A significant data centre collaboration in Australia has concluded with CDC Data Centres and Firmus Technologies mutually agreeing to end their partnership. CDC, majority-owned by New Zealand’s Infratil (49.7%), and AI infrastructure firm Firmus have dissolved their agreement, the details of which remain largely undisclosed. The reasons for the termination of the partnership are not immediately clear, but reports indicate a mutual decision was reached. This development impacts the Australian data centre landscape, potentially altering plans for expansion or new projects. Both CDC and Firmus are expected to pursue independent strategies going forward. The end of the partnership signifies a shift in the data centre market within Australia. Further details on the financial implications are anticipated.
