Macquarie Data Centres to host Dell AI Factory within its AI and cloud data centres

Macquarie Data Centres, part of Macquarie Technology Group, will host the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA within its AI and cloud data centres.

The Dell AI Factory  is a secure AI solution with a portfolio of products, solutions, and services tailored for AI workloads, from desktop to data center to cloud.

Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA infrastructure and software will be supported by Macquarie Data Centres’ newest purpose-built AI and cloud data centre, IC3 Super West, ready in mid-2026 with the entire end-state power secured.

The move aims to power enterprise AI, private AI and neo cloud projects while achieving the highest standards of data security within sovereign data centres.

Macquarie Data Centres said that the solution is especially significant for critical infrastructure providers and highly regulated sectors such as healthcare, finance, education and research which have strict regulatory compliance conditions relating to data storage and processing. This collaboration gives them the secure, compliant foundation needed to build, train and deploy advanced AI applications in Australia, such as AI digital twins, agentic AI and private LLMs.

The Australian Government has linked the data centre sector to its Future Made in Australia policy agenda. Data centres and AI also play an important role in the Australian Federal Government’s new push to improve Australia’s productivity.

“For Australia's AI-driven future to be secure, we must ensure that Australian data centres play a core role in AI, data, infrastructure, and operations” said Macquarie Data Centres CEO David Hirst.

“Our collaboration with Dell Technologies delivers just that, the perfect marriage of global tech and sovereign infrastructure.”

“Our work with Macquarie Data Centres helps bring the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA vision to life in Australia,” said Jamie Humphrey, GM for ANZ specialty platforms sales for Dell Technologies.

“Together, we are enabling organisations to develop and deploy AI as a transformative and competitive advantage in Australia in a way that is secure, sovereign and scalable.”
