The future of the grid increasingly hinges on where and how data centers get built. To forecast the kind of power infrastructure we need to meet AI's growing appetite, we first need to understand a laundry list of variables: data center size, workload type, latency, reliability — even the variety of a data center's coolant system. So what's the state of play in data center development today — and how are the trends shaping grid needs? In this episode, Shayle talks to Chris Sharp, chief technology officer of Digital Realty, a developer, owner and operator of data centers. They cover topics like: How AI inference workloads are clustering in existing regions, driven by latency and throughput requirements “Data gravity” and “data oceans”: how large concentrations of data attract more compute infrastructure What's driving longer lead times: interconnection delays, equipment bottlenecks, or both? Large-scale builds vs. incremental additions and densification of existing infrastructure “Braggawatts” vs. real demand: separating hype from reality The diverging power needs of training vs. inference, and whether any workloads work with intermittent power The evolving role of “bridge power” and why diesel and gas are still in the mix Resources: Latitude Media: Google's new data center model signals a massive market shift Latitude Media: The future of energy-first data centers takes shape Latitude Media: Can a new coalition turn data centers into grid assets?

La ville de Marseille est un laboratoire pour l'acceptabilité des datacenters, entre les ambitions numériques de la seconde ville de France, le besoin de services de proximité, le hub mondial de câbles sous-marins, et la présence controversée de Digital Realty qui focalise les oppositions politiques, le datacenter Phocea DC a su se faire accepter et forge sa place au sein de l'écosystème numérique de la ville. Damien Desanti, le fondateur de Phocea DC, évoque son expérience dans l'accessibilité des datacenters pour l'édition 2025 de la Journée du datacenter.Hébergé par Ausha.

Marseille, deuxième plus grande ville de France... et plus étonnement, sixième hub internet mondial, soit l'un des principaux carrefours du trafic internet. La cité phocéenne vient même de dépasser Hong Kong. Conséquence : les centres de stockage de données numériques (data centers, ou centres de données) se multiplient. L'entreprise américaine Digital Reality a pour projet de s'étendre encore en plein cœur de la ville en y construisant son cinquième centre de données. Mais elle fait face à l'inquiétude des riverains qui craignent des répercussions pour leur environnement. Ils sont une trentaine à se réunir devant le futur cinquième data center marseillais. Jean-Pierre Lapebie, président de l'association de riverains Cap au nord, confie : « Ces data centers, en eux-mêmes, consomment énormément d'énergie électrique. Donc ça pose un problème. D'autant plus que ces quartiers manquent d'espaces verts. Il y a une population qui est en souffrance avec une précarité énorme. Et cette population, on la met en dehors de toute discussion ou initiative sur leurs projets collectifs de vie. »Installé depuis dix ans à Marseille, Digital Realty, l'entreprise à l'initiative des data centers marseillais, a accepté de nous recevoir pour découvrir ces centres de l'intérieur et comprendre leur impact environnemental. « Voilà un exemple de salle. Vous voyez un certain nombre d'équipements », commente Fabrice Coquio, PDG de Digital Reality, en déambulant dans une salle au milieu de tours électroniques connectées où transitent des datas.« Nous colocalisons les investissements informatiques de nos clients pour pouvoir faire en sorte que, demain ou ce soir, vous passez une commande en ligne, vous consultez votre compte bancaire, vous renouvelez votre permis en ligne ou tout simplement, vous envoyez un email à votre grand-mère. » Ces centres de data stockent donc les données d'entreprises. Autre fonction : les mettre en relation. Et ça se passe dans une salle bien moins bruyante. « Et là, vous voyez, sur ces tiroirs à haute densité, on va connecter 24 fois monsieur A avec monsieur B, monsieur C avec monsieur D et ainsi de suite », poursuit le PDG en montrant les outils informatiques.« C'est légitime d'avoir des interrogations »Des infrastructures qui prennent de la place et nécessitent aussi d'être refroidies. Sur le toit du bâtiment, d'énormes tuyaux et de grosses cuves font le travail : « On est sur la terrasse technique du data center. Vous avez tous ces systèmes de groupes froids. C'est un peu comme le moteur que vous avez derrière votre réfrigérateur à la maison. Sauf qu'ils sont un peu plus gros. »Aux inquiétudes des habitants, Fabrique Coquio répond : « C'est légitime d'avoir des interrogations, parce qu'à partir du moment où vous avez des machines informatiques, ça consomme de l'énergie. » Mais il insiste, le projet de nouveau centre de stockage est conforme, notamment au code de l'environnement : « Il faut savoir qu'en France, on ne peut pas faire n'importe quoi, heureusement. De toute façon, vous ne pouvez pas construire un data center si vous n'avez pas d'autorisation. Et après, vous avez des audits, pour vérifier la conformité de votre service. Ce qui est complètement normal. »Pour l'instant, rien n'entrave la tenue du projet. Ce cinquième site devrait voir le jour d'ici à 2026.À lire aussiMarseille, le port des data centers

Aujourd'hui, Rémi Andreassian, porte-parole et directeur marketing de Digital Realty, était l'invité dans les Grandes gueules. Il est revenu sur cette question : Intelligence artificielle, futur fleuron français ?
