and a [...]

📅 Aug 26, 2026 - Digital Realty Gets 50MW Slot in Constrained Singapore Market - Digital Realty has secured a provisional 50 megawatt allocation for a fourth Singapore data center, giving the infrastructure landlord scarce expansion capacity in one of Asia's most constrained digital markets. The Jurong Island project comes with unusually explicit energy and efficiency conditions, turning access to power into both a commercial advantage and an execution risk for operators.

The award is one quarter of 200 MW granted by Singapore to four incumbent operators after a competitive process that drew more than 20 proposals. Equinix, Keppel Data Centres and ST Telemedia Global Data Centres received the other 50 MW allocations. For buyers, the immediate takeaway is not simply [...]

📅 Aug 18, 2026 - CBRE Reports Record AI Colocation Signings Across Europe - European data center operators signed 420 MW of AI-focused colocation capacity in the first half of 2026, up from 89 MW a year earlier, according to CBRE. Most of that demand is moving beyond the traditional FLAPD hubs, with neoclouds favoring Nordic markets where renewable power is cheaper, more abundant, and easier to secure at scale commercially.

The fourfold increase is significant not simply because AI companies want more racks. It suggests data center operators and their financiers are becoming more comfortable committing large blocks of capacity to a class of customer that, only two years ago, many landlords treated cautiously. CBRE says providers are using mechanisms including [...]

📅 Jul 5, 2026 - Wesco Acquires Newark as Data Center Cooling Becomes Critical - Wesco has closed its acquisition of Newark Engineering Group, based in Singapore, adding data center cooling design, installation and lifecycle services as thermal management becomes a harder constraint on AI infrastructure growth. The deal gives Wesco deeper exposure to Southeast Asia's data center buildout and technical role beyond distribution, logistics and supply chain support across the region.

For enterprise buyers, this is not just another bolt on services transaction. Cooling has moved from facilities plumbing to capacity planning. More racks, hotter chips, less patience from customers who want AI capacity yesterday. Operators can buy servers and networking gear, but if heat [...]
