Scala Data Centers is a Latin American hyperscale colocation platform, founded in 2020 and backed by DigitalBridge, that builds and operates single-tenant and multi-tenant data center campuses for hyperscale cloud providers, large enterprises, and financial institutions. As of a January 2026 industry report, Scala had 13 operational data centers with 7 more under construction across Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Colombia, and the company has said it expects to reach 500MW of distributed IT capacity across the four countries it operates in. Its flagship asset is the multi-building Tamboré Campus near São Paulo, Brazil, which as of 2025 included the largest vertical data center in Latin America, and it also runs sites in Rio de Janeiro, Porto Alegre, Curauma (Chile), and Tepotzotlán (Mexico), with additional campuses planned in Fortaleza, Jundiaí (Brazil), Lampa (Chile), and Bogotá (Colombia). Scala differentiates itself with a proprietary construction methodology called FastDeploy, said to build data centers up to 50% faster than traditional methods, and with a strategy built almost entirely around single-tenant, hyperscale-focused buildings tied to renewable-energy partnerships.
