Aligned Data Centers (Aligned PHX01) Data Center

Aligned Data Centers, established in 2013, pioneered a unique method for data center delivery. This model grants customers the flexibility to secure and expand their capacity as required, while only paying for the power they actually consume. This foundational approach immediately sets them apart by aligning cost directly with usage, providing a significant advantage in resource management for their clients.

Central to Aligned's offering is their proprietary modular heat removal system. These innovative systems are designed not just for data centers but also for commercial applications. A key benefit of this technology is that it allows customers to seamlessly scale their operations without the need for expensive and disruptive reconfigurations of existing physical structures, thereby avoiding significant capital expenditures.

The company is guided by a formidable leadership team that collectively possesses over 175 years of shared experience in the construction and management of essential global infrastructure. While this expertise ensures operational excellence, Aligned stresses that their ongoing commitment to technological advances and innovation is continually driven by a dedicated team working behind the scenes to push the boundaries of data center technology.

Recognizing the crucial role of environmental stewardship in the hyperscale era, Aligned Data Centers has developed an adaptive platform for its facilities. This platform is specifically engineered to mitigate environmental harm while simultaneously offering a tangible economic advantage to clients by significantly reducing their total ownership costs, proving that sustainability and financial prudence can go hand-in-hand.

Globally, Aligned offers solutions like Scale Data Centers and Powered Shell/Build-to-Scale options. These facilities are reinforced with advanced, sustainability-focused cooling mechanisms. Their commitment to efficient and rapid deployment has solidified their position as a trusted partner for leading hyperscalers and large enterprises, whom they assist in developing energy-conscious data facilities designed to accommodate massive, multi-regional growth.
