The Rise of AI and the Data Centre Challenge

The rapid growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) is transforming the data centre industry. As AI workloads continue to increase, data centres are facing new challenges in terms of power, cooling, and scalability. The traditional data centre design is no longer sufficient to support the unique requirements of AI workloads, which demand high-performance computing, low latency, and high-density storage. To address these challenges, data centre providers must adopt innovative solutions that prioritise flexibility, scalability, and sustainability.

Case Study

Complex 90MW Data Centre Deployment

Our European hyperscale client needed to expand their data centre infrastructure due to high demand. They had to install over 7500 active devices per month in a new Nordic 90MW data centre, ensuring continuous service for customers.

We implemented a cost-effective, flexible deployment programme with asset management workflow for real-time progress visibility. We secured a 5000 sqm lease in an integration warehouse for storage and assembly and developed a budget-conscious resourcing and execution strategy.

Providing an end-to-end service with a single point of contact and contract, we eliminated the need for multiple sub-contractors or direct hires. Our solution met all client targets and created a replicable blueprint for future growth.
