The things I don’t worry about include Brexit - what I do worry about is how the Internet is changing
Our politicians seem oblivious to what we do best
UPS systems featuring Silicon Carbide transistors could save energy and negate risks associated with eco-mode
When is a kW not a kW? The answer is ‘when the UPS is kW=kVA rated’
As it turns out, Zettastructure isn’t much of a target
We have two uptime ‘metrics,’ somewhat interlinked and both abused
A few releases from the data center industry could be spreading confusion
Eco-mode saves power but increases the risks associated with a UPS. Silicon carbide could give the best of both worlds
There is a world of difference between the best CFD and the worst
Computational fluid dynamics can model airflow in servers, but a whole data center space is more complex
Who says that data centres have to be renewably powered?
If the UK really does have a number of open source hyper-scale data centers in operation, where are they?
Making use of your excess heat energy is logical - if you have a load that needs heat
I’m sceptical by nature but this latest ‘power warning’ is either deliberate scaremongering or misguided rubbish
Genset OEMs play fast and loose with generator ratings, and you could end up the worse for it
Medieval alchemists never managed the transformations that today’s technologists have achieved
The UK government tried to offer tax incentives for buying efficient UPS systems. The effort was doomed from the start
ASHRAE has said data centers don’t need humidification. Fancy a wager on when its recommendations will be adopted?
Google is sharing its 48VDC power distribution with the Open Compute Project. This will be of limited use in European data centers
A data center powered exclusively by the sun is not ufeasible, but it is highly impractical
