De Novo DC

The total area of De Novo DC makes 2117 m2 at the total power consumption of 3.3 MW. The data center will enable accommodating more than 200 rack panels ready for installation of high density computation equipment. Minimum load can make up to 15 kW per panel. Rack panels will be accommodated in 31 shielded modules with fire resistance level of 1 hour in open flames. Connection with the DC will be ensured by 2 independent fiber optic communication channels laid along independent routes. The total throughput rate of these channels will make 640 Gb/s. The heat generated by the equipment will be securely absorbed by liquid cooling system utilizing Free Cooling – an advanced "green" technology.

The foundation stones of De Novo DC engineering infrastructure are:
Uninterruptible cooling system with two independent supply lines
High precision conditioners with dynamic refrigerating capacity change functionality
Free Cooling technology
Two independent groups of high efficient UPS (with output-input ratio up to 95%)
Diesel power station comprising 4 diesel generators with backing-up
Two independent high voltage power inputs
Control system of physical access to the modules
Individual automatic gas fire extinguishing system in each module
Centralized monitoring and dispatching system
24-hour 3-shift dispatcher service
Readiness of the infrastructure for the application of Enterprise class equipment and high density computations.
De Novo DC will be divided into modules of two types: Small – S-modules, and big – L-modules. They will differ in the number of server panels and, correspondingly, energy share.

Yet, the small module is not as small as it may seem at first sight, since the server racks contained therein may comprise
384 x86/x64 cores or 64 RISC cores
1800 GB RAM
32 TB of operative disk space
32 TB of archival disk space
Tape library
LAN/SAN infrastructure.