Pháp không muốn bị thụt lùi so với Mỹ và Trung Quốc trong cuộc đua Trí tuệ Nhân tạo - AI. Tuần lễ và Thượng đỉnh Hành động về AI - đồng tổ chức với Ấn Độ - ở Paris là cơ hội để Pháp bảo vệ chủ quyền kỹ thuật số, đặc biệt với những thông báo quan trọng của tổng thống Emmanuel Macron : 109 tỉ euro đầu tư vào AI tại Pháp, quảng bá "sản phẩm Pháp" - chatbot Le Chat của Mistral AI, hiện trở thành đối tác của nhiều tập đoàn lớn. Trong ba ngày sau khi được tổng thống Pháp quảng bá trong buổi trả lời phỏng vấn với đài France 2 (ngày 09/02), Le Chat trở thành ứng dụng được tải nhiều nhất trên Apple Store. Ứng dụng Pháp, cạnh tranh với ChatGPT của Mỹ và DeepSeek của Trung Quốc, đã tóm tắt buổi phỏng vấn của tổng thống Macron theo yêu cầu của RFI Tiếng Việt :« Trả lời phỏng vấn đài France 2, tổng thống Emmanuel Macron thông báo khoản đầu tư lớn 109 tỉ euro trong lĩnh vực AI tại Pháp. Quỹ này được hình thành từ nhiều nguồn đóng góp khác nhau, trong đó có Ả Rập Xê Út, Canada, nhiều doanh nghiệp Pháp và nước ngoài.Tổng thống Macron cũng nhấn mạnh tầm quan trọng của việc quản lý AI toàn cầu, nói rằng mọi nội dung do phần mềm AI tạo ra phải được xác định rõ ràng. Ông kêu gọi một chiến lược AI đầy tham vọng, ở cả cấp độ Pháp và châu Âu, với các mục tiêu xã hội, kinh tế và ngoại giao.Tổng thống cũng nhấn mạnh đến chatbot “Le Chat”, do công ty khởi nghiệp Mistral AI của Pháp phát triển, đồng thời kêu gọi người dân Pháp tải xuống. Ứng dụng này được giới thiệu là đối thủ cạnh tranh của ChatGPT.Cuối cùng, ông Macron bày tỏ sự lạc quan về tác động của AI đối với việc làm, tin rằng sự phát triển của công nghệ sẽ giải phóng thời gian bằng cách phân công các nhiệm vụ lặp đi lặp lại, giúp "đưa yếu tố con người trở lại" trong các mối quan hệ ».Điểm đặc biệt là Le Chat dẫn ngay các nguồn được sử dụng ngay dưới câu trả lời để người sử dụng dễ kiểm chứng. Và ứng dụng Le Chat khẳng định trả lời được bằng tiếng Việt và sử dụng các nguồn tiếng Việt.Pháp “chán” phải chạy theo Mỹ và Trung QuốcKhoản đầu tư 109 tỉ euro trong vòng 5 năm tới được tổng thống Macron thông báo nhằm mục đích giúp Pháp duy trì « cuộc đua về Trí tuệ Nhân tạo », « sáng tạo những giải pháp, những công nghệ riêng, nếu không, sẽ bị phụ thuộc vào những nước khác » :« Chúng ta (Pháp và châu Âu) có những lợi thế tuyệt vời. Phải nói là tất cả các nước đều bị trễ so với Hoa Kỳ và Trung Quốc. Do đó, về đào tạo, chúng ta có những quan hệ đối tác, như với Ấn Độ, một cường quốc về đào tạo Trí tuệ Nhân tạo. Chúng ta đã đào tạo 40.000 thanh niên trong lĩnh vực Trí tuệ Nhân tạo nhưng con số này sẽ tăng lên thành 100.000 người. Chúng ta cũng có những nhà khoa học về dữ liệu, những nhà toán học. Pháp có rất nhiều tài năng. Và đó là một sức mạnh to lớn. Nhưng Pháp cũng bị thụt lùi về các trung tâm dữ liệu, có nghĩa là khả năng tính toán. Để làm được việc này, cần phải có những siêu máy tính, thu thập khối lượng dữ liệu lớn. Và cần khẩn trương thực hiện. Do đó, tôi muốn thông báo tối nay rằng châu Âu và Pháp sẽ thúc đẩy tiến trình này. Pháp thông báo tại Thượng đỉnh Hành động về Trí tuệ Nhân tạo 109 tỉ euro đầu tư vào lĩnh vực AI trong những năm tới. Đây là chuyện chưa từng có. Khoản đầu tư này tương xứng với những