Our Datacentre Technology

Our Data Centre, The Dataport utilise's the latest power efficient technologies with an energy efficient UPS system and Free Air Cooling providing the air conditioning.
Typically saving 35% of the energy used by a conventional air-cooled liquid chiller, these chillers use a free-cooling cycle to reduce the need for mechanical cooling, thus significantly reducing the energy consumption and carbon emissions of the air con units.
By delivering energy efficiency of up to 98%, the MGE UPS system helps us to reduce operating costs over the life of the UPS system. In addition, the unique UPS system topology proposed by MGEs system designers leads to significant energy savings, ensuring best value for Netcetera customers.
As a company we will be using virtualisation technologies, which in conjunction with other initiatives will allow us to reduce our carbon footprint. Server utilisation rates in standard physical environments generally run at around 15 percent; but using virtualisation to run multiple virtual servers on each physical machine can drive utilisation up to 70 percent and above. We will be offering this technology to our customers so that we can increase server utilisation in the data centre as much as possible

Data Centres tend not to be viewed favourably when it comes to their carbon footprints with the amount of power that is consumed at each facility, despite the benefits of multiple businesses sharing one purpose built facility.

So here at Netcetera we believe it is our duty to do all we can in order to try and reverse the effect our business is having on the environment. Initiatives such as carbon offsetting along with the latest technologies to increase power efficiency will help to reduce our carbon footprint and act as our contribution towards the larger picture of protecting the environment. This will, in turn, help our customers become greener too.
