Data Center Trends 2023: What Drives Philippines’ Infrastructure Growth This Year? #Vertiv #Technology

Published

on

The Philippines remains one of the leading countries for new data center hubs. According to the Philippines Data Center Market – Investment Analysis & Growth Opportunities 2023-2028 report, the market is expected to grow at a compounded of 11.01 percent. 

This growth rate will continue to rise steadily from 2022 to 2027. This is mainly driven by the boom of 5G network connectivity, sustainable initiatives by data center investors, the rise in submarine cable deployment, and the emergence and adoption of advanced IT workloads in the country.   

“The growing number of data center facilities in the Philippines proves that the country is ready for digitization and digital transformation. But operators should know the data center trends in 2023 for more effective efforts to grow the facilities and infrastructure in the Philippines,” said Jason Lim, Country Manager, Vertiv Philippines.  

Here are some of the data center trends that will shape 2023 as shared by Vertiv:  

More demand means more regulations. Data center markets are hungry to expand their reach and services because operators are pressured to meet consumers’ demands. They must double up building data center hubs and their energy consumption. However, this poses a huge problem related to sustainability and their excessive consumption of natural resources (energy and water).

With this reality, government and the public will demand operators to control and regulate their consumption which will slow the deployment. It started last year when Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) released a statement wherein they are eager to study and investigate the massive energy use of data centers. 

This 2023, government regulations will heighten, but that does not mean that hubs do not have potential growth this year. Data center operators must be more careful and strategic in constructing their hubs and expanding their nationwide network. To do so, they need to integrate high-efficiency UPS systems, lithium-ion batteries, and water-free cooling into their systems which Vertiv offers.

Metaverse arrives, the use of AI rises, and the 5G network strengthens. In a world where convenience and technology join forces, the metaverse becomes a key player in new and existing industries. 

Data Center Trends 2023: What Drives Philippines' Infrastructure Growth This Year? #Vertiv #Technology

The concept behind the metaverse is a world where everyone can live, work, shop, learn, interact, and more using technology and the internet in the comforts of their physical world. Under the existence of the metaverse is virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), social media, digital currency, and of course, artificial intelligence (AI).  

AI is slowly being integrated into Filipino’s daily lives, and businesses and operators are looking into it as part of their new technologies this year. With this, the Philippines need to keep up with the growing expansion of the metaverse by increasing and strengthening the reach of 5G networks because only 5G can support metaverse to provide ultra-low latency features that the application demands.

Vertiv offers the technologies needed to support this: integrated rack, row, and room modules, intelligent high-efficiency UPS systems with lithium-ion batteries, air and liquid cooling solutions, intelligent monitoring and management systems enabling remote management, control, and service, and DC power systems and controls.

New thermal strategies for higher densities. Now that the Philippines expects rapid growth in data centers, the operators foresee using more power in data centers. But as a technology that uses high amounts of energy, operators are now exploring new thermal technologies to make it more sustainable.

One of these is liquid-cooling technology because it can keep up with the growing server power consumption. While this is not technically a new technology, operators have seen its potential and efficiency in high-density environments. Moreover, they can explore Vertiv’s technologies like rear-door heat exchangers, direct-to-chip liquid cooling, immersion cooling, and intelligent controls.

Indeed, the data center market is expected to present new developments in technologies, simplicity, and sustainability this year. And, as the country strives for digitization and digital transformation, Vertiv is here to assist operators in expanding data center hubs and participate in ongoing infrastructure growth.

The company provides solutions for the organization’s application by pre-engineering, pre-configuring, pre-testing, and pre-validating it against its unique requirements. It also offers cutting-edge, sustainable, and innovative solutions that improve the performance and scalability of data centers, communication networks, and other critical IT facilities.

#Vertiv Introduces Upgraded Chilled Water Cooling Solution for High Density and High Compute IT Environments in Asia

Published

on

The Vertiv™ Liebert® Air Handling Unit (AHU) supports high heat loads with minimal footprint

Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, today unveiled the upgraded Vertiv™ Liebert® Air Handling Unit (AHU), a high-capacity, chilled water cooling solution designed to support high-density compute environments, while offering a more energy efficient approach to heat management. The Liebert AHU has a standard unit capacity of 300kW, and is now available throughout Australia, New Zealand, Southeast Asia and India (ASI) region.

The new Liebert® AHU chilled water unit utilizes water or air-side economizatons and high-efficiency EC fans, working with hot aisle containment to avoid the mixture of supply and return air. The Liebert AHU also operates at higher return air temperature and with higher chilled water temperature, increasing chiller efficiency. With its highly efficient components such as Electronically Commutated (EC) fan, Pressure Independent Control Valve and intelligent controller with multiple remote temperature sensors, the Liebert AHU supplies proper airflow, temperature, and humidity for supported critical IT equipment.

The new model of Liebert AHU is completely chilled water based, and designed with a fan wall configuration that allows for a smoother supply air distribution and higher efficiency hot aisle containment, compared to the previous model. It is designed to achieve the highest standard for fan efficiency of up to 0.2W/CMH. This model has a smaller unit depth, can be modularly installed and is easily serviceable.

The Vertiv™  Liebert® AHU adapts easily to a non-raised floor design simplifying installation, shortening deployment time and reducing associated costs, compared to raised floor systems. The Liebert® AHU cools high-density servers through horizontal air discharge, delivering an even airflow distribution and uniform temperature across the data hall.

The Liebert AHU also allows provision for redundancy or future expansion as it requires no clearance in between units and may be positioned side by side seamlessly. Each unit is built to last and CE Certified for safety and reliability. During maintenance, personnel can access the components from the corridor side and no longer need to enter the data center hall. 

The Liebert AHU addresses customers’ needs for a higher-capacity yet compact cooling solution as kW/rack demand continues to increase and data center space is limited, and operates efficiently to combat rising energy costs. Likewise, its modular installation and non-raised floor application makes it an ideal choice for managers aiming to both reduce CAPEX and flexibly deploy cooling units as demand grows.

“Sustainability has become one of the most important points of discussion among organizations today and data center cooling poses a lot of opportunities to optimize energy use. Vertiv’s thermal management systems, including the Liebert AHU, can help reduce energy consumption in the data center and is one of the most effective choices for cooling high density environments,” said Chee Hoe Ling, vice president of infrastructure solutions at Vertiv™ ASI.
