Vertiv has introduced the SmartAisle 3, a micro modular data centre system that utilises AI to boost operational efficiency.

The SmartAisle 3 is available in Southeast Asia, Australia and New Zealand, and can be configured up to 120 kW of total IT capacity.

The SmartAisle 3 is a fully-integrated data centre ecosystem comprising racks, UPS, thermal management and monitoring, and physical security. It features AI functionality to help optimise the operational and energy efficiency of the micro data centre, with a self-learning function that can intelligently monitor and adjust temperature depending on the operating environment.

“As demand for data-intensive applications continues to rapidly grow, many businesses are requiring their data centre infrastructure to be deployed quickly and efficiently, and to be as scalable as possible. Vertiv enriched the Vertiv SmartAisle 3 with AI features to help our customers simplify their data centre operations, so they can have greater flexibility in their business operation and to help them achieve their energy efficiency goals,” said Cheehoe Ling, vice president, product management at Vertiv Asia.

“The speed at which AI is evolving not only demands a workforce that is technically proficient but also a digital economy built on infrastructure designed to scale,” added Faraz Ali, Product Manager IMS at Vertiv Australia and New Zealand.

“By integrating AI directly into data centre operations, we’re giving businesses across Australia and New Zealand the opportunity to keep up with their AI ambitions. The new system’s automated intelligence makes light work of balancing critical infrastructure at optimum energy efficiency and power resilience, offering time back to critical talent, while promoting scalability as workload requirements expand.”