thông báo của Mỹ về quỹ Stargate với 500 tỉ đô la đầu tư. Trong số các nhà đầu tư, Các Tiểu Vương Quốc Ả Rập Thống Nhất đầu tư vào một trung tâm dữ liệu lớn ở Pháp. Ngoài ra còn có những quỹ đầu tư lớn của Mỹ, Canada cùng với rất nhiều doanh nghiệp Pháp ». Đọc thêm : AI : Bài toán khó để Pháp và Liên Âu không bị loại khỏi bàn cờ quốc tế về Trí tuệ Nhân tạoCụ thể, theo trang Les Echos, Quỹ MGX của Các Tiểu Vương Quốc Ả Rập Thống Nhất đầu tư 50 tỉ euro xây dựng một trung dữ liệu lớn có công suất 1 GW. Trên tổng số 20 tỉ euro đầu tư vào AI tại Pháp, quỹ đầu tư Canada Brookfieal dành 15 tỉ euro để xây dựng nhiều trung tâm dữ liệu, trong đó có một trung tâm có công suất 1 GW ở Cambrai, nơi trở thành phòng thí nghiệm ở miền bắc Pháp. Theo điện Elysée, « những dự án này cho thấy lực hấp dẫn của Pháp, cũng như chất lượng mạng lưới điện và đường truyền internet, đủ lớn và vững chắc để tiếp nhận tất cả những nhà máy về AI trong tương lai ».Ngoài ra, rất nhiều dự án xây dựng mới liên quan đến AI cũng được các quỹ đầu tư Fluidstack của Anh, Equinix, Digital Realty và Prologis của Mỹ, Evroc của Thụy Điển, Sesterce của Pháp lần lượt thông báo tại Thượng đỉnh Hành động về AI. Công ty khởi nghiệp Mistral AI, chủ sở hữu Le Chat, cũng thông báo « đầu tư vài tỉ euro » vào một trung tâm dữ liệu lớn, được đặt tại Saclay, khu đại học nổi tiếng ở tỉnh Essonne, ngoại ô Paris.Le Chat - cạnh tranh với DeepSeek và ChatGPT Phần mềm Le Chat là sản phẩm của Mistral AI, start-up được cho là còn non trẻ so với những đối thủ. Arthur Mensch, từng làm việc cho Google và DeepMind và hai cộng sự Guillaume Lample và Timothée Lacroix, từng làm việc cho Meta, thành lập Mistral AI tháng 04/2023 và đã kêu gọi được đầu tư hơn 6 tỉ euro. Bộ trưởng Kinh Tế Éric Lombard không ngần ngại quảng bá cho « sản phẩm Pháp » là đã chuẩn bị một buổi phỏng vấn nhờ ứng dụng Le Chat. Cách thực hiện giống như « kiểu đóng vai », theo giải thích của nhà sáng lập Arthur Mensch khi trả lời phỏng vấn đài France 2 ngày 10/02 :« Le Chat có thể tìm những câu hỏi ở đâu ư ? Phần mềm Le Chat thông minh, nên cô đọng được kiến thức nhân loại. Le Chat biết y học là gì, lịch sử là gì và truyền thông là gì. Le Chat cũng biết tất cả các ngôn ngữ nên có thể dùng ứng dụng này để dịch mọi thứ. Và khi bạn đưa ra chỉ dẫn, chẳng hạn như tôi phải chuẩn bị cho một cuộc phỏng vấn, Le Chat có thể giải thích chuẩn bị một cuộc phỏng vấn như thế nào, hình dung ra những câu hỏi và giúp chuẩn bị. Đó là một ví dụ có có thể truyền tải nhanh trong giáo dục. Ví dụ một sinh viên ngành toán hay triết học có thể nhờ Le Chat đặt câu hỏi ôn tập và về lâu dài là để củng cố kiến thức của mình. Đúng là có trường hợp gian lận, nhờ Le Chat làm hộ bài tập. Nhưng cần phải đặt câu hỏi là tại sao phải làm bài tập ? Đó là để học hỏi điều gì đó. Cho nên cần phải coi trí tuệ nhân tạo mà Le Chat cung cấp là một cách học nhanh hơn, không phải để gian lận. Cần phải giữ đúng mục đích chính của việc làm bài tập, chứ không đề cao vào thành phẩm cuối cùng ». Đọc thêm : Trí tuệ Nhân tạo và những rủi ro khó có thể kiểm soátPháp cần tập thể để cạnh tranh Trước khi diễn ra Thượng đỉnh Hành động về Trí tuệ Nhân tạo, Pháp cũng như Liên Hiệp Châu Âu hứng