## AI Data Center
Planning, Construction and Deployment

We support the whole process of building an AI data center, from the first concept to a running GPU cluster. This covers site and power planning, facility construction and the build of the latest GPU infrastructure.

### Overview

Generative AI and large language models are growing fast, and they need data centers that are built for them. These sites require very high power density, advanced cooling and the latest GPUs.

We start with the feasibility study and the concept plan. From there we advise on design and construction, and we procure and build the GPU servers and the network. Project owners and data center operators work with a single partner from start to finish.











### What We Do

#### 1. Planning and consulting

- Feasibility studies and concept planning based on target demand such as LLM training and inference
- Support for site selection, extra high voltage power negotiations and fiber network routes
- Advice on load capacity and BCP requirements when choosing a site

#### 2. Facility construction advisory

- Power and electrical design for high density racks of several tens of kW per rack
- Introduction of liquid and water cooling, including direct to chip and immersion cooling
- Coordination and technical supervision with design firms, general contractors and equipment makers

#### 3. GPU infrastructure and AI cluster build

- Stable procurement of the latest GPU servers such as NVIDIA through our overseas supply chain
- Design and installation of high speed networks such as InfiniBand and RoCE
- Kitting and performance tuning of the system, OS and middleware layers





### Why Upgrade

#### One partner from planning to build

We cover both the building itself and the IT inside it. That prevents gaps in the design and rework later, so the project can start sooner.

#### Know how in high density power and cooling

An AI data center is not a traditional one. We plan for very high power supply and for advanced cooling such as liquid cooling from the start.

#### Flexible scope

We can work with you on planning alone, or take the project all the way through construction and the GPU build. It depends on what you need.











### Who We Work With

![Business meeting about an AI data center project](https://www.upgrade.co.jp/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/ph_ai-datacenter01.jpg)

- Companies that are considering entering the AI data center business
- Operators that want to upgrade an existing data center for AI, with high density racks and liquid cooling
- AI developers and research institutes that need their own compute platform, on premises or in a dedicated data center
- Local governments and infrastructure companies that want to use their land and power for a data center
