‘Currently, one of the biggest challenges facing data
centre facilities is the ability to support the necessary power
requirements or headroom for growth, and in doing so this caps
what can be achieved for customers.
‘Aegis Data’s data halls are specifically engineered to
deliver the high density power and cooling required by these
next-generation platforms, and in doing so provides the per fect
complement for vScaler’s offering.’
