This disclosure describes systems for arranging racks within a data center for a smaller and/or more flexible footprint, more efficient and/or resilient cooling, and/or easier installation. In some examples, this disclosure describes a data center rack system that includes an aisle and a plurality of rack stations adjacent to the aisle. The aisle includes an aisle guidance track defining an aisle axis. Each rack station of the plurality of rack stations includes a station guidance track defining a station axis. The station guidance track is configured to receive a rack from the aisle guidance track and position the rack in the respective rack station at a rack angle formed between the aisle axis and the station axis that is less than 90 degrees.
