Colt Data Centre Services’ Post

A personal view: there is quite a bit of unbalanced coverage in the news and business media recently, casting data centre companies as the bad guys...gobbling up land and power and being big contributors to carbon emissions. Data construction does of course need a lot of concrete and steel, and some older cooling technologies consume too much water. My experience though, evidenced by the genuinely passionate team that pulled together Colt DCS' Sustainability report ( summarised in the below video ), is that the industry is playing a role in future reductions in emissions. A balanced view is that 1) Cloud computing power in a data centre is several times more efficient than a server in your office or home 2) Data centre companies are driving or directly investing in sustainable power generation and improvements to the electricity grid and lets not to forget that 3) Cloud computing and AI, the growth of which is driving data centre construction, can be of benefit - only a small portion is for social media! How much travel has Teams and Zoom eliminated? AI is already in use to improve early diagnosis of some horrible diseases. Anyrate please take a look at the video, and reach out if you'd like to find out more or even be a part of a company with sustainability at it's core.
