Equinix ML8

Equinix ML8 is a state-of-the-art hyperscale data center located in Settimo Milanese, Milan, Italy, adjacent to Equinix ML7x. Both facilities are part of Equinix's significant expansion on a hyperscale campus, specifically designed to support demanding workloads such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), hybrid multicloud environments, and edge computing.

Developed in tandem with ML7x, ML8 is architected to handle high-density compute requirements. It shares a total campus IT capacity of 45MW with ML7x and is expected to individually deliver at least 20MW of IT power. The dual independent facilities occupy a combined 19,400 m² of Gross Internal Area. ML8 features advanced, next-generation cooling systems tailored for AI factories and managed private cloud infrastructures. It offers direct connectivity to the main campus ecosystem, providing sub-millisecond network latency to access Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure express routes.