cú sốc DeepSeek. Ông Bruno Bonnell, tổng thư ký France 2030 - kế hoạch tài chính của Pháp về khả năng cạnh tranh - thừa nhận : « DeepSeek giống như lời cảnh tỉnh mà chúng ta cần ». Mô hình AI tạo sinh từ Trung Quốc được quảng bá ít tốn kém hơn rất nhiều nhưng hiệu quả hoàn toàn không kém nếu so sánh với những khoản tiền khổng lồ được đổ vào các tập đoàn AI của Mỹ.Arthur Mensch, nhà đồng sáng lập công ty Mistral AI, giải thích Le Chat, được khởi động cùng lúc với DeepSeek của Trung Quốc, có lợi thế về chi phí thấp hơn so với những ứng dụng của Mỹ. Điều này cho thấy Pháp cũng như châu Âu có điều kiện tham gia cuộc đua AI :« Tôi nghĩ châu Âu có vai trò thực sự, đặc biệt là vì có nguồn nhân tài đặc biệt đáng chú ý, điều này cho phép chúng ta hiệu quả hơn nhiều so với các đối thủ cạnh tranh ở Mỹ trong việc xây dựng công nghệ, với chi phí ít hơn. Vì thế phải vun đắp lợi thế này và cũng tương tự như vậy trong môi trường AI. Quá trình này sẽ được xây dựng nhanh hơn nếu các công ty châu Âu nhận ra rằng họ có lợi khi hợp tác với các doanh nghiệp châu Âu khác để đẩy nhanh lộ trình Trí tuệ Nhân tạo của mình. Và vì thế châu Âu thực sự có vai trò quan trọng với phần còn lại của thế giới. Ví dụ, chúng tôi đã mở chi nhánh tại Singapore và có những khách hàng đầu tiên ở đó. Có thể thấy là có một cơ hội thực sự, không phải của Mỹ và không phải của Trung Quốc ». Đọc thêm : Trí tuệ Nhân tạo : Hủy hoại hay thân thiện với môi trường ?Dù được cho là phong phú nhưng hệ sinh thái công nghệ châu Âu vẫn còn khiêm tốn so với những gã khổng lồ Trung Quốc và Mỹ. Theo Les Echos, chỉ cần nhìn vào những định giá toàn cầu lớn nhất để thấy châu Âu vắng bóng như thế nào. Pháp, nơi có khoảng 750 start-up về AI với 35.000 người làm việc trong lĩnh vực này, không giấu tham vọng muốn đứng đầu Liên Âu về AI. Tuy nhiên, khi trả lời RFI ngày 10/02, bà Anne Bouverot, đặc phái viên của tổng thống Pháp về Thượng đỉnh Hành động về Trí tuệ Nhân tạo, lưu ý đến tinh thần « tập thể » :« Có những chuyện người ta không thể làm một mình. Dĩ nhiên Pháp có tham vọng đứng đầu về Trí tuệ Nhân tạo và Pháp có nhiều lợi thế. Người ta nói đến Mistral hoặc các công ty khởi nghiệp như Hugging Face, poolside, Pigment… có tầm quan trọng trong lĩnh vực AI, cũng như những tài năng, những nhà nghiên cứu, kĩ sư một cách rất ấn tượng. Chúng ta có vị thế tốt về Trí tuệ Nhân tạo. Nhưng khi nhìn vào những khoản đầu tư cần thiết để phát triển AI thì có rất nhiều việc phải làm theo tập thể, ở tầm mức châu Âu ».Tổng thống Macron muốn Pháp và Liên Hiệp Châu Âu tiến nhanh theo « mô hình tái thiết nhà thờ Đức Bà Paris » trong 5 năm, huy động mọi nguồn lực để bù khoảng thời gian chậm trễ so với Mỹ và Trung Quốc. Theo chuyên gia Charleyne Biondi, Viện Montaigne, châu Âu hiện chỉ chiếm 18% trung tâm dữ liệu trên thế giới, chưa đầy 5% trong số này là thuộc về các doanh nghiệp châu Âu, phần còn lại đều thuộc về các đại tập đoàn Mỹ như AWS, Google và Microsoft Azure. Ngày 11/02, chủ tịch Ủy Ban Châu Âu Ursula von der Leyen công bố một « chiến lược châu Âu về AI » với ngân sách 200 tỉ euro, mục đích là để « tăng tốc », « đơn giản hóa quy định » và « tăng cường thị trường chung duy nhất », cùng với nhiều biện pháp khác.

