AI infrastructure isn’t just scaling—it’s spreading globally at an unprecedented pace. In this episode of the Moor Insights & Strategy DataCenter Podcast, analysts Matt Kimball and Paul Smith-Goodson break down what’s happening beyond U.S. borders, why emerging regions may become AI powerhouses, and how enterprise platforms like Nutanix are repositioning for the AI era.
From billion-dollar data center investments in Morocco and India to the evolving role of U.S. states like Mississippi, this conversation explores how AI infrastructure is reshaping economic opportunity worldwide.
On the enterprise side, Nutanix signals a major shift — from hyperconverged infrastructure to a full-stack AI platform focused on real-world deployment, governance, and operational simplicity.
And looming over it all: quantum computing risks that could accelerate faster than expected.
