Data Centre Cooling news stories

Australian businesses in particular are relying more heavily on data, with local and global providers deploying and building centres across the country at rapid speeds.

New Zealand's most interconnected data centre is located right in the heart of Queen Street, and you would likely have benefited from its vast array of services either directly or indirectly.

The first of its kind technology named "The Vortex Vacuum Chamber" is believed by independent verifiers to be the most efficient data centre cooling system ever designed.

Vertiv has launched a new line of efficient thermal management solutions for high-density IT applications across Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

The film industry relies on fast-in, fast-out IT infrastructure to support projects with a short project lifecycle and thousands of technical production demands.

Condair’s ME Series Evaporative Cooler and DL Series Hybrid Humidifier are transforming data centers around the globe.

More than three million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions could be avoided if data center operators and providers made the effort to cut their data center cooling consumption by 30%.

The Omdia paper, Data Centre Thermal Management Report 2020, published in late 2020 and based on 2018 and 2019 data, states that Vertiv has a 23.5% share of the global data centre cooling market.

A freezing winter ahead could pose major setbacks for data center construction projects already delayed by COVID-19 this year.

The data centre, which has a stage one investment of AU$85 million, will generate 43 megawatts of power to support Australian businesses, including the Federal Government.

The company now operates five data centers in China, with at least 10 more planned in the coming years.

“Climate management is one of the key challenges faced by operators of large, colocation and hyperscale data centres. A failure to understand the consequences of heat generation and deal with it properly can be disastrous."

Investing in variable frequency drives (VFDs) and energy efficient motors in cooling systems can make a massive contribution to keeping energy consumption under control.

Data center management solutions enable facilities and IT professionals to intelligently reduce energy consumption

Data centre operators must not overlook the importance of protecting data centre equipment and preventing downtime in the most critical periods.

“Simply put, our new vendor-neutral, rack mounted cooling solution is right-sized for edge micro data centres and provides the right answer for cooling today's critical edge technology."

The European data centre market is ‘overheated’ and under more pressure than ever, which is why more providers are considering the Nordic region as a place to set up shop.

The ICERaQ Micro is a self-contained 24U server rack that can support up to 50kW of critical IT load for industries including edge data centers, smart cities, and IoT applications.

Pod frame architectures and liquid cooling can greatly improve the efficiency of hybrid IT applications.

Some operators struggle to manage the heat profile introduced by new servers in the data center, so Schneider Electric developed the solution to allow fewer units to provide the same amount of cooling capacity.

"Modular data centers have also been adopted by various governments for storing the data as a backup to deal with expected disasters and emergencies."

At present, a Google data center uses 50% less energy than a typical data center, and it also delivers seven times more computing power than it would have done five years ago.

Aruba's Alessandro Bruschini discusses why to carry on growing, the data centre industry will have to turn to green methods of energy consumption and production.

Park Place Technologies’ CEO shares his views on innovations aside from renewable energy that can slim a data centre’s footprint.
