AXG and Digital Realty Partner to Enable GSIs & MSPs to Deliver Hosted Private Infrastructure as a Service in More Than 30 Countries

The joint offering enables global system integrators and managed service providers to deliver dedicated private AI, private cloud, and edge infrastructure through Digital Realty's global data center platform, PlatformDigital®, and AXG's multi-technology infrastructure-as-a-service model.

MIAMI, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AXG, the global enterprise private infrastructure platform, and Digital Realty (NYSE: DLR), the world's largest cloud- and carrier-neutral data center provider, today announced a partnership designed to help global system integrators (GSIs) and managed service providers (MSPs) deliver fully hosted, lifecycle-managed private infrastructure as a service across more than 30 countries.

Engagements are delivered together with GSIs and MSPs, which retain ownership of the customer relationship, solution design, managed services, orchestration, and application layer. AXG and Digital Realty provide the underlying hosting, commercial, and operational infrastructure required to deliver those solutions globally under a simplified as-a-service model.

The partnership brings together two complementary platforms. Digital Realty provides ServiceFabric®, Digital Realty's interconnection solution and orchestration platform, including data center space, power, cooling, connectivity, interconnection, and sovereign-ready colocation. AXG delivers and lifecycle-manages the infrastructure deployed within it, including the customer's technology stack of choice across hardware, software, and supporting services.

The result is dedicated infrastructure with the commercial simplicity of cloud: one harmonized agreement, one predictable monthly recurring charge, and no upfront infrastructure capital requirement. This allows GSIs and MSPs to expand their managed services scope and deliver a consistent solution across multiple technologies and geographies without building the underlying asset ownership, financing, procurement, contracting, and lifecycle-delivery capabilities themselves.

The joint offering supports four areas of enterprise and government demand:

• Private AI. Hosted AI infrastructure for training and inference workloads.
• Edge as a Service. Distributed compute, networking, and AI infrastructure across dozens of locations worldwide.
• Cloud repatriation. Dedicated, cost-controlled private infrastructure for workloads moving from public cloud.
• Neo-cloud capacity. Hosted infrastructure for AI service providers and GPU-as-a-Service operators.

The joint offering is available today across 31 markets spanning NA, EMEA, APAC, and LATAM.

"By combining Digital Realty's global, connected, and AI-ready infrastructure platform with AXG's flexible as-a-service model, we are creating a powerful new route to market. Together, we can help enterprises deploy and scale mission-critical infrastructure faster, with greater flexibility and alignment to their business priorities."

— Jules Johnston, Senior Vice President, Channels & Alliances, Digital Realty

"Enterprises and governments are becoming far more deliberate about where each workload runs. AI is a big part of that: for workloads with high utilization, dedicated infrastructure can offer more attractive economics, and they are placing greater importance on data residency, architectural choice, and deploying inference closer to where data is generated. But they still expect the simplicity and flexibility they learned from cloud."

"That is the gap we're closing with Digital Realty. We're excited to partner alongside them to bring a simple, globally scalable hosted private infrastructure-as-a-service offering to market across more than 30 countries."

— Bo White, CEO, AXG