MONEY FM 89.3 - Prime Time with Howie Lim, Bernard Lim & Finance Presenter JP Ong
Did you know that a ChatGPT query takes up nearly 10 times the amount of electricity needed to run a Google search on average? That's right. And what that means is that the current boom in artificial intelligence we're seeing is driving up a significant increase in data centre workload and demand for data centre capacity. For one thing, the International Data Corporation or IDC expects the surging demand for AI workloads to drive up AI data centre capacity at a projected compound annual growth rate of 40.5% from 2024 through 2027. But how has that filtered down to data centre operators and related REITs? That's what we are going to find out from our guest for today, Digital Core REIT. Listed on the mainboard of the SGX in 2021, Digital Core Reit is said to be the only pure-play data centre Singapore REIT sponsored by data centre owner and operator Digital Realty. The REIT has a principal investment strategy of investing in a diversified portfolio of stabilised income-producing real estate assets located globally which are used primarily for data centre purposes, as well as assets necessary to support the digital economy. Currently, the REIT holds US$1.4B in assets under management and 10 data centres in its portfolio. But how will this change amid the boom in AI, and how far will Southeast Asia be a bright spot for the firm, with big techs pouring investments into the region to build data centres? Also – how does Digital Core REIT assess Singapore as a destination to host data centres? On Under the Radar, The Evening Runway's finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to John Stewart, CEO, Digital Core REIT. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In our latest Tech Talks Daily Podcast episode, I sit down with Seamus Dunne from Digital Realty to explore the accelerating demand for compute power driven by AI and generative AI technologies. As these innovations push the boundaries of what's possible, the infrastructure supporting them must evolve at a matching pace—or risk being left behind. Seamus delves into the heart of the matter, explaining how Digital Realty responds to the rising demand for high-performance infrastructure like GPUs and AI chips. He shares insights on how AI drives the need for robust data storage and efficient data access solutions. The discussion touches on the strategic importance of local investment in infrastructure to maintain competitive advantage, especially in regions like the UK. We also explore the types of AI workloads becoming prevalent across various sectors. Currently, a significant portion of these workloads is dedicated to training models. Still, Seamus anticipates a shift towards inferencing as AI models mature and become integral to advanced products and services. This shift necessitates a robust and adaptable IT infrastructure strategy to deploy AI models alongside cloud services effectively. Seamus highlights how data centers are pivotal in our daily digital activities—from streaming Netflix and conducting Zoom calls to online shopping and planning holidays. Beyond everyday conveniences, data centers are the powerhouse behind generative AI and other innovations driving economic growth. Seamus discusses the evolving needs of AI infrastructure, emphasizing the importance of proximity to data centers for low-latency performance, particularly for AI inferencing. He also touches on the geographical advantages and challenges, noting how regions like the UK are well-positioned for AI growth while others, like Dublin, may need more support due to regulatory constraints.
AWS, Digital Realty, Google, Meta, Microsoft and Schneider Electric Call for Supplier Action to Help Decarbonize Digital Infrastructure iMasons Climate Accord Governing Body Members Sign Open Letter Outlining Importance of Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) Amid Rapid Growth of Data Centers Leading digital infrastructure companies call for industry adoption of Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) to accelerate net-zero ambitions Scope 3 emissions make up large percentage of hyperscale and data center carbon emissions Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) detail the greenhouse gas emissions of infrastructure products through their entire lifecycle Why it is important to Decarbonise Digital Infrastructure The Governing Body of the iMasons Climate Accord, a program of Infrastructure Masons, is calling on all suppliers serving data centers to support greater transparency in Scope 3 emissions as part of broader efforts to reduce the industry's carbon footprint. Consisting of AWS, Digital Realty, Google, Meta, Microsoft and Schneider Electric, the Governing Body released an open letter today that explains the importance of widespread adoption of Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), which are standardized, third-party-verified documents reporting the embodied emissions of a product. EPDs outline the greenhouse gas emissions of a product through its entire lifecycle, from the raw materials in the product (e.g., how they are extracted, transported, and processed), to manufacturing, transportation, product use, and product end-of-life (e.g., landfill, recycling, repurposing, etc.). While EPDs are common in some business sectors, there is not widespread adoption of EPDs in the data center industry. The open letter demonstrates a significant push forward from the world's largest hyperscalers and digital infrastructure companies to drive meaningful change across the industry, working in partnership with their trusted suppliers. It is essential to continue to ensure the digital infrastructure industry decarbonizes as it grows. The signatories of the iMasons Governing Body's open letter all have net-zero carbon emissions commitments in place to address their responsibility in mitigating data center carbon emissions (with deadlines ranging from 2025 to 2040, which is at least 10 years ahead of the Paris Agreement), and this letter marks another milestone toward decarbonizing of operations. Hyperscalers have implemented strategies to reduce and/or mitigate Scope 1 and 2 emissions. As they seek to reach net-zero carbon emissions in the coming years, solving the next piece of the sustainability puzzle lies in reducing Scope 3 emissions, which can represent anywhere from 38-69% of data centers' total carbon footprint. Scope 3 emissions are not produced by the company itself; rather, they include the indirect emissions throughout the value chain. Access to the critical information in EPDs empowers data center owners, operators, and end-users to effectively calculate their environmental impact and choose products (servers, cooling systems, uninterruptible power supplies [UPS]) and services based on lower Scope 3 emissions, best aligning with sustainability targets. "EPDs are crucial in transforming the future of digital infrastructure to be more resilient and climate positive. The adoption of EPDs within the global supply chain fosters both sustainable and accountable outcomes. As standardized and verified data provides a layer of transparency, this initiative supports a collective approach to reducing our carbon emissions and environmental footprints," said Miranda Gardiner, Executive Director of the iMasons Climate Accord, a coalition of 250+ members that represents an $8 trillion combined market cap. "At AWS, we are committed to reaching net-zero carbon emissions across our operations by 2040 by investing in carbon-free energy, scaling solutions, and collaborating with partners to broaden our impact," said Eric Wilcox, V...

