A systems approach; connecting the power train to the value chain from grid to chip
A data centre today looks very different to one just five years ago. And it’s all thanks to the effects of increasing demand on their evolving and expanding capacity, alongside regulatory drivers designed to deliver greater sustainability and efficiency. So, we find ourselves asking the big question of ‘Is the current way of designing, implementing, operating and retirement (DIOR) of data centres going to meet the needs of operators and alleviate the new challenges they bring?’
We need to challenge ourselves to think in a transformational and evolutionary way.
This white paper explores turning traditional thinking on its head by taking a systems approach to data centres to support the demands of today and tomorrow, covering topics such as those listed below:
