Frequently asked questions

How are the Top 100 AI datacenters ranked?
We rank by deployed GPU capacity, contracted power envelope, network fabric (InfiniBand, NVLink, Spectrum-X), and PUE — using public filings, operator disclosures, and on-the-ground reporting through Q1 2026.
What counts as an AI datacenter versus a general cloud datacenter?
An AI datacenter dedicates at least 40% of its IT load to GPU or accelerator workloads, with rack densities above 30 kW and liquid-cooling readiness. Cross-reference our Top 100 AI Factories list for single-purpose training sites.
How often is the ranking updated?
The list is refreshed quarterly. The current edition reflects facilities operating or commissioned as of Q1 2026.
Are sovereign and neocloud datacenters included?
Yes. Tier 5 covers neocloud flagships (CoreWeave, Crusoe, Lambda, Nebius) and Tier 6 covers sovereign sites in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and APAC.
Where can I see the operators behind these facilities?
Our companion Top 100 Datacenter Operators ranking covers the corporate platforms running the sites listed here.
