The second issue of the magazine TsODy.RF

According to various estimates, the volume of electricity consumed by data processing centers is enormous: 1.5–2% of the total share of all electricity generated in the world. Many experts agree that, despite the measures taken to improve the energy efficiency of the data center infrastructure, this figure will steadily increase in the coming years.

In modern data centers, at least 50% of operating costs are for electricity. Therefore, the choice of technology, commissioning and operation of power equipment are among the most acute and important topics that we would like to talk about on the pages of the second issue of TsODY.RF magazine.

In Russia, an increasing preference is given to dynamic sources of uninterruptible power supply: the volume of deliveries to our country of DIBP, which are not subject to customs duty, is steadily increasing. This year, the capacity of the DIBP machine installed in the Russian data center exceeded 2,000 MVA. The main topic of the issue is a detailed answer to the question of what attracts this technology to engineers.

While the debate in Russia on which of the power supply schemes is the most resilient and energy efficient — with the use of traditional or dynamic UPSs, the topic of fuel cells, which are designed to replace not only UPSs with batteries, but also diesel power plants, is being actively pursued in Russia. Read about the prospects and key players in the TE market in the Trends section.

The face of the issue was Sergey Lysakov, who, without exaggeration, can be called one of the locomotives of the Russian Data Processing Center. With his approach to the creation and development of modern modular data centers, educational initiatives, views on the Russian market through the prism of the West, you can find in an interview published in the journal.

For those who are just going to build their data center, practical notes about the nuances in the interaction between the customer and the contractor during the design and construction of the data center, all the subtleties and pitfalls when choosing a site for the construction of the data center faced by employees of many companies will not be without interest. after the site is defined and work is underway.

Design engineers, we offer a discussion of the next concept of the data center. And the basic rules and practical aspects of decisions when designing a data center for many will be an invaluable tool in the work.

In the second issue of the journal, the main columns will be presented by the permanent staff of one of the most modern and innovative data centers in Russia, Vasilich, Semyon and Igor - please love and favor.

And many more interesting and, no doubt, useful is waiting for you on the pages of the spring issue of the magazine "TsODy.RF". I wish you a pleasant reading!
