Over the past five years, hyperscale computing has undergone a tremendous transformation that has firmly validated its position as the backbone of our digital world. In this second eBook in the Hyperscale Rising series, we provide readers with an in-depth look at the massive growth and evolution of the hyperscale industry during this relatively short but hugely impactful timeframe.

This white paper from QiO Technologies delves into the challenges and solutions for improving energy efficiency at server CPU level in data centers. Here’s a brief overview of what readers will learn: This white paper is essential for data center operators, IT

Hyperscale computing powers our on-demand world, yet few truly grasp the enormity of it. This guide introduces the concept and significance of hyperscale data centers. In this first eBook, of the Hyperscale Rising series, we are going to unpack everything from the definition of hyperscale to how it enables so many households’ digital brands to operate at the scale they do. We will also be exploring the past, present and potential future of some of the data center giants.

With the right colocation partner, your IT environment can be an engine for revenue growth, giving you a competitive edge. Picking the right colocation provider is a strategic decision. Here’s what you gain by working with the right colocation partner.

n a time when digitisation is rapidly transforming industries, data centres are evolving to meet the increasing demands for security, speed, and capacity. With this comes expansion, relocation, higher server and router port densities and variable panels – which means the need for flexible identification solutions has never been more important.

The power generation industry is undergoing a dramatic change as renewable sources, distributed generation, decarbonization and demand increases are transforming traditional sources of energy. Data centers and other types of critical infrastructure have a key role to play in this shifting energy landscape and are the ideal candidate to implement grid balancing services.

Data is our most valuable asset. It keeps our businesses running and informs our future — and has become more operationally critical in the wake of the pandemic. It deserves robust protection that ensures it’s not an attractive target for malicious actors.  

The best firewall is no defence against someone physically gaining access to a server rack. Physical security, powered by next-gen video solutions, is needed for comprehensive data protection.

It’s hard to imagine that one solution could help reduce energy spend and carbon footprint at the same time, but microgrid technology has had an impact on both as well as enhancing uptime, reducing emissions, and stabilizing energy pricing. Keeping a power source local has many benefits. It’s a game changer that’s hard to ignore in today’s competitive and climate-conscious world. They consume renewable energy and assists Data centres with meeting their greenhouse gas emissions targets.

Energy costs can account for more than 50% of the total operating expenses of a data centre, so it’s no surprise that data centre operators, manufacturers, and suppliers are looking for ways to reduce energy bills. One solution is to continuously improve energy efficiency through the use of cost-effective infrastructure and equipment. HARTING’s Han-Eco® connectors can reduce the electricity consumption for connection technology by up to 50% compared to standard CEE interfaces by using low-impedance contacts. This reduces the power lost in connections and significantly improves the Power Usage Efficiency (PUE) of data centres.

Batteries are an integral part of any data centre UPS installation. Indeed, without a well-maintained battery system that performs when you need it, the UPS itself is practically worthless. This whitepaper offers you a comprehensive overview of UPS batteries, from the different types and how they’re manufactured, through to the factors that affect cell lifespan. You’ll also learn about the most common conditions and get some top tips about maintenance and monitoring.

The data center industry reportedly accounts for one percent of the global electricity consumption, a result of the accelerated digitalization and emergence of new technologies. To address this, data center operators have begun to implement various measures to make their operations more energy-efficient and reduce impact of their facilities to the environment and to society.
