The micro DC form factor has been around for some time, but the power and functionality that can now be packed into these units is incredible. You can now squeeze so much computing power into a small space, that a room full of data centre racks may be overkill for your DC assets and needs on-site. Even high-density workloads (up to 80Kw power consumption) can be housed in a single micro data centre cabinet.
The popularity of architectures such as Edge Computing and the IoT means data centres are increasingly distributed across much wider geographical locations. This gives organisations the opportunity to locate smaller data centres on-site in remote locations, where they can gain performance improvements, by being closer to fibre backbones or the sensors on which they rely, and even operating autonomously, particularly in the event of a wider network outage. This is becoming common in a wide range of industries for edge computing use cases from telco towers to industrial processing.

Keeping it secure

One of the key advantages of our Micro data centres is that they can be housed in almost any location, regardless of the environmental conditions and your computing needs. Our units have been installed in production lines, remote industrial locations, under desks and outside exposed to the elements.
Unlike traditional data centres one of the biggest challenges can be keeping a micro data centre in harmony with its environment and the risks it might be exposed to. Under a desk, it needs to run silently but is perhaps relatively secure as it benefits from wider building security. Outside it may need to deal with extremes of temperature and the constant risk of theft, if in an unstaffed location.

Benefits

  • Scalable
  • Energy efficient airflow and cooling
  • Very high-density applications (80kW per cabinet)
  • IP55 rated

Power in a Small Package

Our micro DC cabinets offer an all-in-one solution, with all the essential technologies available for a complete data centre, designed and built by our team to your specifications. 19” server racks, cable management, cooling, UPS, power, environment monitoring, access control/security and fire suppression, can all be housed within the cabinets, creating a secure and compact DC.

All the server racks and critical infrastructure of a larger DC can be found in these convenient units, without compromising security, or performance or needing dedicated server rooms.

What Are the Options?

Cabinets are available in two heights (40U and 45U) and in widths of 400mm, 600mm and 800mm. The 400mm width unit is designed to accommodate an InRow cooling unit whilst the 600mm is a standard width cabinet. The 800mm cabinet chassis is for networking and high-density applications (up to 80Kw in a single cabinet!)
Our micro data centre range comes with a host of features and options including lighting, door access control, access ramps, blanking panels, and enclosed weather shelters. Units can also be customised with your company branding and a range of frame colours.
Designed with scalability in mind, you can purchase a single 19” cabinet and the appropriate cooling system, scaling out over time as your budget or your equipment needs change.

How it works

Designed For You

Our micro data centre range has been designed to mitigate a number of risks, and our consultants will work with you to identify those in your organisation and create the right DC design. For example, in a production setting, we will use specialist air filtration and insulation to minimise the risks of airborne particulates and temperature extremes.
Security issues matter too. Our micro data centres can include the latest version available of hi-tech access controls, hardened cabinets, CCTV and monitoring systems which will make teams aware of any unauthorised access attempt or tampering with cabinets.

FAQ

Answers to the Most
Common Questions

A data centre design and build service provides end-to-end solutions for creating a data centre. This includes planning, designing the infrastructure, and actual construction, ensuring an efficient and functional facility.
There are three key areas to consider when planning to build a new data centre to ensure the project meets the needs of the organisation it’s designed to serve: existing facilities, the organisation’s business needs, and the data centre technology environment. Having answers to specific questions in these three areas will put your organisation in a position to make the best choice for design, build, installation, and start-up of your new data centre.
Key to understanding how to plan and build a new data centre is knowing the details of your existing data centre setup and capacity, whether that is your own facility, a colocation provider, or a cloud service.
Getting a clear picture of what already exists helps determine if building a new data centre is indeed the right option. In this digital age It’s possible that colocation, outsourcing, or a cloud or hybrid model could best meet your organisation’s data centre needs.
As part of this evaluation process, it’s also critical to understand the goals of the business, and how the data centre meets the needs of the company. A key part of this is understanding the scale of IT in the organisation, as well as how the data centre and its operations align with the business. That requires looking closely at how much data the business deals with, how it is gathered, stored, and accessed, what contact uses the data and how, and the relevant industry standards the data centre must comply with.
After getting a good sense of organisational goals and how the existing facilities are serving the business, and could you scale this down. it’s also critical to understand the company’s technology and data center physical environments.
Data centre projects are complex undertakings. When it’s done right, a brand new data center will support your business objectives and meet current and anticipated future needs. The way to set up your organisation for success with this project is to understand existing data centre facilities, know the business needs of the organisation, and have knowledge of the necessary data centre and technology environment.
Buildings used as storage facilities are most often located in the suburbs, areas with uninterrupted power supply. The centres are built in a fenced area that is protected from unauthorised intrusion. Data centres are located in one- or two-storey buildings, in buildings using modular construction techniques or containerised units. They can also be built internal or external of a main building
The data center houses switching routing and storage hardware. The function of that hardware depends on the type of data center. There is also generally a large amount of power and cooling equipment as well as admin space. Some data centers are for access from a customer to a business’s serve
Sometimes they can be found in the city centres, refurbishing industrial buildings, storage facilities, and hangars. Buildings must meet strict requirements, must be selected based on the load-bearing capacity of walls and floors, and the materials used for construction.
To ensure an uninterrupted power supply, two mains from different substations, battery packs and emergency diesel generators are normally used. Switching to the emergency power supply is performed in milliseconds, so the risk of losing company data is minimised.
The timeframe can vary based on the size, complexity, and specific requirements of the project. Generally, smaller data centres might take a few months, while larger or more complex projects can extend to over a year.
Several factors are considered, including the client’s capacity needs, scalability, redundancy, cooling and ventilation systems, energy efficiency, and security measures. The geographical location and potential natural disaster risks are also evaluated.
We adopt the latest technologies and best practices, such as using energy-efficient hardware, advanced cooling systems, and renewable energy sources when possible. Regular energy audits also help in maintaining efficiency.
Absolutely. Our designs often incorporate modular elements that allow for easy expansion, ensuring the facility can evolve with growing data needs.

Costs can vary widely based on the size, location, technologies used, and other factors. We recommend reaching out with specific project details for a tailored estimate.
