As operators deploy cold plate and immersion cooling, the cost or operational efficiency benefits are bound to disappoint. DLC alone will not bring the breakthrough in energy or sustainability performance the industry needs.
This webinar explores the data management process improvements necessary to track and report work per energy performance to meet customer expectations and regulatory mandates.
New survey data allows Uptime Institute to look at industry power usage effectiveness (PUE) in finer detail. Comparing PUE by compute capacity shows that, on average, larger sites have lower PUEs.
This session evaluates the methodologies to account for emissions from IT operations in cloud and colocation facilities and embedded carbon in IT equipment purchases, and discusses their management as part of a net zero program.
Gigantic “gigawatt” data center campuses are being proposed or planned in many locations around the world. They could change the digital infrastructure landscape, but many questions — including how many will be built — remain.
The Uptime Institute Global Data Center Survey 2023 provided insights and site data from owners and operators globally. The findings from North America reveal key differences in the areas of staffing, energy, cloud and AI.
Over the next decade, digital infrastructure operations will need to comply with an emerging set of regulatory requirements. Managers can smooth the path to compliance by focusing on business processes and data collection.
This Q&A brings together questions and answers from a webinar on the transactions per megawatt hour metric. Topics include power management, server refresh and sustainability, GHG emissions, IT metrics and utilization rates.
Improving data center infrastructure energy efficiency is vital in helping organizations contain costs and carbon emissions that result from IT growth. This report compares seven projects using a data- and experience-based model.
The main payoff is clear: power management’s impact on performance is demonstrably low, and in most cases, customers will probably not notice that it is turned on. Even at higher points of utilization, the impact on performance is minimal.
The EU is introducing a raft of new financial and technical sustainability laws in the coming years. These laws will increase the regulatory reporting burden on owners, operators and users of European data centers.

The Uptime Institute Global Data Center Survey highlights the experiences and strategies of data center owners and operators in areas of resiliency, sustainability, efficiency, staffing, cloud and innovative technologies.
This Q&A brings together questions and answers on the EU’s Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) and its implications globally. Topics covered include reporting, efficiency, heat reuse, ISO standards, carbon capture and transparency.
The European Union Parliament and commission have agreed on the final Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) data center requirements. What does this mean for operators with a presence in the EU and what does it foretell for global data center regulation?
Digital infrastructure operators have started to refocus their sustainability objectives on 100% 24x7 carbon-free energy (CFE) consumption: using carbon-free energy for every hour of operation. To establish a 24x7 CFE strategy, operators must track…
