Inside the Brisbane iSeek data centre

Queensland Premier Anna Bligh has presided over the opening of a new $44 million, 2500 square metre data centre in Brisbane's airport precinct, which boasts free cooling and up to 20 kW per rack.

on Aug 17 2010 2:17PM

A look at the exterior of the facility.

The iseek data centre has been finished externally with a paneling system called Kingspan. Working in a similar way to panels in a cold room, the Kingspan system creates a thermal barrier and air pocket from the sun which reduces the thermal load and therefore increases cooling efficiency.
