Abstract

The BodenType Data Center One has been operational since January 2019. The data center has 3 PODS which are configured with slight variations in the fresh air-based cooling systems. The datasets that have been collected since operation commenced in PODs 1 and 3 with the operational period from the perspective of data collection using the database system and DCIM system installed and described in D5.1 being from 5th March 2019 to 2nd March 2020 inclusive, so 52 weeks, 364 days and 8,736 hours. The datasets for POD 1 comprehensively include energy, temperature, relative humidity, fan speeds, average server chip temperatures, average server fan speeds, percentage server utilization and dew point. The POD 3 datasets include average server power consumption and percentage fan speeds, but the period of operation is shorter than POD 1, being only from 26th April 2019 to 24th February 2020 inclusive. The data set also includes weather data over the full 364-day period. Two sets of data are to be made available. The first is an excel spreadsheet with the finest time resolution being for hourly averaged data, but the data is for all 364 days, so 8,736 hours. The second data set is the full data collected during the 9 sets of 5-day test campaigns and a further 9 sets of 6-day test campaigns with a resolution of measured data values being between 15 and 30 seconds resulting in a large data set.
