EdgeConneX, a pioneer in global Build-to-Suit and Build-to-Density data center solutions, announces it is building 30+ Megawatts (MW) of state-of-the-art high-density data center infrastructure in Chicago and Atlanta with Lambda, the Superintelligence Cloud. This landmark dual-city infrastructure development leverages hybrid cooling technologies that combine liquid-to-the-chip direct cooling and air cooling, creating a flexible and optimized environment to support advanced AI and cloud workloads. As part of Lambda’s aggressive infrastructure expansion, EdgeConneX is developing a build-to-density, single-tenant 23MW data center in Chicago that will be Ready for Service (RFS) in 2026. In addition, EdgeConneX designed and operates two air-cooled sites for Lambda, in Atlanta (ATL02) and Chicago.
Lambda has long been recognized as a leader in artificial intelligence infrastructure, with cloud solutions allowing the top AI Labs building Superintelligence, Hyperscalers and Enterprises to easily scale from prototyping and training, to serving billions of users in production. Its collaboration with EdgeConneX represents a strategic advancement for its 2GW+ vision that leads to over a million GPUs deployed by the end of the decade. EdgeConneX’s innovative hybrid cooling design will effectively support the high-power demands of next-generation AI accelerators while ensuring energy efficiency and environmental sustainability.
The Chicago high-capacity infrastructure is anchored by EdgeConneX Ingenuity next-generation data center solution, specifically engineered to meet the demands of High-Performance Computing (HPC), AI training, and AI inferencing workloads. With its ability to support densities exceeding 600+kW per rack, Ingenuity provides the scalability and flexibility required to power and future-proof Lambda’s innovative AI technologies.
