Rack based cooling with cooling capacity
of up to 32kW for server cabinets
Stulz UK has launched the CyberRack, a new chilled water rear heat exchanger, with cooling
capacity from 19 to 32kW across the range. Its adapter frame ensures the system fits most 19in
server cabinets.
Stulz is expanding its product portfolio for rack
based cooling systems with the CyberRack active rear
door. The heat exchanger door replaces the back panel
of the rack, and its compact design enables the cooling
of all server cabinets, including high density systems,
directly inside the data centre. The space in the rack
remains fully available for IT equipment.
As the depth of the rack increases by less than
300mm, the door can also be retrofitted in existing
installations – no repositioning of server racks is
needed. Two versions of this product are available,
with a cooling capacity of 19 or 32kW. Up to five EC fans
ensure an optimum airflow.
The cooling capacity of the CyberRack is
automatically adapted to the heat load of the servers.
This is achieved either directly through continuous
analysis of the measured temperatures, or indirectly
via differential pressure control. In this instance, the
speed of the CyberRack fans is adjusted in line with the
airflow of the servers’ own fans.

Snowflake
Announces
World First
– The Data
Sharehouse
Snowflake Computing
has announced its newest
and most transformative
innovation, extending the
modern data warehouse to the
world’s first data sharehouse.
Snowflake continues to
deliver on its founding vision
of removing all technology
barriers that prevent
enterprises from acquiring
complete insight from any and
all available data.
Now, any enterprise can
share any part of its data
warehouse in a governed and
secure way, with any other
enterprise, and without the
delays, cost and friction of
existing methods that provide
only primitive mechanisms
for data publishing, access,
and control. And unlike
data consortiums, which
serve a limited number of
organisations, Snowflake
is a data market open to all
organisations, removing
another barrier that inhibits
enterprises from accessing
limitless data.
Modern data sharing
enables organisations to
easily forge one-to-one, one-
to-many and many-to-many
relationships to share their
data in new ways that generate
revenue and insight. Some
examples of use are the ability
to: Deliver new products;
create new differentiation;
unify data silos; drive business
efficiency and unlock new
insights from data.
