📅 Jul 15, 2026 - QTS and Lancium Plan $10 Billion Texas Data Center Campus - QTS Data Centers and Lancium plan a data center campus near Turkey, Texas, carrying an expected investment above $10 billion and potentially thousands of construction jobs. QTS would build and operate the facilities on Lancium's Clean Campus, while Lancium supplies infrastructure, power systems, storage and solar. The scale raises questions around execution, grid capacity and local impact.

For Hall County, the proposal is unusually large relative to the surrounding economy. The companies estimate as many as 7,000 construction jobs at peak activity and roughly 350 permanent positions spanning QTS staff, maintenance, security and tenant operations. Those figures could alter local labor [...]

📅 Jul 7, 2026 - QTS Drops Virginia Data Center Plan Despite Billions at Stake - QTS has abandoned its proposed Digital Gateway data center development in Virginia, ending years of legal battles and community opposition despite securing local approval, in a setback that highlights how land use, permitting and public resistance are becoming as critical to AI infrastructure as power, fiber and available capital for future expansion projects.

For years, the Digital Gateway proposal symbolized Virginia's complicated relationship with the industry that helped make the state the world's largest concentration of data centers. Now it represents something else. Even large operators with substantial financial backing are discovering that local acceptance has become another [...]

📅 Jul 1, 2026 - DE CIX Opens Stockholm AI Exchange For Nordic Cloud Traffic - DE CIX will launch an Internet and Cloud Exchange in Stockholm in September 2026, extending its Nordic footprint into Sweden and positioning the site for AI, cloud and real-time traffic from day one. The exchange, open for orders now, gives enterprises, carriers and cloud providers another local interconnection option in the region's largest colocation market, and beyond.

The new Stockholm exchange adds Sweden to DE CIX's Nordic buildout after launches in Denmark, Norway and Finland. The company began that regional expansion in 2023 with exchanges in Esbjerg, Copenhagen, Kristiansand, Oslo and Helsinki. Stockholm now becomes the missing obvious node. Not small. Not peripheral.

📅 Jun 5, 2026 - DE-CIX Boosts Mexico-Dallas Capacity Ahead of World Cup - DE-CIX has upgraded connectivity between Mexico and Dallas as networks prepare for heavy FIFA World Cup streaming traffic, after its Mexico exchange posted more than 400% traffic growth since early 2026 and peak usage near 300 Gbit/s, highlighting how live sports, gaming, enterprise workloads and cloud demand are reshaping cross-border internet infrastructure in North America now, quickly.

The upgrade is live. It connects DE-CIX's Mexico footprint more tightly with Dallas, one of the more important interconnection markets in the United States. The stated trigger was demand from Mexico-based networks looking for simpler routes into international data paths.

There is a World Cup angle, [...]

📅 May 14, 2026 - DE-CIX Joins Mplify Alliance to Advance AI Network Services - DE-CIX has joined the Mplify Alliance, becoming one of the earlier internet exchange operators to align with an industry effort around Network as a Service standards and automation. The move matters less as a membership announcement than as another sign that connectivity providers increasingly see software orchestration, APIs, and AI-era traffic patterns becoming core infrastructure products rather than supporting layers around them today.

Internet exchanges historically sat in a fairly defined place in the networking stack. Networks met there. Traffic crossed. Peering agreements happened. Capacity expanded. The mechanics mattered, but much of it stayed invisible outside carrier and [...]
