Data centre resilience is being tested
Volatile energy pricing, build and supply chain disruption and growing awareness of the data centre sector’s high rate of consumption all jeopardise its aim to remain online more than 99% of the time.
To understand the main challenges facing key European markets, we have gathered insights from 700 European data centre consultants and mapped the responses in our two-part series of reports - Uptime on the Line?
The reports also explore opportunities to offset energy and temperature control challenges faced by the sector, to improve resilience, manage costs and meet sustainability targets.