In this episode of Infrastructure Matters, Camberley Bates, Steven Dickens, and Krista Macomber discuss recent developments in the tech industry, including Palo Alto's earnings revision, IBM's security report, Lenovo's earnings, and Hammerspace's new Hyperscale NAS release. They delve into the implications of these developments for cybersecurity, infrastructure, and AI. Key points discussed include: Palo Alto Networks lowers earnings expectations, causing a stir in tech and financial markets. Stock value increased due to cybersecurity focus. Shifting towards a platform approach may lead to short-term pricing sacrifices but is a wise long-term move. The X-Force Threat Intelligence Report by IBM reveals cybersecurity trends, with a focus on cybercriminals exploiting user identity. Attacks on critical infrastructure are a concern, emphasizing the need to prioritize cybersecurity basics like patching and multifactor authentication. The report suggests that attacks on AI yield limited returns, indicating that AI in security is growing but not yet a primary target for cybercriminals. Lenovo reported a record PC market share and year-on-year growth, with 42% of revenue from non-PC sources. They have a strong presence in the cloud, collaborate with Digital Realty for AI in data centers, and released Hammerspace's Hyperscale NAS which addresses high-performance data storage in AI environments.

Data Center Frontier editors Matt Vincent and David Chernicoff recently caught up with Cyxtera's Field CTO Holland Barry on the occasion of Cyxtera and Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) announcing a new collaboration to help simplify customers' hybrid IT strategies. Cyxtera is now leveraging HPE's GreenLake edge-to-cloud platform to support an enterprise bare metal platform. The podcast discussion extends to how Cyxtera is presently focused on supporting AI workloads in data centers and collaborating with HPE to offer a multi-hybrid cloud strategy. Barry revealed during the podcast that Cyxtera already supports 70 kilowatt racks in 18 markets, and is discussing expanded deployments with its customers and partners. Barry added that many present customers are considering moving to private cloud platforms, due to rising public cloud costs and unexpected fees. Barry said, "My function here at Cyxtera deals largely with the technologies that we both implement internally and also that we deploy within the data centers themselves to make sure that experience of being in the data center colo facility is seamless, feels as much like cloud as it can in terms of the provisioning of services, how we bill for things, things like that." He added, "Generally speaking, I'm a technologist at heart and I just want to make sure that what we're building is what's useful for the market to consume." Here's a list of key points discussed on the podcast: 2:01 - Barry talks about Cyxtera's vision for supporting AI workloads in data centers, including cooling technologies, network speed, power designs, and accommodating adjacencies with edge and public cloud platforms. 4:18 - DCF's Chernicoff asks if Cyxtera will offer 70 kilowatt racks a la Digital Realty. Barry explains that Cyxtera already supports this capacity in 18 of its markets, and is in active discussions with customers and partners over an expansion. 5:40 - Barry discusses how Cyxtera's collaboration with HPE addresses rising cloud costs and furthers a multi-hybrid cloud strategy, including Cyxtera's new enterprise bare metal platform and options for opex financing models. 7:53 - Use cases for customers moving to the HPE GreenLake solution via Cyxtera are discussed, including repatriating cloud workloads and tech refreshes. 15:03 - Asked about the convergence of cloud and hybrid IT strategies, Barry says that Cyxtera views themselves as part of such transformations and says the provider is up front with its customers about what workloads are best suited for their platform. The trend of recalibrating workloads from the public cloud to data centers for better cost management is also discussed. 18:22 - Barry expounds on how egress fees and other unexpected costs can lead to a "death by 1000 cuts" situation for public cloud users, driving them to consider private cloud options 19:57 - Barry observes that many customers are realizing the costs of the public cloud and considering moving to a private cloud solution, and emphasizes the importance of Cyxtera making this transition as easy as possible through technology choices and partnerships. 21:57 - Barry comments on the new Cyxtera partnership with HPE in the context of providing choices and solutions to make moving customer workloads to their venue as easy as possible, with the goal of building a multi-hybrid cloud reality in the future. Background on Cyxtera Cyxtera Technologies operates a global network of 60 data centers, supports 2,300 customers, and had $746 million in revenue in 2022. The company was formed in 2016 when Medina Capital, led by former Terremark CEO Manuel Medina, teamed with investors including BC Partners to buy the data center portfolio of CenturyLink for $2.15 billion. It was at that time one of several data center players seeking to build a colocation business atop a portfolio of data centers spun off by telecom companies. This April, Data Center Frontier's Rich Miller reported that Cyxtera