Datacentre Solution of The Year accolade
Schneider Electric, the global specialist in energy management and automation, has won the prestigious ‘Datacentre Solution of The Year’ category at the European IT & Software Excellence Awards, 2017.
The award, for an upgrade project delivered in conjunction with APC by Schneider Electric Elite Partner Comtec Power, a leading UK data centre design and build company, was facilitated to meet the differing needs of Cardiff University’s High Performance Computing (HPC), Advanced research (ARCCA) facility.
The University worked with Comtec to design, populate and upgrade its data centre, which utilised components of Schneider Electric’s InfraStruxure (ISX) data-centre physical infrastructure solution in addition to high efficiency chillers and the StruxureWare for Data Centers: Data Center Operations Energy Efficiency software module.
