The UK has about 1.59GW of currently installed datacentre capacity at just under 190 sites. If we add existing capacity to that which is planned to complete by 2030 and which has planning consent, we get 4.9GW.

We are making sure that we have renewable energy powering all of our datacentre footprint. We have 100% renewable power today that is powering all of Azure, and we're very proud to build that base and essentially stimulate renewable energy around the world and in the UK.

AI Armor provides dynamic runtime security and relies on a central policy engine in the Universal Management Suite (UMS) to meet compliance requirements, ensuring that organizations can manage their security effectively.

It was the time of Novell networks, RG58 cables, and bulky tower PCs. It was also a time before the telemarketer's IT department employed specialists. Carter and his two colleagues - boss Mike and part-time student Stefan - therefore handled tasks ranging from programming to support, and everything in between.

CloudBolt's survey also examined how respondents are migrating workloads off of VMware. Currently, 36 percent of participants said they migrated 1-24 percent of their environment off of VMware. Another 32 percent said that they have migrated 25-49 percent; 10 percent said that they've migrated 50-74 percent of workloads; and 2 percent have migrated 75 percent or more of workloads. Five percent of respondents said that they have not migrated from VMware at all.

Constructing datacenters accounts for 39 percent of their total carbon dioxide emissions, almost as much as operating them, according to an environmental analysis covering the entire lifecycle of a facility. The finding comes from a white paper published by European datacenter operator Data4, which conducted a lifecycle assessment (LCA) of one of its own facilities with the assistance of design and engineering consultants APL Data Center.

Vertiv has announced new configurations of its MegaMod HDX solution, a prefabricated power and liquid cooling infrastructure designed for environments with very high power densities. The solution is intended for applications such as artificial intelligence and high-performance computing and is available in North America and the EMEA region. According to Vertiv, the new variants respond to the rapidly growing demand for computing power and associated cooling capacity in data centers.

A North American manufacturer spent most of 2024 and early 2025 doing what many innovative enterprises did: aggressively standardizing on the public cloud by using data lakes, analytics, CI/CD, and even a good chunk of ERP integration. The board liked the narrative because it sounded like simplification, and simplification sounded like savings. Then generative AI arrived, not as a lab toy but as a mandate. "Put copilots everywhere," leadership said. "Start with maintenance, then procurement, then the call center, then engineering change orders."
