Here’s a look at a company that makes racks and enclosures and has expanded into the modular data center market. The UK-based
Cannon Technologies makes the
T4 Modular Data Center [1], a modular unit that can be deployed either indoors or outdoors and configured to the needs of military or enterprise users. The modules can include aisle containment (referred to as “cocooning” in the video) and use in-row cooling units to manage high-density workloads. This video, which reviews the T4 unit’s capabilities, runs about 4 minutes.
