NTT Data Announces Japanese Green Data Center
June 26, 2008 — (GREEN DATA CENTER INFO) — NTT Data Corp (nttdata.co.jp) announced plans of building a green data center with a DC power system, which will be available for use starting in October, reported Tech-On this week.
The Japanese company unveiled this announcement at GridWorld 2008 (idg.co.jp/expo/grid/english/), which ran June 24-25 at Tokyo International Forum.
The DC power system is a technology utilized to minimize power loss by reducing the number of times of AC-DC/DC-AC conversion. Currently, uninterruptible power supply systems (UPS) used at data centers are driven by a direct current. AC-DC and DC-AC conversions are repeated for a minimum of three times, including conversion, inside the server machine before driving the microprocessor.
