Delta helps universities improve capabilities in digital teaching
Text by DGC 2020/04

Delta teamed up with a well-known university in Zhejiang Province to create a highly integrated and scalable data center infrastructure solution that offers a reliable platform. To build a high-caliber institution, the platform aimed to support system operation of various modules, such as multi-media in teaching, smart campus, etc.

After taking careful consideration of the overall planning and requirements for data center provided by the university, Delta recommended its Dynamic Datacenter. Each Dynamic Datacenter contains 19 IT cabinets and 2 InfraSuite precision cooling RowCools, and is equipped with a set of DPH series modular UPSs. To achieve smart management, these facilities and IT equipment are integrated into the Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) system.

The DCIM system of the micro-module solution enables a central view to monitor the IT infrastructure and facility environments which are critical to the system operation. It is connected with the hardware and the software and can offers critical information to manage key operations for a data center. It can provide more information for the management staff to facilitate planning and forecast the probable demand in the future for the data centers.

In terms of energy-efficient design, Delta adopts the principle of green design in the deployment of its dynamic datacenter. The cabinet (in each raw of cabinet) air conditioners provide direct air supply near the heat source so that the air flow path is shorter and the cooling is more accurate, solving the problem of uneven distribution of hot spots. The cold aisles between the cabinets are closed and isolated, so that the hot and cold air flow do not interfere with each other, which prevents the heat island effect caused by the crosstalk of the air flow, as well as the loss of air volume and cold volume. Compared with the traditional data center, it delivers a better performance in energy efficiency.

At present, the new data center built by Delta has been officially put into use. Compared with other similar products on the market, the Micro Datacenter series provided by Delta enjoys the consistent stability, reliability and high performance which are the advantages shared by all of Delta's key infrastructure solutions. It also has the significant advantages of low-volume engineering, fast installation and high integrability, making it the best choice for an integrated on-campus data center and the result was well recognized by the university.
