Centres. It’ s a pleasure to be editing this established magazine, where within its pages we learn more about the changes happening within the data centre industry and the latest innovations and partnerships.

On the front cover of this month’ s magazine, we feature Simon Taylor, Chairman and Co-founder at n2s / Bioscope. The technology supply chain, including equipment manufacturers and the data centre industry, is a major contributor to the problem of electronic waste. Taylor is working to solve that problem. In this interview, he talks about how his company has developed an end-to-end, patented biochemical process and the importance of keeping valuable resources in the UK. Turn to page 14 to read more.

We also have an Intelligent Technology section on page 28, a round-up from our regions on page 33 and from pages 41 to 46, a snapshot of content from our vertical IT publications.

I hope you enjoy this issue and if you would like to feature, please do email rebecca. miles @ intelligentglobalmedia. com

We explore Total Cost of Ownership with Pierre Ecuyer, Director of Critical Power Services, Legrand, from page 23. Ecuyer explains how the accelerating demands of AI and high-density workloads are fundamentally shifting the data centre’ s baseline for TCO and sustainability. Legrand’ s Keor FLEX platform leverages Silicon Carbide technology for unprecedented efficiency and power density, while its modular design ensures flexible,‘ pay-as-you-grow’ scalability.

AI is reshaping the future of data centres. With workloads scaling at unprecedented levels, traditional storage is no longer enough. In the article from page 35, VDURA CEO Ken Claffey explains why durability, lifecycle management and resilience are critical to the next wave of Digital Transformation and how organisations can prepare for AI’ s growing demands.
