A data centre can be just one single module, containing 35 racks, or a giant mega data centre of 100:s of modules. The business model is to be able...
The large MDC M1 Program / november 9
This is a presentation (including prices) for a 60 Megawatt server farm. We can deploy 100 M1 Modules with 3500 racks.
