In a decisive move addressing the surging AI compute demand, BlueSky AI (OTC: BSAI) has selected Data Specialties Inc. (“DSI”) as the official provider for its premanufactured modular data centers, a strategic step reinforcing the company’s mission to deliver scalable, energy-efficient AI infrastructure (ibn.fm/miXyp). BlueSky AI is a Utah–based company specializing in modular AI data center solutions designed to meet the evolving needs of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and high-performance computing.
According to the announcement, BlueSky AI will tap into DSI’s three decades of modular data center expertise to deploy its proprietary SkyMod series across the United States. These factory-built units include the SkyMod One (1 MW) and SkyMod XL (1.7 MW), engineered for rapid installation indoors or outdoors. DSI’s proven engineering, modular proficiency and end-to-end delivery capabilities are expected to align seamlessly with BlueSky AI’s timelines and performance requirements.
This collaboration allows BlueSky AI to “accelerate deployment of our SkyMod series … without compromising on quality, reliability or scalability,” said CEO Trent D’Ambrosio. The modular strategy is critical in a sector where computing demand far outpaces legacy data center buildout timelines. According to Grand View Research, the global data center market was valued at $347.6 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach $652 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual rate of 11.2%. North America alone holds more than 40% of this market and is expected to grow at 10.7% annually from 2025 to 2030. BlueSky’s SkyMod platform positions the company to capture a significant share of that growth by offering rapid, scalable compute solutions.
DSI, headquartered in Buena Park, California, brings specialized knowledge in mission-critical modular data facilities for enterprise, government and hyperscale clients. The company’s ability to pretest modules in the factory and ship them ready to operate on site enables speed-to-market advantages critical for AI firms racing to deploy new capacity. DSI president Phil Rafferty, commented on the partnership, stating that BlueSky’s demand for “scalable, high-performance data environments aligns perfectly aligns with our capabilities and commitment to excellence.”
The partnership supports BlueSky AI’s ambitious target of exceeding 100 MW of operational modular capacity within 24 months. To put that in perspective, a single gigawatt (1,000 MW) can power nearly 1 million homes, demonstrating the scale of infrastructure BlueSky aims to provide for compute-heavy business AI applications.
The strategic timing aligns with broader technology demands: AI model training, large language models (“LLMs”), inference analyzing new, unseen data and generating predictions or decisions, and scientific HPC workloads are straining traditional data center architectures. Rapid deployment of modular facilities can reduce site build times significantly compared to conventional construction, a difference that may determine competitive advantage. The company is also nimble building a network of AI Factory locations harnessing the latest technology as it’s developed. A recent Network World article “Technology is coming so fast data centers are obsolete by the time they launch” reinforces the BluSky AI strategy.
BlueSky AI is simultaneously making progress on other fronts. Early in July, the company secured its first site in central Utah with a long-term power assignment and ground lease covering 9.3 MW of grid capacity and 51.6 acres of land, essential for its flagship data center (ibn.fm/n22II). Beyond physical infrastructure, BlueSky AI has also announced that it upgraded to the OTC Markets’ OTCID designation, signaling higher compliance standards and furthering investor transparency. The company also appointed a tech industry veteran to its board, suggesting maturation in governance as the company scales (ibn.fm/rzoQY).
The modular data center market is expanding rapidly to meet urgent demands. Traditional data center builds, often requiring 18 to 24 months from groundbreaking to operation, are no longer agile enough for fast-moving AI sectors. Modular options such as SkyMod can be factory-built, shipped and fully deployed in months, cutting both time and cost in half. Their small footprint size of 1,700 to 2,500 square feet and 1 to 60 MW locations provide many options for continued growth. Energy efficiency also matters — SkyMod designs are optimized for renewable integration, including solar, wind and geothermal power where feasible.
