Description:
Huawei says it can construct a highly efficient new data center in six to
nine months.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Chinese telecoms giant Huawei wants in on the data center construction business, and claims it can build them significantly faster than the competition.

According to The Register , the company recently took to local social media
to distribute an advertising video, which shows shipping container-sized modules being stacked into a larger building, in a fashion similar to how
Lego bricks are assembled.

The offering is called Next-Generation Data Center Facility, and apparently, Huawei can get a new facility up and running within six to nine months, instead of the usual 18. Better cooling with AI

The company also promises better server efficiency courtesy of advanced cooling, an important factor for all data center operators, from web hosting and VPN vendors to cloud giants.

With the help of automation, as well as AI-powered optimization tools, Huawei promises a more fine-tuned cooling. It also claims to have created a simpler power supply, whose delivery deadline is two weeks, rather than two months.

Simplified cooling maximizes heat exchange efficiency by changing multiple heat exchanges to one heat exchange, and shortening the cooling link, Huawei said. Read more

How can businesses create greener data centers?

Whether or not Huawei products are mandatory in these facilities remains to
be seen, The Register added. The publication also reminds that the countrys government plans on relocating five million data center racks westwards, and should Huawei nab just a fifth of that business, it can expect to be building some 1,000 new data centers.

While the company may not have much trouble selling its business
domestically, there is a whole different story on an international level.
