Data Center Capacity Moves Before It Goes Public
Capacity, power and site decisions are made months before a tender exists. The evidence is scattered across permits, power deals, filings and construction sites. Directories list what's already built. Industry reports stop at the headline numbers. Neither tells you where to build next or who to call.
- Scattered SignalsPermits, power agreements, M&A and construction milestones live in a hundred different places.
- Static ViewsAn annual report can't keep up with an industry that changes every week.
- No Line to ActionA headline number doesn't tell you which site, which project or which person.
How DCI Turns Market Activity Into Your Next Move
Every record in DCI answers three questions: what's changing, how credible is it, and what deserves action now.
- 01Detect ChangeDCI surfaces capacity announcements, permits, power deals, construction milestones, M&A and early development evidence, often before a formal announcement.
- 02Connect ContextEach development is tied to the facility, project, operator and city it affects.
- 03Interpret ImpactChanges are read against asset history, capacity, project maturity and market context, so you see why they matter.
- 04Prioritize ActionMove straight into a site shortlist, watchlist or account view without restarting the research.
Rank the Best Build Sites in Any Market, and See Exactly Why
Drop a pin, set a radius of up to 25 km and choose your capacity band. DCI screens candidates across five dimensions and 38 data layers, then returns up to ten ranked sites. Each comes with a Go, Conditional or No-go verdict and the evidence behind it.
- Presets for AI-ready/HPC, ESG/Net-Zero or your own emphasis.
- Screen ten markets in an afternoon, before you commission the site study.
- Walk into your advisor's office with a shortlist, not a blank map.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
01
What is Data Center Intelligence (DCI)?
DCI is a data center database and decision-support platform from Mordor Intelligence. It links facility, project, operator, location and signal data, and adds site feasibility, project tracking and an AI research assistant. You can move from a question to the assets and evidence behind it.02
Who uses DCI?
Data center operators and developers, equipment vendors and service providers, EPC and MEP firms, hyperscalers and cloud teams, investors and REITs, semiconductor and AI hardware vendors, utilities, consultants and strategy teams, and finance, government and enterprise infrastructure teams.03
How is DCI different from a data center directory?
A directory is an asset list. DCI uses asset records as the base for operator analysis, project-stage tracking, location intelligence, site feasibility, signal monitoring and account prioritization, so you can act on what you find.04
How is DCI different from an industry research report?
An industry report sizes and forecasts the sector. DCI tells you which facilities and projects exist, what stage they're in, which operators are changing position and what that means for your site, account or investment decision. Mordor Intelligence market reports remain separate products.05
How current is the data?
Records update as source evidence changes, and material project and signal updates refresh fastest. Every figure on this page shows the date of the latest database refresh, and records are reviewed by Mordor analysts.06
Does DCI identify projects before formal announcement?
Yes. DCI can open a project record at the Planned stage, from early evidence, before a formal announcement, when that evidence is strong enough to support one. That's where account planning still has room to move.07
Does DCI include decision-makers?
Yes. Operator and account views carry verified decision-makers, so an account resolves into named people alongside the projects that make it relevant.08
How does Site Feasibility score a location?
It screens candidate sites across five dimensions and 38 data layers: power proximity, network and connectivity, land and buildability, water, climate and resilience, and development and market context. You get up to ten ranked sites, each with a verdict and its evidence.09
Can a company pay to rank higher in DCI?
No. Rankings are calculated from facility records, not surveys or sponsorship.10
Can teams save, watch and export data?
Yes. Saved views, watchlists and exports are part of the everyday workflow. Account and project pipelines are coming soon.11
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Start with a 30-minute walkthrough tailored to your market, then trial DCI with your team.
