ODATA, an Aligned Data Centers company and provider of data center services in Latin America, announced its new DC SP04 data center in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The 48MW facility comes at a $450+ million investment.
DC SP04 will feature a flexible, adaptive design, that enables ODATA to seamlessly meet the dynamic requirements of customers, today and into the future.
It will be the first ODATA facility in Brazil to feature the Delta Cube (Delta³) cooling system, which reinforces the company’s commitment to efficiency, innovation and flexibility in its deployments. This proprietary, high-efficiency cooling technology was developed by Aligned, and is exclusively available to ODATA across its facilities in South America. The patented design offers improved energy efficiency and flexibility to support shifting density requirements.
“We take great pride in operating with 100 percent renewable energy in Brazil, reinforcing our ongoing commitment to sustainable and responsible energy practices,” said ODATA CEO, Ricardo Alario. The integration of Delta³ in DC SP04 delivers rapid scalability, cutting-edge technological innovation, and exceptional energy efficiency, enabling us to quickly address the growing power density and capacity needs of our customers.”
Designed to support power densities of up to 50kW per rack, Delta³ allows ODATA’s data centers to maximize space utilization and significantly reduce the load required to cool them, thereby decreasing energy consumption. Unlike conventional methods that simply push cold air into data halls, Delta³ captures and removes heat directly at the source, creating a hyper-scalable and highly efficient environment that dynamically adapts to the IT load demands of customers.
“Delta³ enables us to cool hyperscale IT environments efficiently, saving both energy and space,” said Kelvin Tamura, design director, ODATA. “The system also seamlessly integrates with liquid cooling solutions, enabling ODATA to provide customers with high-density computing environments that can scale easily to accommodate AI, cloud and high-performance computing deployments.”
DC SP04 is set to significantly impact both the local economy and the technological landscape of Sao Paulo. The facility’s establishment addresses a critical gap in data center expansion capacity within Osasco, providing robust IT infrastructure and a reliable power supply. This strengthens greater Sao Paulo’s position as a leading technology hub, driving job creation and attracting significant regional investments.
DC SP04 should become operational in April.
