Keysource Data Centres of the Future
- 1. Rob Elder Director Consultancy Design & Build Modular Data Centre Infrastructure DCIM Facilities Management
- 2. What we do 2
- 3. My Challenge • 11 Presentations on Data Centres of the future – Today • 10 tomorrow • Ask some basic questions • Give some insight into the industry • Give my prediction 3
- 4. What is the future? (The Future – Part 1) • 2008 DCD awards - Fujitsu won Innovations in the Mega-Data Centre (PUE 1.4) – Looks like a normal DC • 2008 DCD awards – EDS won ‘Green’ Data Centre award (PUE 1.16) – 50 brightest minds 4 day workshop. Direct Fresh Air. • 2009 DCD Awards – PGS won Innovation in medium Data Centre (PUE 1.25 – PUE 1.15) • 2013 DCD Awards – Colt ftec won Innovation in medium Data Centre (PUE 1.21) and modular construction. Launched in Nice 2011. 4
- 5. The Future – Part 2 5 36 acre, secure campus 20MVA growing to 40MVA 22,000m2 34MVA Stratford – 14,000m2 40MVA 65,000ft2 20MVA PUE 1.2 40kW per rack 14,000ft2 6.2MVAMVA 30kW per rack 9.5 acre Sub 1.2 PUE 30MVA
- 6. Commonality? • Size • Total Power • Resilience • PUE • Rack power density Intelligence Technology Location 6
- 7. The Future - Part 3 7
- 8. Collaboration and Innovation • “performance-management systems, simulation and high-performance engineering,” IO press release 8
- 9. The Future – Part 3 • Location – Assured Power – Onsite Power generation – Use of Natural resources and renewable energy – (Hydro, Geo Thermal, Shale Gas) • “The carrier-neutral colocation market in China will grow some 380% by 2016.” source DCD Intelligence 2013 • Only 1 US City with over 5m population. China has 94 • 8 Chinese Cities have population of more than 10m. Chongqing and Shanghai are the 2 largest with 29m and 23m respectively. 9
- 10. Chayora • The Western Bridge into China • Global Data Centre player • Sites IRO 200 hectares (500 Acres or 5 x London City Airport) • 200 – 300MW site power • High capacity resilient connectivity Approach to development • Western Expertise • Global Supply Chain • In country partnerships and design institutes 10
- 11. My Predictions • Data Centres of the future will broadly look like Data Centres of today – No mechanical cooling but not fresh air – Increased Power Density and Reduced Thermal output from IT – Power and Cooling as a utility using heat from another process – Increased focus on connectivity • Collection and usability of Data and automated Management and optimisation will become the norm • Integration of software and hardware means reduced resilience • Wider Variety - Physical design and infrastructure will be tailored to the application -resilience, performance (processing, storage) • Commercial squeeze on service providers in competitive markets (IaaS) • Huge growth in emerging markets 11
