Hyperscale Data's subsidiary, Alliance Cloud Services, has secured a three-year agreement with a Silicon Valley cloud services provider for its Michigan Data Center. The deal includes seven server cabinets initially, with the option to add five more. Each cabinet will utilize approximately 40 kilowatts of power, with cooling systems capable of handling double that capacity.

While this implementation uses only a small portion of the 100,000 sq.ft. facility and its 28 MW power capacity, it demonstrates the high-density power and cooling solutions needed for modern computing. The company aims to expand its data center operations to 300+ MW of power over the next four years as part of its transition to becoming a pure-play data center company.
