Aligned Data Centers is a Dallas-based developer and operator of large-scale, wholesale colocation and “build-to-scale” data centers, serving hyperscalers, cloud providers, AI neoclouds, and enterprise customers rather than selling cloud services itself. As of 2026 the company’s portfolio spans roughly 51 campuses and more than 6.4GW of operational and planned capacity across the Americas, concentrated in Tier I gateway markets such as Northern Virginia, Chicago, Dallas, Phoenix, and Salt Lake City, plus Latin American markets in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and Chile through its 2023 acquisition of ODATA. Aligned is best known in the industry for its proprietary DeltaFlow/Delta³ liquid- and air-cooling technology, engineered to support high-density GPU and AI accelerator workloads while minimizing water use, and for the record-breaking $40 billion acquisition of the company by a BlackRock/MGX-led consortium (the AI Infrastructure Partnership) that closed in July 2026 — one of the largest private digital-infrastructure deals ever. Founded in 2013 and long backed by Macquarie Asset Management, Aligned has grown from a single Plano, Texas campus into a multi-country platform explicitly positioning itself around AI-driven capacity demand, including a new 540MW, six-building campus (“Project Caprock”) breaking ground near Abernathy, Texas in 2026 and an AI infrastructure partnership with Lambda at its Dallas DFW-04 facility supporting NVIDIA Blackwell hardware.
