About COLD AISLE: Data Center Tycoon
Build a resilient data center company from an empty facility.
COLD AISLE: Data Center Tycoon is a first-person management simulation where every number has a visible cause. Order hardware, receive deliveries, move racks into position, install servers and GPUs, and connect power and networking yourself. Then turn the machinery into a profitable business.
BUILD THE FACILITY
Buy racks, servers, GPUs, switches, power distribution, cooling, and logistics equipment. Place infrastructure freely, fill racks, route connections, and expand capacity without creating new bottlenecks.
OPERATE REAL SYSTEMS
Compute, storage, power, network, and temperature are connected. Circuits can overload, infrastructure condition deteriorates, cooling consumes electricity, and incidents can violate SLAs. Plan reserves, test redundancy, maintain equipment, and react before customers lose confidence.
WIN AND KEEP CUSTOMERS
Negotiate price, duration, capacity, peak load, service level, and penalties. Schedule contract starts, run several jobs in parallel, handle follow-up offers, and earn detailed ratings based on measured reliability, performance, response time, value, and service.
GROW A COMPANY
Hire staff, develop specializations, delegate work, pay weekly expenses and invoices, and compete against 32 rival companies. When a competitor becomes insolvent, you can buy unknown lots of hardware from its liquidation.
CREATE YOUR OWN AI PRODUCTS
Use spare infrastructure for simulated AI products. Choose research goals, reserve computing power, set prices, build reputation, and balance this second market against the needs of your hosting customers.
FROM EMPTY HALL TO MARKET LEADER
Progress through company phases, unlock milestones, survive incidents, and build a business capable of challenging the largest companies in the market.
Single-player. No microtransactions. Liquidation purchases use in-game currency only.
