In today’s fast-paced, data-driven world, organisations need reliable, scalable, and compact IT infrastructure that can adapt seamlessly to various environments — from corporate offices to remote edge locations. Micro data centres provide just that: a self-contained, plug-and-play data centre that houses all the essential IT components in a secure, compact form factor. Unlike traditional server rooms, micro data centres are highly flexible and can be deployed quickly, delivering the power of a full-sized data centre in a fraction of the space.
One of the key benefits of our micro data centres is their complete vendor independence. Being vendor-agnostic means you can integrate any compatible 19″ rack-mounted equipment, offering you the flexibility to adapt as your needs change without being locked into specific brands.
What’s included in our micro data centres
- Smart automation (Zella Sense): Monitor and manage your micro data centre remotely with Zella Sense. This smart automation system provides real-time insights into critical parameters like temperature, humidity, and power, enhancing uptime and overall performance.
- Intelligent Power Distribution Unit (PDU): Each unit comes equipped with a rack-mounted PDU to manage power distribution across servers, switches, and other devices. This helps balance power loads, providing safe and efficient power management for your equipment.
- Precision cooling: Our advanced active cooling maintains a consistent temperature and humidity within the micro data centre, operating in a closed-loop design that prevents air exchange. This keeps equipment safe from external contaminants, while ensuring optimal performance.
- Switchboard: Our integrated switchboard simplifies power connectivity, making setup fast and straightforward. Ideal for environments where uptime is essential, this switchboard ensures a quick and reliable power source connection.
- Advanced security: Each unit is designed with both cyber and physical security measures, safeguarding your data from physical tampering and online threats alike. Access control options, encryption, and firewalls protect against unauthorised access.
What you can add to our micro data centres
Since all our micro data centres are vendor-agnostic, you can easily expand and customise with additional 19″ rack-mounted equipment, including:
- Fire protection: We offer the Pyrorack fire protection system, but you also have the option to integrate your preferred fire safety solutions.
- Servers: Add servers as needed to customise computing power and storage based on your organisation’s specific requirements.
- UPS / batteries: Keep your micro data centre running during outages with a UPS or battery solution. We can provide these or you can integrate your own for continuous uptime.
- Communication systems: Easily incorporate networking equipment, from routers to modems, to maintain secure, reliable connectivity.
- Storage solutions: Integrate data storage solutions to scale your data needs with your growing business, ensuring you’re ready for future expansions.
