The Pirbright Institute Prefabricated Data Centre Deployment

Advanced Power Technology transform The Pirbright Institute’s data centre to fast-track advanced viral research. 

The Pirbright Institute is a world-leading centre of excellence for research into the control and surveillance of virus diseases of farm animals, and viruses that spread from animals to humans.

Advanced Power Technology worked with The Pirbright Institute to developed a new modular data centre to meet the Institute’s requirement for a scalable, resilient, flexible, and energy efficient infrastructure, while ensuring the highest levels of availability and continuity.

DOWNLOAD THE CASE STUDY

“The new data centre provides a dedicated, and world-class IT function that allows The Pirbright Institute to compete for ground-breaking research projects on a global basis. Its scalable, modular architecture, and its N+1 configuration also provides the highest levels of availability, resiliency and efficiency. Working with APT and Schneider Electric, has created a solid IT foundation to develop ground-breaking research for decades to come.”

Tim Haywood - IT infrastructure manager at The Pirbright Institute

Goal

Transform The Pirbright Institute’s data centre to fast-track advanced viral research and accelerate ground-breaking scientific collaboration .

Story

Seeking a new strategy to modernise its IT and legacy comms rooms and deploy them away from its existing buildings, a suggestion was made to explore the benefits of a modular, containerised data centre solution.

Solution

The containerised data centre also includes complete monitoring and management systems, delivered via Schneider Electric EcoStruxure IT Expert data centre infrastructure management (DCIM) software. This is supported by Netbotz environmental monitoring, with over 60 data parameters measured and managed.

Results

Dedicated, world-class IT facilities, enabling the Institute to compete for new investments and ground- breaking research projects.
Scalable, N+1, modular data centre solution providing the highest levels of availability, resiliency and efficiency
