Chester

AI-Ready By Design:

Our Chester, UK Data Center

Chester is home to many AI-focussed sectors, including manufacturing, insurance, media, and chemicals, establishing it as a vital regional center.

In Chester, we recently completed a major installation for a leading provider of full-stack AI and High Performance Computing (HPC) solutions.

The project involved installing 72 high-density racks, delivering a total capacity of 3MW, and was successfully completed in just 14 weeks — a testament to the speed, precision, and expertise of our team.

Latency

Built for speed, our ultra-low-latency locations minimize delay to milliseconds—perfect for mission-critical real-time applications.

Power

High density positions in line with NVIDIA reference architecture.

Cooling

Leveraging advanced rear door heat exchanger technology for high-efficiency cooling.

Connectivity

A wide choice of providers for connecting to clouds, carrier networks, and partners – reducing latency and keeping your infrastructure connected.

Sustainability

Powered by 100% renewable energy and repurposing waste heat, our data centers deliver high performance with a minimal environmental footprint.
