Murphy’s team, including Oracle and Equinix veterans Craig Pennington and Joe Walsh, has delivered over eight gigawatts of data center capacity and shaped infrastructure strategies for hyperscale clients. “Montera was born from a simple conviction: the digital future demands infrastructure that is faster, smarter, and built with intent. With a significant capital commitment from Stonepeak and a team of seasoned hyperscale experts, we are well-positioned to lead the next wave of development across North America,” said Murphy.
