There are two major challenges facing the data industry today. A new report from Nortek describes these hurdles are finite water and power resources. A new white paper explores a new data center cooling method called the StatePoint Liquid Cooling (SPLC)4 system from Nortek Solutions, and highlights a case study in Singapore.
Data Microgrids on the Rise as the Colo Industry Deploys More Resilient Power Systems
The data center industry is on the lookout for ways to better meet society’s demand for “constant connectivity, content delivery, and a myriad of business and personal necessities.” That’s according to a new special report from Data Center Frontier in partnership with Microgrid Knowledge and distributer energy leader Enchanted Rock that explores the growing symbiotic relationship between microgrids and data centers.
Advanced Multi-Circuit Metering Closes the Data Gap
Marc Bowman, Multi-Circuit Metering Systems (MCMS) Product General Manager for Anord Mardix, delves into the factors that distinguishes MCM systems. An advanced MCMS approach makes use of the capabilities already built in to MCMS meters and then overlays sophisticated software and analytics on top to provide a robust view of the entire electrical landscape of a data center.
The Impact & Importance of Electrical Metering on Data Center Power Management
Over the last decade, electrical metering has become “key” for data center management. That’s according to a new Anord Mardix report that explores the potential for optimizing data center power management with advanced multi-circuit monitoring systems. A new report from Anord Marix explores how data center power management can work toward your advantage utilizing advanced multi-circuit monitoring systems.
Don’t Let Busway Be the Weak Link in Your DC Electrical Safety Chain
Andy Banks, Director of Databar Sales (North America) for Anord Mardix, explores in detail how the Busway can efficiently and effectively distribute power throughout a data center environment. By designing safety directly into the components being installed on live busway, operators can minimize risks associated with busway installation and maintenance and prevent electrical accidents.
