Aligned Data Centers designs, builds, owns, and operates large-scale colocation and build-to-scale data center campuses for hyperscalers, cloud providers, AI neoclouds, and enterprises across the Americas. As of 2026 the company’s portfolio spans roughly 51 campuses and more than 6.4GW of operational and planned capacity, concentrated in Tier I U.S. gateway markets (Northern Virginia, Chicago, Dallas-Fort Worth, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, Ohio, Atlanta, and the Portland area) plus Latin America (Brazil, Mexico, Chile, and Colombia) through its ODATA subsidiary. Aligned is best known for its proprietary Delta cooling technology family (including DeltaFlow liquid cooling for high-density GPU racks) and a pay-per-use, modular “adaptive” infrastructure model that lets customers scale power and space without reconfiguring buildings. In 2026 the company was acquired from Macquarie Asset Management by a consortium of BlackRock’s Global Infrastructure Partners, Abu Dhabi’s MGX, and the Artificial Intelligence Infrastructure Partnership (backed by Microsoft and Nvidia) in a roughly $40 billion deal — the largest data center acquisition on record — underscoring its position as a leading platform for AI-driven infrastructure demand.
