Keeping cool in the data center

Keeping cool in the data center: it’s easy to see room for improvement when you know that close to half of the energy consumed within a data center is used just to maintain the server equipment at the required operating environment. The Modular Cooling solution provided by Alcatel-Lucent gives a path towards eco-sustainability with up to 90% more efficiency than conventional methods. Watch how in this video and read further more in our recently published white paper.

As service providers and other organizations take steps to ensure competitiveness in a challenging market, many are examining new approaches to data center cooling technology. Current heat exchange methods for cooling data centers are inherently inefficient in meeting the requirements imposed by today’s dense, high-speed computing equipment, and they can contribute considerable expense as well. By implementing a solution that aligns with a range of business initiatives — including cost-effective operation, optimization of energy efficiencies, reduced management complexity, and the need to meet green computing initiatives — service providers can address these challenges and extend their competitive advantage.

Read our recently published white paper to learn more about how a modular, “two-phase” pumped refrigerant cooling method can significantly improve data center power consumption.
