Modular data center for research<\/h1><\/div>

A modular and resilient data center designed to grow over the time<\/h3><\/div>

For a leading national public research institute, the data center represents an essential element in ensuring continuity of scientific activities and data reliability.<\/p>\n

The project was created from the need to develop a medium-sized data center, designed to evolve in phases and support constantly changing IT loads.<\/p>\n

A service interruption would have had a direct impact on research activities. For this reason, the infrastructure had to be resilient and designed to grow over time, while maintaining high standards of security and accessibility.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Starting needs<\/h3><\/div>

The institute needed to develop a data center capable of supporting medium-to-high IT loads, with a modular structure designed to be implemented in phases. The first phase included the installation of ten racks, integrating both air and liquid cooling technologies. <\/p>\n

As a public entity, the project had to meet stringent requirements in terms of certification, security, and accessibility, while at the same time ensuring the highest level of operational continuity.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The DataDom solution<\/h3><\/div>

The solution was a prefabricated data center delivered as a kit and installed within a parking area identified as the infrastructure site. A solution that optimized space and construction time while maintaining high performance standards. <\/p>\n

Although it is a medium-sized data center, the infrastructure maintains the same ANSI\/TIA Rating 4 resilience level typical of higher-tier facilities. The structure is REI 120 fire-resistant and compliant with regulations for accessibility for people with disabilities. <\/p>\n

An infrastructure ready to grow with research<\/h3><\/div>

This project demonstrates how a prefabricated data center can effectively meet the needs of public research: high-level certifications, resilience, modularity, and the integration of advanced technologies.<\/p>\n

An infrastructure designed to support scientific activities today and accompany their evolution over time<\/p>\n<\/div>
