Oracle sent a force majeure notice to the developer, has removed one key development partner and faced local resistance in Project Jupiter, the massive New Mexico data-center project.

The notice and partner change point to cracks in Oracle’s AI data-center build-out as the company pushes ahead with the ambitious Project Jupiter project in New Mexico.

Local resistance adds another challenge to the massive development, which is central to Oracle’s plans to expand its AI infrastructure. The force majeure notice to the developer signals potential delays or disruptions at Project Jupiter in New Mexico.
