Delta reveals total edge and cloud Data Centre Infrastructure Solutions at CEBIT 2018

Delta, a global provider in power and thermal management solutions, announced its Datacentre Infrastructure Solutions for cloud and edge data centres are on display at the world’s leading digital innovation tradeshow, CEBIT 2018, to serve as the very foundation of the digital economy — the focus of CEBIT 2018.

The modular DPH series and the monoblock DPS series UPSs, respectively with 500kVA and 600kVA capacity each, satisfy the high power needs of cloud data centres while the brand-new RT series UPSs offer flexible configurations of 10-20 kVA for edge data centres. The new Li-ion Battery Solution for UPS systems, which boasts leading energy storage footprint with up 51.8kWh in a 19” cabinet, is an ideal solution to substantially reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) in data centres.

“As the IoT megatrend continues to expand rapidly, we’re seeing a lot of data centre resources moving to the edge. With billions of devices generating vast amounts of data that has to be stored and processed, it is impossible for centralised data centres to accommodate all the traffic. A global leader in colocation services in the Asia Pacific region, for instance, recently selected our power container solutions for their edge network,” said Jackie Chang, Delta’s president & general manager for Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA).

Visitors at the re-imagined international conference will see exciting developments for the Internet of Things (IoT), virtual reality (VR), and artificial intelligence (AI). IoT is pushing data centres to the edge, closer to end users. On the other hand, enterprises continue to outsource more of their IT and infrastructure to the cloud. These technologies require advanced data centre power, cooling and management infrastructure as soon as they are introduced on an edge or larger scale.

Delta’s total data centre infrastructure design concept provides an efficient and reliable backbone for digitisation as the overall market shifted to fewer but larger data centres. However, as IoT drives data centres to the edge, they need to become more adaptable, scalable and flexible.

The two trends that are defining the data centre infrastructure market right now — small, decentralised edge computing data centres and the increasing size of large centralised data centres — are both reflected in Delta’s product portfolio on display at this year’s CEBIT.

Delta’s exhibition at Hall 12, stand D113 offers the following highlights:

Charles Tsai, head of the Mission Critical Infrastructure Solutions (MCIS) Business Unit (BU) at Delta, said “Unsurprisingly, these two trends — Cloud and Edge — are also evident in what our customers are doing with our solutions here in Europe. Last year, for instance, Atos, a Spain-based global provider in digital transformation, implemented our modular UPS solutions to protect their MW data centre. Welcome to discover our leading technology and full product portfolio on display at CEBIT 2018.”
