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.
"What Prometheus Hyperscale is doing in the data center industry
is unique and innovative, and we want to innovate alongside of
them," said Ashley Haynes-Gaspar,
Lumen EVP and chief revenue officer. "We're proud to partner with
Prometheus Hyperscale in supporting the next generation of
sustainable AI infrastructure. Our Private Connectivity Fabric
solution was designed with scalability and security to drive AI
innovation while aligning with Prometheus' ambitious sustainability
goals."
Prometheus, founded as Wyoming Hyperscale in 2020, turned to
Lumen networking solutions prior to the launch of its first
development site in Aspen, WY.
This facility integrates renewable energy sources, sustainable
cooling systems, and AI-driven energy optimization, allowing for
minimal environmental impact while delivering the computational
power AI-driven enterprises demand. The partnership with Lumen
reinforces Prometheus' dedication to both technological innovation
and environmental responsibility.
"AI is reshaping industries, but it must be done responsibly,"
said Trevor Neilson, president of Prometheus Hyperscale. "By
joining forces with Lumen, we're able to offer our customers
best-in-class connectivity to AI workloads while staying true to
our mission of building the most sustainable data centers on the
planet. Lumen's network expertise is the perfect complement to our
vision."
Prometheus' data center campus in Evanston, Wyoming will be one of the biggest
data centers in the world with facilities expected to come online
in late 2026. Future data centers in Pueblo, Colorado; Fort Morgan, Colorado; Phoenix, Arizona; and Tucson, Arizona, will follow and be
strategically designed to leverage clean energy resources and
innovative technology.
