# Northern Data Frankfurt-listed German data center and high-performance computing company. Operates an AI/HPC infrastructure footprint built around dense [[NVIDIA]] GPU deployments (H100 and H200 classes). In May 2026, Northern Data became the target of an exchange offer from [[Rumble]] in a business combination that closes mid-June and transforms Rumble from a video platform into an AI-cloud infrastructure operator — see [[Rumble-Northern Data Business Combination]]. ## Operations - Approximately 22,400 NVIDIA GPUs (H100 and H200) across the data center footprint - AI/HPC compute capacity sold to enterprise and research customers - European operating base, Frankfurt headquarters, Xetra-listed equity ## Significance Northern Data is the asset base that gives [[Rumble]] meaningful scale in AI infrastructure post-combination — a tier of GPU capacity that puts the combined entity in adjacency to the xAI Colossus and OpenAI Stargate compute ecosystem, though at a much smaller absolute scale. ## See Also - [[Rumble-Northern Data Business Combination]] - [[Rumble]] - [[NVIDIA]]
