Power and cooling
• IT containers that can host up to 30 racks
• 200 kW of maximum power
• Everything is cooled with NFC
• NFC is Natural Free Cooling, a very efficient cooling system
• It gives a PUE of 1.15 to this data center

Natural Free Cooling
• It is a patented cooling system of AST
• It is easily attachable to an ISO container
• Only uses free cooling till 24 ºC

Natural Free Cooling(2)
• No cross contamination(IT isolated)
• Efficient hot/cold aisles distribution
• Humidity control
• Vertical and horizontal installation
• Passive air to air exchanger

Natural Free Cooling(3)
• It uses what’s called ‘evaporative cooling’
• It is an efficient way of cooling and justrequires water
• The IT module works like a normal data center, with cold and hot corridors

Natural Free Cooling(5)
• The heat that has been exchanged inside isexhausted through outside pipes
• It also use fans constantly regulated withoutside and inside temperature sensors

Placement
• Placed in a car park in Denmark
• Built by AST Modular(Barcelona, Spain)

Placement(2)
• The data center is divided in 2 sites
• Constructed for IBM and financial activities
• The second place has all the containerstogether, without any partition wall

Equipment(entire facility)
• Seven 40’ IT containers
• Seven 10’ Natural Free Cooling containers
• Four 20’ container housing diesel generators
• N+N electrical design and N+1 cooling design
• SCADA interface to control more than 400 sensors for module

Equipment(2, IT modules)
• Racks mounted in a rail system(commontechnique in modular systems)
• Reachable back side and front side of theracks inside a container

Equipment(3, power modules)
• 2 UPS with dedicated batteries
• 20 minutes of backup time
• Electrical switch boards also replicated
• Supply power to the other modules, like the IT and NFC cooling modules
• This datacenter is Tier 3 level

Equipment(4, security)
• Modules equiped with VESDA, very earlydetection system
• Gas to extinguish fire
• Temperature, relative humidity and pressuresensors
• SCADA system controls sensors and sendsignals to fans and cooling systems

Benefits of modular design
• Fast deployment, 12 to 18 weeks vs 12 to 24 months for traditional
• AST can deliver a ready to use data center toany place of the world
• Simplify complexity and risks associated totraditional construction

Benefits of modular design(2)
• Reduced OPEX:
– 20% to 40% improvements in Energy Efficiency
– Temperature easier to control in less space
– Natural Free Cooling is very efficient and avoidshazards from contaminated air

Benefits of modular design(3)
• Reduced CAPEX:
– No dedicated building is needed(just a car park)
– Expand and build as you need
– We can even stack containers
– Plug & Play thanks to ready to be installedmodules
– Includes all the critical infrastucture needed for a 24/7 data center

Another example
• The Thor Data Center
• Located in Reikiavik, Iceland
• Possibly the most efficient data center
• Thanks to the weather conditions and the NFC system, Thor can achieve a PUE of 1.07

Another example
• It gives service to more than 20 million clients
• Famous because Opera uses it as its data center
• It is the result of the advertisement thatIceland is doing of its country as a perfect data center place

Conclusions
• Big enterprises likeMicrosoft, Google, HP, IBM, etc. are alreadydeploying this kind of data centers, so it mustbe the way to go
• Modular and container data center are lesscomplex, more efficient and adapts to smalland big designs.

Conclusions(2)
• The old named AST Global has even changedits brand name to AST Modular
• They really think the future is the modular data center, creating new technologies like theNFC system that has bring them to the top in data center deployment companies
