New: Missouri is quickly becoming a focal point for hyperscale data center development as operators like Amazon and Google look beyond traditional markets constrained by power and space.

With a combined $25 billion in recent investments, Montgomery County, located in the east-central part of the state, is emerging as a key player in the industry’s ongoing search for scalable energy solutions and favorable economics.

Analysts suggest this trend reflects a broader shift in hyperscaler strategies, with Missouri poised to join the ranks of major data center hubs.

HPE CEO Antonio Neri positioned networking as the foundation of the AI era during his keynote on Tuesday, unveiling Juniper-powered AI networking updates, expanded private AI solutions, and a broader vision he called the “agentic enterprise.”

This marks HPE’s first Discover event following its $14 billion acquisition of Juniper Networks.

Nearly every major announcement – from AI fabrics and data center interconnects to GreenLake automation and “self-driving” network operations – tied back to a central theme: networking is becoming the control plane for AI infrastructure, the company said.

The concept of data centers in space is no longer confined to science fiction. With SpaceX, Blue Origin, and others entering the race, the idea of leveraging space for computing infrastructure is gaining traction.

Yet, while the potential benefits – such as unlimited solar energy and bypassing Earth’s grid constraints – are enticing, the challenges of cost, technology, and operational feasibility suggest a long road ahead.

Data Centers’ Next Hurdle: Winning Public Trust and Social License

In recent years, the data center industry’s most pressing constraints were tangible: power, land, transmission, and supply chains. Community sentiment is now emerging as an equally decisive factor.

A coalition of telecom, automotive, medical device, and retail groups is warning the Trump administration that surging AI data center demand is driving sharp increases in memory prices and constraining supply across key industries.

In a recent letter to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, the organizations argued that expanding AI data centers are consuming a growing share of memory production capacity, leaving less supply available for communications networks, automobiles, medical equipment, consumer electronics, and other products.

With fabs “fully allocated,” the question is where the capacity is going – and what it means for non‑AI buyers.

Industry groups warn AI data center demand is reshaping memory markets, raising costs and creating supply-chain risks beyond tech.
