Latin American data center firm Ascenty, a joint venture between Digital Realty and Brookfield Infrastructure, recently celebrated 15 years in the Latin American market by announcing a new 47MW, 40,000 sqm (430,555 sq ft) facility.
“We’ve seen strong demand from clients for space in our data centers to meet the growing need for connectivity and infrastructure, driven by the technological evolution of digital services and the need for robust, high-availability, low-latency connectivity,” said Chris Torto, founder and CEO of Ascenty.
“When I started my career in 1982, the Internet already existed, but no one talked about it. It only took off with the advent of graphical browsers. The same is happening with artificial intelligence - it’s been around for years, but with the emergence of Gen AI and new ways of interacting, AI has exploded. This is the future.”
The company also noted that it will soon launch operations at its third facility in Chile, SCL03.
“We are proud to be Ascenty’s partner and are confident in its continued growth and expanding leadership as Latin America’s premier data center platform,” said Andy Power, president and CEO of Digital Realty.
