Smart cooling strategies help data centers maintain 7x24 uptime, maximize energy efficiency, control overhead costs, and meet sustainability goals.
To reap these benefits, data center designers use what is often referred to as “free cooling.” It’s a method of cooling a building without using air conditioning when ambient temperatures are low enough. This reduces wear and tear on compressors and can save electricity. As with most things so named, though, it’s a misnomer — nothing is free.
