Emergency Generators for Hyperscale Data Centers

Hyperscale data centers, as their name suggests, operate similarly to traditional data centers, but have increased specifications and technology implemented to meet higher demands than those of traditional data centers.

Hyperscale data centers are at the forefront of cloud computing and data management services for organizations that need to process large amounts of data and storage with a supporting infrastructure to match known as hyperscale computing.

While the genesis of hyperscale computing started with the need to develop and implement technological advancements such as IoT (Internet of Things) and analyzing vast amounts of data, the advent of AI (artificial intelligence) has resulted in increased computing demands by corporations across the world. This increase in computing demand has resulted in increased power consumption and the demand for power is constantly increasing.

When we assess the power needs of a hyperscale data center, a smaller hyperscale data center requires an average of 20 – 40 mW (megawatts) of power per data center, equating to 10 kW to 20 kW (kilowatts) per rack, while larger hyperscale data centers require much more power, and this number is only expected to increase.

As energy demands continue to increase and data center operations reach increasingly larger scales, the possibility of load losses due to constrained power grids are expected to increase as well.

Providing Data Center Redundancy with Backup Generators

When it comes to data centers of any kind, redundancy is vital in order to ensure that there is minimal to no downtime, mitigate any potential startup issues, file corruption, or loss of information being processed in real-time.

Depending on what tier your data center is classified at, there are different requirements in redundancy needed in regards to backup power systems. Data centers, including hyperscale data centers use a variety of backup power systems such as UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supplies) and backup generators in order to minimize any downtime due to loss of power to the main grid.

Woodstock Power Company supplies backup generators in both diesel and natural gas configurations to help keep data centers, including colocations and hyperscale data centers running even when the power goes out.
