Super Micro Computer is building a third campus set to be 3 million square feet in California's Silicon Valley.
The San Jose, Calif., company, which makes artificial intelligence servers, said Friday the first building on the campus is planned to be more than 300,000 square feet.
The campus is intended to accelerate its production of liquid-cooled services for data centers.
The new development is expected to generate hundreds of new jobs and has the support of San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan, Super Micro said. Construction is set to begin in later this year.

Super Micro Computer is building a third campus set to be 3 million square feet in California's Silicon Valley.
The San Jose, Calif., company, which is known for its artificial intelligence servers, said Friday the first building on the campus is planned to be more than 300,000 square feet.
The campus is intended to accelerate its production of liquid-cooled services for data centers.
The new development is expected to generate hundreds of new jobs and has the support of San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan, Super Micro said. Construction is set to begin later this year.
Super Micro has grown as a go-to supplier for AI companies like Elon Musk's xAI, and has a close relationship with chip-maker Nvidia.
The company's liquid cooling absorbs heat in servers to allow for higher power density and closer component packing within servers. This is crucial as companies look to speed up their use of AI, which relies on servers.
While Super Micro has made a name for itself by making AI servers, its server add-ons are an area of opportunity. Earlier this month Super Micro said it reached full production availability for its building block portfolio, a group of server accessories including liquid cooling. That portfolio has helped differentiate Super Micro from competitors who offer a more limited menu of products.
Super Micro narrowly avoided Nasdaq delisting this week when it filed its 10-K annual report just before the deadline. The company was running behind schedule after its accounting firm, Ernst & Young, resigned over concerns about the level of transparency and governance in its financial reporting.
