1. A computing facility, comprising: a rail structure;a moveable interior wall coupled to the rail structure; anda moveable exterior wall located at a same end of the computing facility as the moveable interior wall,wherein the moveable exterior wall is positioned between an outdoor environment and the moveable interior wall, andwherein the rail structure, the moveable interior wall, and the moveable exterior wall are configured such that to expand a computing room of the computing facility the moveable interior wall is configured to translate toward the moveable exterior wall at the same end of the computing facility and away from another wall of the computing facility at an opposite end of the computing facility such that a distance between the moveable exterior wall and the moveable interior wall is reduced and a distance between the moveable interior wall and the other wall is increased. 2. The computing facility of claim 1, wherein the rail structure comprises a floor rail and an elevated rail. 3. The computing facility of claim 1 further comprising: an additional rail structure, wherein the moveable exterior wall is coupled to the additional rail structure. 4. The computing facility of claim 3, further comprising an expandable exterior shell, wherein the additional rail structure provides structural support for the expandable exterior shell. 5. The computing facility of claim 1, wherein the moveable exterior wall is coupled to the same rail structure to which the moveable interior wall is coupled. 6. The computing facility of claim 1, further comprising: modular panels coupled to the rail structure to enclose the computing room of the computing facility. 7. The computing facility of claim 6, further comprising: a data center infrastructure module coupled to one of the modular panels, wherein the data center infrastructure module comprises infrastructure resources for compute resources in the computing room. 8. The computing facility of claim 1, further comprising: a raw space between the moveable interior wall and the moveable exterior wall, wherein the raw space comprises a partially completed expansion zone. 9. A method of providing a computing room, comprising: providing a rail structure in a computing facility, wherein the rail structure comprises a floor rail extending along a length of the computing facility and an elevated rail extending along the length of the computing facility;coupling a moveable interior wall to the rail structure, wherein the moveable interior wall is configured to move along the rail structure; andcoupling modular side panels and ceiling panels to the floor rail and the elevated rail to enclose the computing room within the computing facility. 10. The method of claim 9, further comprising: coupling a moveable exterior wall to the rail structure, wherein the moveable exterior wall is positioned between an outdoor environment and the moveable interior wall. 11. The method of claim 9, further comprising: providing an additional rail structure at the computing facility; andcoupling a moveable exterior wall to the additional rail structure, wherein the moveable exterior wall is positioned between an outdoor environment and the moveable interior wall. 12. The method of claim 11, further comprising: coupling an expandable exterior shell to the additional rail structure,wherein the computing room is located within the expandable exterior shell. 13. The method of claim 9, further comprising: coupling a data center infrastructure module to one of the modular side panels or one of the modular ceiling panels, wherein the data center infrastructure module comprises infrastructure resources for compute resources in the computing room. 14. A method of expanding a computing room, comprising: translating a moveable exterior wall from a first exterior wall position to an expanded exterior wall positon;translating a moveable interior wall coupled to a rail structure from a first position to an expanded position such that a distance between the moveable interior wall and rack computing systems in the computing room is increased; andcoupling modular panels to the rail structure between the first position and the expanded position to enclose an expanded portion added to the computing room. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein a space between the first exterior wall positon and the expanded exterior wall position is a raw space, wherein the method further comprises: prior to translating the moveable interior wall, converting the raw space into a computing space. 16. The method of claim 14, wherein said coupling modular panels to the rail structure is performed prior to translating the moveable interior wall. 17. The method of claim 14, further comprising: mounting additional rack computing systems in the expanded portion of the computing room. 18. The method of claim 14, further comprising: coupling an additional section of rail structure to the rail structure; andfurther translating the moveable interior wall on to the additional section of rail structure. 19. The method of claim 14, further comprising: prior to translating the moveable interior wall, coupling an additional section of rail structure to a rail structure that supports a moveable exterior wall of a computing facility comprising the computing room;translating the moveable exterior wall on to the additional section of rail structure that supports the moveable exterior wall; andsubsequently, performing said translating the moveable interior wall.
