Wireless Shortcut to Avoid Data Center Traffic Jams
To better handle data center congestion, researchers are testing a shortcut that doesn’t involve costly rewiring. They are experimenting with wireless links, mounted atop the server racks, to supply extra bandwidth for moving data along at crunch times. The Microsoft team forged ahead with the project, building and testing a system with tiny directional antennas at the top of … [Read more...]
The Increasing Challenge of Data Center Design and Management: Is CFD a Must?
Data centers have been cooled for many years by delivering cool air to the IT equipment via the room. One of the key advantages of this approach is the flexibility that it provides the owner/operator in terms of equipment deployment. In principle all that is necessary is to determine the maximum power consumption of the equipment and provide an equivalent amount of cooling to … [Read more...]
Direct Current-Powered Data Center Module
ABB and IO have agreed to partner in the development of a new data center module based on direct current (DC) power to meet increasing demand for DC data centers. DC-powered technology is being increasingly adopted for electrical distribution in data centers as it reduces power conversion losses and is 10 to 20 percent more energy efficient than traditional alternating current … [Read more...]
