The landscape of fire protection in data centres has evolved significantly in recent years, with more advanced technologies and methodologies being deployed and managed. Now, there is a whole new generation of fire protection systems in play to protect data halls and computer rooms, and infrastructure such as switch rooms, power distribution units, generators, UPS rooms and other areas within data centres.
As business needs evolve and expand, companies are demanding more from their data centres and are upscaling, retrofitting and optimising existing centre space. Many businesses are re-evaluating their needs and are looking for dependable fire protection solutions that use the latest technologies in an environment they can trust.
