Data center is the implementation of hardware, software technology and storage systems accumulated in a specified location to provide consumers with server storage systems of their organizations. Data center is an universally accepted term for organization of storage servers, computer systems providing different functioning depending on their architecture and tasking.
On the basis of their tasks, data center are segregated into various types with each type designed for different business models. These different categories of data centers are built on different architectural models and are therefore present their own unique issues to the users. The most common issues of data centers are an increase in the levels of power consumption due to the focus on achieving high efficiency of cooling mechanisms, requirement of a backup energy system in case of failure of primary energy systems and consistent reporting of data in storage servers. All of these issues can be resolved with the help of a unified solution adoption, i.e. “Hyperscale Data Centers”.
Hyperscale data center is not just the implementation of larger resources in a computing architecture; rather it is achieving scalability of the computing resources enhancing the ability of computing in the network. This is achieved through different types of mechanisms, such as constructing a robust infrastructure model based on the distribution of storage solutions. Commonly, one of the major developments of this infrastructural model is combining all of the storage mechanisms in one, namely cloud and big data/distributed storage. Commonly, various enterprises define hyperscale data centers as being spread over a surface area of more than 10,000 square feet and consisting of at least 5,000 servers.
Hyperscale data centers are designed to remove the issues associated with the conventional data centers such as:
- Cooling Efficiency: Hyperscale data centers help enterprises/organizations remove or reduce the problem of climate controlling in the computing infrastructure. This is achieved with the help of introducing partitions between high-intensity workload servers and low-intensity workload servers. The requirement of high-intensity workloads to have higher effectiveness in cooling systems and optimizing the airflow in these servers so that the heat is recycled and reintroduced after it has been cooled
- Backup power source: Due to the availability of significant real-estate infrastructure with these data centers, they can afford to have greater resources of energy and power generation. Therefore, the issue with having a backup power source for the optimal generation and optimization of limited energy
Also, one of the major uses of hyperscale data centers is balancing the workload between the different servers of a single enterprise/organization so that one particular server is not overworked and the performance levels are optimized.
The functionalities of hyperscale data centers are much more modern and technologically advanced due to their large-scale investing. This is because of the availability of higher storage sizes distributed across cloud, distributed storage/big data and physical hardware. This results in greater effectiveness of resources as the combination works together to promote the performance of computing infrastructure already available.
