The CSRD marks a paradigm shift from preceding directives, introducing stringent reporting standards aimed at enhancing the quality, comprehensiveness, and consistency of sustainability reporting. Unlike its predecessors, the CSRD mandates specific disclosure formats and standards, emphasizing the concept of “double materiality” – requiring companies to address both their environmental impacts and climate-related risks comprehensively.

The Environmental and Efficiency Benefits of Liquid Cooling Data centers are infamous for their voracious appetite for energy. As the digital universe expands, so does the environmental impact of maintaining these centers. Enter liquid cooling, a technology with the potential to slash energy consumption and reduce the carbon footprint of data centers. Liquid cooling offers superior thermal conductivity compared to air.

Traditionally, data centers have been managed using on-premises software – and for many companies, this solution has been sufficient. However, as the data center environment becomes more intricate and dynamic, a new approach to management is required. Cloud-based Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software has emerged as the next generation of management tools, offering unmatched flexibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness.

The evolution of public cloud over the past few years has been remarkable. Digital transformation, remote work, and AI have created breakneck growth. Back in 2018, before anyone uttered the words COVID or ChatGPT, there were already big drivers for public cloud. The global digital transformation market size was valued at $320 billion, and set for 18% annual growth, to reach a projected $695 billion by 2025.

Version 4.3 is packed with upgrades to enhance data center monitoring. Improvements in Connectivity, Alarm Event Management, and Notifications aim to boost your experience, offering customizable alarm settings, reducing email volume, and integrating seamlessly with MS Teams for alerts.

The capability of DCIM software to provide real-time monitoring is critical for timely issue detection and resolution. Considering that data center outages can cost more than $9,000 per minute, as highlighted in a Ponemon Institute study, the importance of immediate response facilitated by DCIM cannot be overstated.

In the dynamic landscape of data center management, staying ahead of regulatory changes is paramount. As the push for sustainability intensifies, European data center professionals are facing a new challenge in the form of Regulation 2023/1542. This regulation mandates reporting on battery recycling by mid-2025. Let's delve into what this means for data centers and how you can prepare.

Europe is currently striving to be the first climate neutral continent by introducing a package of policy initiatives called the European Union’s (EU) Green Deal. This deal was introduced in 2019 and focuses on reducing greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels. The Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) was also launched which aims to decrease energy usage by 11.7% by 2030.