Technologies was reportedly fielding interest from suitors as it sought to reduce its debt load. Data Center Dynamics at that time shared that Cyxtera was exploring options for a sale or capital raise, citing a Bloomberg story that said private equity suitors were studying the company's operations. Shares of Cyxtera had fallen sharply in value during that timeframe and were trading at 31 cents a share at one point, giving the company a market capitalization of about $55 million, a far cry from the $3.4 billion valuation placed on the company when it went public in 2021 through a merger with Starboard Value Acquisition Corp. In May, as shares of Cyxtera fell to new lows, DCF reported lenders for the company said they would provide the colocation provider with $50 million in new funding, allowing it more time to arrange a sale or line up new capital. In June, the colocation provider filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. After working for months to find a buyer or reduce its debt load, the company decided it would now restructure through a pre-packaged bankruptcy. The Chapter 11 filing was part of an arrangement with its lenders, who retained the right to gain a controlling equity interest in the company under terms of a restructuring agreement. At the time of the bankruptcy filing, some of the company's lenders committed to provide $200 million in financing to enable Cyxtera to continue operating as it restructures. "Cyxtera expects to use the Chapter 11 process to strengthen the company's financial position, meaningfully deleverage its balance sheet and facilitate the business's long-term success," the company said in a press release." More details have been made available on Cyxtera's restructuring web site. Cyxtera subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Germany and Singapore are not included in the bankruptcy case, which was filed in New Jersey. Dgtl Infra's Mary Zhang has done significant recent reporting over the summer on the story of Cyxtera's existing lease rejections in wake of the bankruptcy filing, as well as charting the company's timeline extension for its bankruptcy-led sale process into late September. In his June reporting on Cyxtera's bankruptcy filing, DCF's Miller noted that: "Since Cyxtera leases many of its data centers, Cyxtera's Chapter 11 filing creates a potential challenge for its landlords. Cyxtera leases space in 15 facilities operated by Digital Realty, representing $61.5 million in annual revenue, or about 1.7 percent of Digital's annual revenue. It also leases space in 6 data centers owned by Digital Core REIT, a Singapore-based public company sponsored by Digital Realty. That includes two sites in Los Angeles, three in Silicon Valley and one in Frankfurt. The $16.3 million in annual rent from Cyxtera represents 22.3 percent of revenue for Digital Core REIT. A bankruptcy filing provides debtors with the opportunity to reject leases to reduce their real estate costs. In its press release, Cyxtera noted that it "is continuing to evaluate its data center footprint, consistent with its commitment to optimizing operations." An August report from Bloomberg stated that Cyxtera had drawn interest for its assets from multiple parties, including Brookfield Infrastructure Partners and Digital Realty Trust Inc., according to people with knowledge of the situation. as reported by Bloomberg's Reshmi Basu. In a recent email to this editor regarding Cyxtera, DCF's Miller opined further: "The key questions for Cyxtera are really all about the bankruptcy outcome, and where that stands. The future could be very different for Cyxtera depending who the winning bidder is and whether they would reject leases. For example, Digital Realty is reported to be one of the bidders. That makes sense, as Cyxtera leases 12 facilities from them and DLR has a vested interest in protecting that income. But if Digital wins the auction, do they keep leasing space in Cyxtera's many non-Digital sites? Or do they reject those leases and consolidate? The auction winner will guide future strategy for Cyxtera. And it could be very different if it's a private equity firm vs. a strategic buyer like Digital Realty." On August 7, concurrent with its business update for Q2, Cyxtera announced that it had reached a key milestone in its Chapter 11 process by filing a proposed plan of reorganization with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey, and said it had reached an agreement with its lenders to optimize the company's capital structure and reduce its pre-filing funded debt by more than $950 million. In its Q2 update, the company said it had delivered solid growth in total revenue, recurring revenue, core revenue and transaction adjusted EBITDA. Cyxtera's August 7 press release added that negotiations around the company's sale alternative remained active. According to a press release, the proposed reorganization plan is supported by certain of Cyxtera's lenders who collectively hold over two-thirds of the company's outstanding first lien debt, and are parties to Cyxtera's previously announced restructuring support agreement. The company said the proposed plan provides flexibility for the company to pursue a balance sheet recapitalization or a sale of the business. Cyxtera noted that if the plan is approved and a recapitalization is consummated, the lenders have committed to support