Lumen Technologies (NYSE: LUMN) has partnered with Prometheus Hyperscale to provide network connectivity for sustainable AI-driven data centers. Prometheus will implement Lumen's Private Connectivity Fabric solution, including next-generation wavelength services and DDoS-protected Dedicated Internet Access.

The partnership will support Prometheus' flagship facility in Wyoming and four future data centers across the western U.S. The network infrastructure will enable high-density compute capabilities while maintaining commitment to renewable energy and carbon neutrality. Prometheus' Evanston, Wyoming campus, expected online in late 2026, will be among the world's largest data centers, with additional facilities planned in Colorado, Arizona.

Lumen Technologies (NYSE: LUMN) ha stretto una collaborazione con Prometheus Hyperscale per fornire connettività di rete per data center sostenibili guidati dall'AI. Prometheus implementerà la soluzione di Private Connectivity Fabric di Lumen, inclusi servizi a lunghezza d'onda di nuova generazione e accesso a Internet dedicato protetto da DDoS.

La partnership sosterrà la struttura principale di Prometheus in Wyoming e quattro futuri data center nella regione occidentale degli Stati Uniti. L'infrastruttura di rete abiliterà capacità di elaborazione ad alta densità, mantenendo l'impegno verso l'energia rinnovabile e la neutralità carbonica. Il campus di Evanston, Wyoming, previsto per essere attivo entro la fine del 2026, sarà uno dei più grandi data center al mondo, con ulteriori strutture pianificate in Colorado e Arizona.

Positive
  • Strategic expansion into AI infrastructure market through partnership with sustainable data center provider
  • Secured multi-facility contract covering current and future data centers
  • Diversification of revenue streams through comprehensive network services package
Negative
  • Long deployment timeline with main facility not operational until late 2026
  • Significant capital investment required for new network routes and infrastructure

Insights

This partnership marks a strategic move in the data center and AI infrastructure space, but falls short of immediate material impact. While Lumen's Private Connectivity Fabric will support Prometheus Hyperscale's ambitious expansion plans, the first major facility won't be operational until late 2026. The deal enhances Lumen's position in the growing AI infrastructure market, providing dedicated internet access and DDoS protection services across multiple planned facilities. However, no financial terms were disclosed and the long-term timeline for facility completion suggests minimal near-term revenue impact. The partnership primarily demonstrates Lumen's capability to support next-generation data centers but lacks concrete financial metrics or immediate business impact to move the needle for $6.4B market cap Lumen.

Lumen® Private Connectivity Fabric℠ will expand Prometheus' network capacity across its growing data center footprint

DENVER, Dec. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Prometheus Hyperscale has chosen Lumen Technologies (NYSE: LUMN) to connect its energy-efficient data centers to meet growing AI data demands. Lumen network services will help Prometheus with the rapid growth in AI, big data, and cloud computing as they address the critical environmental challenges faced by the AI industry.

Prometheus Hyperscale, known for pioneering sustainability in the hyperscale data center industry, is deploying a Lumen Private Connectivity Fabric℠ solution, including new network routes built with Lumen next generation wavelength services and Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) services with Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection on top. This expanded network will enable high-density compute in Prometheus facilities to deliver scalable and efficient data center solutions while maintaining their commitment to renewable energy and carbon neutrality. Lumen networking technology will provide the low-latency, high-performance infrastructure critical to meet the demands of AI workloads, from training to inference, across Prometheus' flagship facility in Wyoming and four future data centers in the western U.S.
