2.1 Disaster protection
Box in box construction:
The outer box is equipped with dewatering
pumps.
The inner box is completely hermetically sealed,
ball bearing mounted and equipped with an
carbon dioxide fire fighting system.
Best possible protection against:
• Earthquakes
• Typhoons
• Flood
• Fire

2.3 Digital security
• Data back-up
• Data double allocation to avoid failure
• Encryption
• Monitoring
After installation of client’s systems in the racks,
special monitoring software will be introduced in
order to control the activities of customers

3.1 Reasoning
• Issues:
• Nearly 2/3 of the energy produced by
burning coal or fossil fuel is wasted
• Power consumption constitutes the
biggest cost for data centres
• Enormous amount of water needed to
cool data centres
• Challenges:
• Balance growth and consolidation
• Find ways to make data centre more
efficient

3.2 TRI Concept
• It means using the energy that is wasted from
other operational processes.
• Purpose:
• POWER
• HEAT
• COOLING
• Benefit:
• It improves efficiency and reduce
operating costs

3.3 Modular concept
• Data Centre On Demand
• Purpose:
• We need to be ready for on demand
expansion possibilities.
• Partnering with Huawei who offers modular
solutions to increase space and capacity.
“Enterprises are dealing with a continual data
deluge and have to find ways to expand their
capacity quickly and efficiently”

3.4 Measuring efficiency
• Metrics are needed in order to keep track the
progress in reaching the targets of efficiency
• Power Usage Efficiency (PUE)
• Carbon Usage Effectiveness (CUE)
• Water Usage Effectiveness (WUE)
