Race to ROI

Game-changing strategies to generate revenue

With the rising production and consumption of data, the demand for data centers is increasing. Colocation data centers that can be developed faster than the conventional build times have an opportunity to realize ROI sooner than ever. But how can data center facilities be built faster than the usual 18 - 24 months?

In this white paper, ABB experts reveal 4 strategies to cut deployment time by up to 50%. This allows operators to meet the growing demands in record time because they deploy faster while upholding a high standard of construction quality.

With downtime costs reported as approaching $350,000 per hour, the need for continuous, quality power is paramount. Given this, how can an owner improve the efficiency of an existing data center? There are several ways to do this. The IT portion of the data center is typically refreshed, or upgraded, every three-to-five years, but power systems are part of capital equipment and are on a longer refresh cycle, which makes efficiency gains on the power side more difficult to come by.
