DataSite Orlando Uses Vette Cooling Solutions

By Justin Lee, July 09, 2009

(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Data center operator DataSite Orlando (www.datasiteorlando.com) announced on Thursday it has partnered with Vette (www.vettecorp.com) to provide customers with data center cooling solutions.

Vette's LiquiCool systems will significantly decrease DataSite Orlando's footprint and energy consumption required to support its mid- to high-density blade servers and super computers.

The data center operator has a vast range of blade servers and IBM systems, which use up to 500 watts of power per square foot.

The company installed seven of Vette's LiquiCool Rear Door Heat Exchangers, which will help to reduce its data center footprint by 80 percent, from 3,000 to 600 square feet.

"With Vette's efficient liquid cooling solutions, we are providing a tremendous cost savings to our client while protecting their critical IT infrastructure, all while reducing cooling energy consumption and carbon footprint – a win for everyone," says Rob Wilson, director of sales and marketing for DataSite Orlando.

Vette's LiquiCool Rear Door Heat Exchanger replaces the rear door of a new or existing equipment rack and uses advanced liquid cooling technology to remove hot air exiting server equipment before it enters the facility whitespace.

LiquiCool Rear Door Heat Exchangers provides high levels of energy efficiency by eliminating moving parts and fans.

DataSite Orlando features a chilled water distribution system with 2,750 tons of chiller capacity and more than 80 computer room air handler units.

The facility can locate the delivery of cold air to the exact floor tile and triple redundancy on the water supply ensures complete ventilation and heat rejection around the clock.

The data center, which began accommodating tenants in September, has 85,000 square-feet of fully customizable enterprise class data center space in wide-ranging sizes, multiple uninterruptable power supply systems, 24-hour security and surveillance, and biometrically-controlled access.

Earlier this year, the data center operator named Eric Blomquist its business development manager.

October 2009 - Web Hosting's All Star Team
This has been, for us, one of the most interesting, exciting and challenging build-ups to an issue of the magazine yet, Web Hosting's All Star Team. The balloting process was our first experiment with a kind of user participation we're planning to do a lot more with in the months to come. We had thousands of ballots submitted, with hundreds of write-in suggestions and a demonstration of user engagement that has us feeling super positive about the project.

July 2009 - What am I Worth?
One of the interesting luxuries of working on a project like the printed WHIR magazine is that it allows us to play with things like our point of view from one issue to the next. In recent months we've been giving added attention to the kind of practical and applicable advice aimed at smaller hosts and resellers. This issue carries on with that point of view, asking, in our cover story, "what am I worth?" It's a complicated question without a clear-cut answer.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through. We set out to assemble a blueprint for a small hosting business, but butted up pretty quickly against the general impossibility of covering all the territory that was out there to be covered. The basic constraints of a printed magazine, and the less-than-infinite amount of time we had available forced us to face the fact that we could never produce an exhaustive guide to starting a hosting company.
