Cordiant Digital Infrastructure, the FTSE 250 digital infrastructure investor and operator, said its US data centre Hudson Interxchange has signed a major new customer contract and won an expansion order from an existing client.
The new five-year, inflation-linked contract is with a specialist provider of high-density GPU cloud computing infrastructure for AI workloads.
It covers 1.8MW of capacity at Hudson's facility at 60 Hudson Street in New York, with the customer holding a right of first refusal over a further 2MW.
Billing starts in September on an initial 450kW deployment, with the remaining 1.35MW delivered by the end of the year, prompting Hudson to begin construction of the final two data halls on the sixth floor.
The floor carries 5MW of utility power, of which 3.5MW is saleable IT load capacity.
Before these deals, only about 0.9MW was contracted, including the first data hall, which sold out in 2025.
The new contract and expansion order lift total contracted capacity on the floor to roughly 2.8MW, roughly 80% of saleable capacity, leaving premium space for further demand.
Atul Roy, Hudson's interim chief executive and head of telecoms strategy at Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Management, called it "an important milestone" that "validates our strategy of investing in high-density capacity at 60 Hudson Street, the most interconnected commercial building in New York."
Full deployment is expected by December.