a holistic restructuring of the company's balance sheet. Such a restructuring would eliminate more than $950 million of Cyxtera's pre-filing debt and provide the company with enhanced financial flexibility to invest in its business for the benefit of its customers and partners. For Q2 of 2023, Cyxtera said its total revenue increased by $14.9 million, or 8.1% YoY, to $199.0 million in the second quarter of 2023. On a constant currency basis, the company's total revenue increased by $15.1 million, or 8.2% YoY. Recurring revenue increased by $15.8 million, or 9.1% YoY, to $190.0 million in the second quarter. Cyxtera added that its core revenue increased by $17.4 million, or 10.3% YoY, to $186.2 million in the second quarter. Finally, the company said its transaction Adjusted EBITDA increased by $6.4 million, or 10.7%, to $66.4 million and increased by $6.5 million, or 10.9% YoY, on a constant currency basis, in the second quarter. Carlos Sagasta, Cyxtera's Chief Financial Officer, said, “We are pleased to have delivered another quarter of solid growth across the business, underscoring the strength of our offering and the value we create for our global customers. We expect to continue building on this momentum as we successfully complete the process to strengthen our financial position for the long term.” The press release added that in either a recapitalization or sale scenario, the company remains on track to emerge from the court-supervised process no later than the fall of this year. The company said it had received multiple qualified bids to date. Final bids from interested parties in the sale process were originally due on August 18, a deadline which came and went. An auction slated for August 30 was also cancelled. Nelson Fonseca, Cyxtera's Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We continue to make important progress in our court-supervised process, while demonstrating solid performance across our business. Filing this plan with the support of our lenders provides us a path to emerge in a significantly stronger financial position.” Here are links to some recent DCF articles on Cyxtera: Colocation Provider Cyxtera Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Cyxtera Gets $50 Million Funding, More Time to Seek a Buyer As Stock Price Slumps, Cyxtera Reportedly Mulling Capital Raise or Sale Cyxtera Goes Public as Starboard SPAC Acquisition Closes Cyxtera to Go Public Through $3.4 Billion Merger With Starboard SPAC

This episode of Over the Edge features an interview between Matt Trifiro and Christian Koch, Founder and Editor at Foundations, a modern publication about digital infrastructure. He is a veteran leader in the digital infrastructure space having held several leadership and operational roles at companies such as Microsoft, Twitter, and Globix. Christian was most recently the Head of Interconnection Product at DataBank, and previously a Director of Product Management at Digital Realty and PacketFabric. In 2016, Christian Co-Founded the New York Network Operators Group, a non-profit organization that aims to connect network operators and technology professionals through educational events and programs.In this episode, Christian talks about how his interest in information and curiosity to learn about as much as he could, led him to become both a generalist and expert in the world of digital infrastructure. He explains the landscape of interconnectivity, including its history of development, current infrastructure, expansion, evolution, and use throughout the United States. Christian also delves into what he thinks edge is becoming, the different layers of networking, and how the cloud will become a primary infrastructure for workloads in the future. ---------Key Quotes:“Ethernet seems to be having this resurgence because it's probably the one technology that's is flexible as virtual machines in the cloud. You can basically scale it up and down. Whereas, you can go from a five gigabit ethernet circuit to a 10 gigabit ethernet circuit by issuing some configuration commands and making that change. Similar to how you can configure or reconfigure a virtual machine. Whereas, a wavelength isn't really like that, because it's all about dedicated connectivity. So if you think about ethernet share connectivity, that's what cloud computing is at the end of the day anyway; the shared infrastructure platform. So it makes it a little bit more flexible, and a little bit more easy to scale and deliver those services.”“I don't even like using the word edge anymore because, you know, because I think it really boils down to it's just a place like geographical place. Right? You know, it doesn't have to do with networks. It doesn't have to do with clouds. It didn't have to do with computing. It's just, you know, kind of the perimeter between almost like interconnection.”---------Show Timestamps: (02:00) Getting Interested in Technology(04:30) Path to Networking and Interconnection(05:50) Explaining Interconnection(09:15) Backbone of Interconnectivity in the United States(15:43) Public versus Private Networks(18:45) Internet as a Fabric(21:06) Network as a Service(32:00) State of the Edge (37:30) Internet Trends(40:30) The Price of Shipping Data(44:00) Future Trends--------Sponsor:Over the Edge is brought to you by Dell Technologies - unlock the potential of your infrastructure with edge solutions.
