Equinix has partnered with Central Georgia Electric Membership Corporation to develop a data centre in Hampton, Georgia, using a contract model designed to shield ratepayers from infrastructure costs. Under the 20-year take-or-pay agreement, Equinix will cover all expenses for grid upgrades, including a new high-voltage substation and transmission lines. The arrangement aligns with what the company describes as President Trump's Ratepayer Protection Pledge. Equinix will provide upfront payments for infrastructure improvements and assume financial responsibility for any cost overruns associated with the project. The Hampton facility is expected to generate up to $20 million annually in property tax revenue and create more than 990 jobs. Equinix has operated in metro Atlanta for over 15 years.

All Nippon Airways builds cloud network hub with Equinix. Equinix, Inc., one of the world's digital infrastructure companies, recently announced that All Nippon Airways Co., Ltd. (ANA) has transformed its digital infrastructure with Equinix Fabric to support the next generation of passenger services, including reservations, boarding, customer communications and operational systems. Facing a projected 10x increase in global data volumes, Japan's leading airline established a centralized cloud network hub that reduced network provisioning time by approximately 80%, making resources available for application development and testing. This agile foundation allows ANA to accelerate application testing, increase business agility and target a 30% reduction in its five-year total cost of ownership. As organizations modernize digital infrastructure for hybrid multicloud environments and growing data volumes, many are adopting more agile and scalable connectivity models. ANA's deployment of Equinix Fabric reflects this broader shift, transforming its network into a future-ready digital foundation that enhances passenger services, increases business agility, and supports long-term growth. Through Equinix Fabric, ANA has accelerated connectivity deployment, improved cost efficiency and strengthened its ability to support the next generation of data-driven passenger experiences. Equinix helps ANA ensure security and compliance through private connectivity, consistent centralized policy enforcement and alignment with modern security frameworks. Jun Nakazato, Manager, IT Infrastructure Team, Digital Governance Department, Digital Transformation Division, All Nippon Airways, said, "Our rapid business expansion demanded a network with unprecedented flexibility. Rather than continuing to expand our existing network environment, we recognized that implementing network-as-a-service was the most effective path forward. Equinix Fabric delivers the dynamic foundation we need to scale seamlessly. Equinix serves not merely as a vendor, but as a critical strategic partner in modernizing our global systems and enabling our future growth." Operating approximately 280 aircraft across more than 200 domestic and international routes, ANA's operations are built on a highly resilient digital infrastructure that serves as the foundation for mission-critical passenger services, including reservations, boarding, customer communications and operational systems. As ANA expanded its business and accelerated adoption of hybrid and multicloud environments, the organization faced growing pressure to integrate increasingly sophisticated systems while maintaining the speed, flexibility and reliability expected of a world-class airline. Traditional network architectures that relied on dedicated circuits for individual systems became increasingly complex and costly to scale as connectivity requirements continued to evolve. To address these challenges, ANA redesigned its network architecture around a centralized cloud network hub powered by Equinix Fabric. The software-defined interconnection platform enables secure, on-demand connectivity to leading cloud providers, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, without the need to deploy additional physical circuits. By centralizing connectivity through Equinix Fabric, ANA has transformed its network from a traditionally provisioned infrastructure into a more agile, software-defined platform. The cloud network hub provides secure, on-demand access to leading cloud environments while enabling ANA to scale connectivity more efficiently as business needs evolve. Faster infrastructure provisioning and seamless connectivity across cloud environments can enable more integrated customer services, real-time operational coordination, and earlier adoption of new applications and services. This flexible architecture supports ANA's broader passenger service modernization strategy and provides a resilient foundation for advanced analytics, automation, emerging AI workloads and future digital innovation. Kuniko Ogawa, Managing Director, Japan, Equinix,said, "ANA's deployment of Equinix Fabric demonstrates what's possible when enterprises evolve how they consume infrastructure, not by ripping and replacing, but by adding intelligence and flexibility on top of a resilient physical infrastructure. We're proud to support ANA as it builds a digital foundation capable of handling tomorrow's data demands while delivering better experiences for passengers today."
