Conapto proudly announces that it has become the first data center provider in Europe to achieve the prestigious OCP Ready for Hyperscale certification. This recognition marks a significant milestone for the company and solidifies its position as a leader in sustainable and innovative data center colocation designed to meet the evolving demands of hyperscale operators.

Conapto, a proud OCP Community member, is recognized for its pioneering approach to innovation, operational efficiency, scalability, and unwavering commitment to sustainability.

The certification, granted by the Open Compute Project Foundation (OCP), acknowledges the Stockholm 4 South data center for meeting or exceeding the rigorous standards outlined in the OCP Ready V2 for Hyperscale assessment, representing an optimal design for hyperscale deployments.

This comprehensive process evaluates seven functional areas such as Site access, IT Technical space, Telecommunications, Service, Efficiency, Openness, and Certifications to ensure alignment with the demanding requirements of hyperscale workloads, including artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications.

"We are thrilled to be the first data center provider in Europe to achieve OCP Ready for Hyperscale certification," says Håkan Björklund, CEO of Conapto.

"By aligning with the highest standards of the OCP ready program, we enable hyperscale operators to seamlessly deploy capacity in Stockholm, meeting their specific performance and stability requirements. It reflects our ongoing investment in operational excellence and sustainability, ensuring our customers can scale with confidence in a rapidly evolving market."

As a certified OCP Ready for Hyperscale provider, Conapto's Stockholm 4 South data center is uniquely positioned to support high-density liquid-cooled workloads. This certification simplifies the data center selection process for hyperscale companies by providing a verified assurance that Conapto's data center meets the highest standards for compatibility and readiness.

The OCP Ready for Hyperscale program was developed by the OCP Data Center Facilities project, leveraging the collective expertise of the hyperscale community to establish standardized best practices for colocation providers, helping hyperscalers identify data centers capable of accommodating their unique deployment needs.

By achieving this certification, Conapto not only demonstrates its commitment to innovation but also strengthens its role as a strategic partner for hyperscalers seeking efficient, secure, and sustainable data center colocation in Europe.

"We are excited to have Conapto as a new OCP member in Sweden and the first data center in Europe to gain the OCP Ready for Hyperscale certification. By following a community-driven checklist and successfully completing the approval process, Conapto has proven its ability to support hyperscale wholesale deployments across a diverse set of criteria.

The team at Conapto understands how openness can impact their business, and it shows their willingness to lead in this area," says Mark Dansie, OCP Ready Project Lead for the OCP.

Conapto's certified data center, Stockholm 4 South, is now listed on the OCP Marketplace, further enhancing its visibility and accessibility to hyperscale operators.
