Mar, 2026 : ABB, VoltaGrid Expand Data Center Power Partnership
📅 - ABB and VoltaGrid said this week they are extending their partnership with new orders for power stabilization systems to support AI-driven data center growth, following an agreement signed at CERAWeek 2026 in Houston, as operators scramble to secure reliable electricity amid tightening grid capacity and rising infrastructure demands globally.
The deal covers 35 additional synchronous condensers, along with prefabricated eHouse units, intended for deployment across VoltaGrid's power projects. Financial terms were not disclosed. Orders are expected to be booked in the second quarter, suggesting near-term execution rather than long-term positioning.
This is not a speculative move. It [...][... Check source for end of article ...]
📅 - Operant AI Targets Inference Layer with Security Partners - Operant AI said this week it is launching an ecosystem partnership program aimed at embedding real-time security directly into AI inference infrastructure, as enterprises scale agent-based systems and confront growing risks tied to autonomous workloads, data exposure, and lack of runtime controls across cloud and specialized AI hardware environments globally today.
The move reflects a shift in where AI security is being contested. Much of the industry has focused on model training, data governance, and API protection. Inference - where models actually run and interact with live systems - has received less attention, despite being where risk becomes operational.
Operant AI is betting that [...]
📅 - $580B AI Investment Surge Reshapes Data Center Markets - A new 2026 data center marketplace report by Colliers shows AI demand is rapidly reshaping global infrastructure, with record investment, rising costs, and tightening power supply forcing operators, investors, and hyperscalers to rethink how and where facilities are built, as competition for energy and execution capacity intensifies across North America, Europe, and emerging markets worldwide.
The headline numbers are large, but the underlying shift is more structural than cyclical. Global data center investment exceeded $580 billion in 2025, up sharply year over year, while hyperscalers issued more than $120 billion in debt to finance AI-driven expansion. That capital is not chasing [...]
📅 - Rocketlane Secures $60M To Expand AI Services Platform - Rocketlane said this week it has raised $60 million in Series C funding led by Insight Partners, as demand grows for tools that help enterprises turn AI investments into operational results, rather than pilots, with professional services teams increasingly tasked with making those systems actually work in production environments globally.
The round brings Rocketlane's total funding to $105 million and follows a year in which the company claims to have more than doubled revenue while expanding into enterprise accounts. New offices in London, New York and San Francisco signal a push beyond its earlier footprint, though scaling services software globally comes with familiar [...]
📅 - Digital Realty Delivers Colocation To Samsung In Seoul - Digital Realty is providing colocation infrastructure to Samsung Electronics at its ICN10 facility in Seoul, expanding support for enterprise IT operations as demand for stable, high-density infrastructure grows in South Korea, where hyperscale and enterprise workloads continue to push local capacity and performance requirements beyond traditional data center designs.
The deployment centers on ICN10, a carrier-neutral site in Sangam-dong that has been operational since 2022. With up to 12 megawatts of IT capacity, the facility is positioned to handle enterprise-scale workloads, including those tied to AI and high-performance computing.
This is a conventional colocation deal on the [...]
📅 - PDG Expands Data Center Capacity in India, Indonesia - Princeton Digital Group said this week it is expanding its data center footprint across Asia, adding 210 megawatts of data center capacity in India through a multi-site acquisition while breaking ground on a new hyperscale data center campus in Indonesia, as demand for AI-ready data center infrastructure accelerates across both markets.
The India data center acquisition spans Mumbai and Hyderabad, two of the country's most active data center hubs. With power secured and land approvals in place, the sites offer a faster path to bringing new data center capacity online than typical greenfield developments.
Princeton Digital Group's total operating and planned data center capacity in India [...]
📅 - Colt Expands US-Asia Data Routes with New Subsea Cable - Colt Technology Services said this week it will build new subsea and terrestrial network routes linking the US West Coast to Asia, including a transpacific cable to Japan, as AI-driven traffic and enterprise demand strain existing capacity on one of the world's busiest data corridors.
The move centers on a new backbone route via the Juno cable system, connecting Los Angeles and Tokyo. Colt is also extending terrestrial connectivity on both sides, aiming to offer alternative paths for customers that rely on stable, high-capacity links.
This is about pressure. Transpacific routes are filling up fast, and not just during peak hours.
