DESIGN & BUILD
Embracing a closed-loop system
Future data centres should operate in closed-loop environments, enabled by immersion liquid cooling solutions
Integrating circular economy principles
Data centres must consider their endto-end impacts to lower carbon emissions and reduce e-waste
Rethinking modularity and space
Space-saving designs have become more necessary and businesses must now ensure that systems are compact and built for efficiency
Designing for scalability
Data centres must consider not only current compute needs, but also that of the future, with technology offering flexibility and agility long-term maintenance, customers receive direct access to our expert field service and Level 3 engineering teams. This is crucial when establishing plans to use legacy hardware as a prominent part of the data centre infrastructure strategy.”
Reducing the need for new equipment is an essential way to reduce electronic waste and, according to Chris, also provides cost savings and immediate availability, despite global supply chain disruptions.
“ Where we can, we recycle unwanted equipment into maintenance, hardware brokerage, pre-owned hardware supply and scrap / refining markets,” he says.“ When the life of components does come to an end, we also provide our customers with the means to quickly and safely decommission and dispose of IT assets, through a comprehensive IT Asset Disposition( ITAD) service.
“ This guarantees the responsible disposal of electronic waste, complete
