Company snapshot — Digital Realty Trust Inc

DLR in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelook stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Digital Realty owns and runs data centres, colocation space and interconnection points that let other companies house and link their servers. It does not run cloud services itself; it rents out physical space, power and network access across many countries. The company is based in Austin, Texas, and lists its facilities as a global platform under one brand.
Where it sits in the stack
Digital Realty carries no seat in our Rubin index for AI infrastructure, so it sits instead in the specialty-REIT sleeve of our universe, grouped with data-centre landlords rather than chipmakers or cloud operators. It is a landlord to the AI build-out: cloud firms and GPU renters lease its space and power rather than build their own.
Who it is priced against
The diary's peer group for it is neoclouds and GPU renters — CoreWeave, Nebius, IREN, Oracle and Applied Digital — priced against it because they are tenants or rivals for the same compute capacity; the market also compares it with fellow data-centre REIT Equinix.
Why Closelook tracks it
Digital Realty holds a seat in the S&P 500 but none in our Rubin or Halo indices, and it carries no Closelook score yet. It has not appeared in the diary's editions or quotes so far.
What the diary watches
Whether AI tenants keep signing new leases for power-dense space, and whether rate pressure or power scarcity changes how much capacity Digital Realty can offer against the neocloud tenants it competes with for land and electricity.
