A data center rack allocation system allocates rack computer systems to be installed at particular rack positions based at least in part upon correlating infrastructure support requirements of the rack computer systems with infrastructure support capacities associated with the rack position. Such allocation can enable rapid incremental deployment of infrastructure and rack computer systems in a data center with flexibility to allocate various types of rack computer systems, with various support requirements, to available infrastructure. The system can identify infrastructure connections available to provide certain types of support capacity and can associate such connections with various rack positions in data centers. The system can determine the support requirements of a rack computer system in response to a determination that the rack computer system is presently inbound for delivery to a data center. The system can allocate particular infrastructure connections to a rack computer system allocated to a rack position.
