Patmos Expands AI Capabilities with New Datacenter
Patmos, a notable provider of Internet infrastructure and datacenter services, has unveiled the expansion of its AI datacenter facility in Kansas City. This expansion introduces immediate availability of 10MW of collocation space specially designed for high-density GPU, High-Performance Computing (HPC), and AI infrastructure.
A Purpose-Built AI Facility
This facility marks the first AI Campus created by Patmos, which aims to transform vacant industrial buildings into advanced data centers. Alongside this, the space will also cater to entertainment events, conferences, and co-working needs, establishing a truly multifunctional environment.
Operational Highlights
Since assuming operations in late 2024, the Patmos datacenter has grown its capacity to 35MW, offering AI enterprises a scalable solution with colocation in 2.5MW increments. The datacenter can meet client specifications with rapid deployment timelines of just 90 days, coupled with remarkable density options exceeding 100kW per rack.
Meeting Demand in the AI Sector
Joe Morgan, the Chief Operating Officer of Patmos, emphasizes the increasing demand for AI infrastructure, which significantly surpasses the current supply. Kansas City is strategically poised to address this need, equipped with skilled labor, superior connectivity, and supportive municipal authorities.
Quick Adaptation to Market Needs
According to Morgan, constructing new AI-ready datacenters from the ground up involves significant complexity and time. In contrast, by retrofitting existing spaces like the former site of The KC Star newspaper, Patmos can meet these infrastructural demands within months, rather than years. The introduction of 10MW of capacity is a vital step toward welcoming new tenants.
Creating a Community Hub
The comprehensive 360,000 square-foot campus is designed to support both startups and larger enterprises, with spaces allocated for various community events, conferences, and networking gatherings. This environment fosters collaboration and innovation, key components in the tech industry's ongoing evolution.
