Status: Under Construction | Location: Huechuraba District & Metropolitan Region, Santiago, Chile
The AWS South America Chile Region in Santiago serves as a major cloud availability and artificial intelligence computing hub for Amazon Web Services across Chile, the Southern Cone, and broader Latin American markets. Representing a long-term investment in the country’s digital infrastructure ecosystem, the three-Availability-Zone region is designed to provide resilient cloud computing, advanced machine learning, generative AI, data analytics, and enterprise workloads with low-latency regional access. The campus is described as providing 150 megawatts of gross utility capacity and 120 megawatts of critical IT capacity, supporting high-density computing environments and next-generation AI infrastructure. Electrical systems are supplied through high-voltage grid connections coordinated with local transmission utilities and reinforced by modular static uninterruptible power supply systems configured in 2N redundant architectures. Standby diesel generation provides additional resilience during grid interruptions and supports continuous operation of critical computing infrastructure. To manage the substantial thermal loads generated by high-density graphics processing units and high-performance computing clusters, the facility combines high-efficiency air-cooled chiller systems with direct-to-chip liquid cooling technologies. Advanced water-management and conservation systems are incorporated into the cooling architecture to improve resource efficiency and reduce environmental impact. Strategically located in Santiago, the AWS region also benefits from Chile’s growing telecommunications infrastructure and its position as an important digital gateway between Latin America and international markets. The campus is described as incorporating subterranean fiber infrastructure supporting low-latency connectivity to Amazon CloudFront edge locations, domestic telecommunications networks, regional cloud exchanges, and international subsea fiber systems. Through its combination of resilient power infrastructure, multiple availability zones, advanced cooling, high-density computing capabilities, and strategic connectivity, the AWS South America Chile Region represents an important component of Amazon Web Services’ expanding cloud and AI infrastructure across Latin America.
