Vantage Data Centers is a major hyperscale colocation operator with a significant presence in Silicon Valley (Santa Clara, San Jose), Phoenix, Arizona, and other US markets. The company specializes in purpose-built hyperscale facilities that serve large cloud and AI companies seeking colocation alternatives to fully owned infrastructure.

Vantage's US West campuses are particularly significant for AI workloads — Silicon Valley proximity makes them attractive for AI companies including hyperscalers, cloud providers, and large AI startups that need to locate GPU clusters close to engineering talent and internet exchange points.
