I was extremely proud that our Data Centre Optimisation (DCOP) Manager Anuraag Saxena -who originally joined EkkoSense as an intern as part of his Masters degree at Nottingham University – was announced as the winner of the 2018 DCS Awards Datacentre Individual of the Year category!

If organisations are serious about achieving new levels of thermal efficiency in their data centres, but are unable to remain focused on this singular aspect of their operation, they absolutely need access to meaningful real-time cooling data that they can use to apply to their space, power, cooling and other airflow dynamics.

It was great to have the opportunity to speak recently with Andy Lawrence from 451 Research. Andy is the Research VP for Datacenters and Critical Infrastructure at 451 Research, and he has had a long-term interest in data centre efficiency, and the convergence of IT and energy technologies.

We would like to invite you to attend the upcoming Data Centre World 2018 show at Excel in London, and visit us on stand D1210 to be one of the first to have a 1:1 demonstration our powerful new software-driven thermal optimisation solutions for critical facilities.

Daisy Group is a digital provider of end-to-end business communications and managed services solutions that relies on several business-critical data centres at the heart of its business. In order to reduce the risk of thermal performance issues on its data centres, Daisy initially selected EkkoSense’s EkkoSoft Critical intuitive and immersive web-based 3D software and sensor offering to help manage two of its critical data centre facilities in Farnborough and Hamilton.

While everyone agrees that effective cooling is critical to optimise data centre performance, it’s surprising how little emphasis organisations actually place on precision thermal monitoring.
