Data Center Design & Engineering for AI‑Scale Infrastructure
Data center facility design is entering a new era of complexity, driven by AI scale workloads, rising power constraints, and increasing pressure to deliver new capacity faster. Design decisions made today determine whether facilities can scale efficiently, support high density infrastructure, and operate sustainably across their full lifecycle. Teams that fail to plan for flexibility, densification, lifecycle ownership, and AI driven demands risk falling behind in a market defined by rapid growth and escalating technical complexity.
Advancing Data Center Design & Engineering West 2026 returns as the industry’s flagship technical forum, bringing together hyperscalers, colocators, developers, architects, and engineering teams from across the western United States. The event focuses on the design stage strategies and technical insights needed to de risk projects, protect long term performance, and future proof next generation facilities.
From designing for evolving AI workloads and evaluating flexible electrical and cooling architectures, to addressing site selection and utility readiness challenges, accelerating modularisation, and redefining resilience and systems integration, this event provides a practical playbook for modern data center facility design.
Hear real world lessons from leaders across hyperscale, colocation, edge, AI, and enterprise environments, understand the impact of emerging technologies and equipment, and leave with proven approaches you can apply directly to your designs.
I was attending for the first time and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of discussions in this setting, the varied experiences encountered, and the forum to improve our industry by solving common challenges.
