DCX Data Centers

DCX Data Centers is a Goodyear, Arizona hyper-density colocation provider serving AI, HPC, machine learning, edge computing, satellite infrastructure, and mission-critical workloads. DCX operates a move-in-ready cloud colocation campus in the U.S. West and is planning additional data centers in the Central and Eastern United States. Its “lights-out” model combines managed compute, storage, network infrastructure, and tailored support for customers that need dedicated data center capacity without operating their own facility.

DCX’s colocation portfolio centers on modular high-density data suites, dedicated critical infrastructure, carrier-neutral network access, expert data center support, and cloud colocation services optimized for AI/ML, HPC, and mission-critical applications. Each data suite provides dedicated independent critical systems, 720 kW at 2N, up to 30 kW per rack, two 720 kW dedicated UPS systems, diesel emergency generation, Starline busway, APC rack power distribution, and up to 44 four-post racks per suite.

DCX-GYR1 is a six-acre Goodyear campus near Microsoft West US 3, with two data suites online and one available. The facility is designed for zero water utilization, concurrent maintainability, 2N power, multiple points of entry, carrier-neutral connectivity, Cox and Lumen on site, and a DCX-operated optical transport network to 120 East Van Buren. DCX also participates in Project ARCO with Idaho National Laboratory and Arizona State University to advance nuclear-powered AI-native data center designs.
