The evolution of information technology can be interpreted as a sequence of waves of industrialization of computing capacity. Each wave is born from a limitation of the previous one, reaches market scale when it finds technical standardization, an ecosystem of suppliers and clear economic value, reaches maturity when it becomes predictable and widely adopted, and enters […]

This article explains and compares three heat rejection architectures applied to closed water circuit cooling systems for data centers: air condensing chiller, water condensing chiller and dry cooler with adiabatic support. The analysis uses a 1 MW IT load, 100 10 kW racks, […]

This study deepens the comparison of carbon generation from data centers in Brazil and the United States in scopes 1, 2 and 3 of the GHG Protocol, normalizing the results per 1 MW of IT load and per year of operation. The methodology starts from a reference installation with PUE 1.4, equivalent to 12,264 […]

This article investigates how the data center market generates economic wealth from three distinct and complementary layers. The first covers the direct impacts of construction, jobs generated in the work, acquisition of materials, engineering contracting, earthworks, electrical infrastructure, fiber connection and collection of local taxes. The second brings together the indirect effects and […]
