It can process more than 4 million high-definition photos in 30 seconds! The world's first commercial submarine data center core equipment "submarine data cabin" was launched

After successful installation and commissioning, the first phase of the world’s first commercial submarine data center project will be completed.

As the "base" of Internet services, data centers are mainly used for storage, computing and information processing.

The installation of the world’s largest undersea data cabin can not only store data, but is also an undersea “supercomputer”. It is equivalent to 60,000 traditional computers working online at the same time. , can process more than 4 million high-definition photos in 30 seconds.

According to the project leader, the commercial undersea data center uses gravity heat pipe technology and uses seawater as a natural cold source, achieving an overall energy efficiency improvement of 40% to 60%.

The world’s first commercial submarine data center project plans to deploy 100 cabins. After the construction is completed, compared with the traditional land-based data center of the same size, it will save annual The total electricity consumption was 122 million kilowatt hours, the construction land area was saved by 68,000 square meters, and the fresh water was saved by 105,000 tons.

By placing the server in a data cabin on the seabed, using the ocean as a natural cold source, it saves electricity, does not require fresh water, saves land resources, has high security, high computing power, and rapid deployment. advantages.

Undersea data centers use seawater to achieve natural cooling throughout the year, reducing energy consumption. At the same time, liquid cooling technology can also be used to increase server density and increase computing power.

It is also far away from human activity areas, providing a stable environment for server work, and achieving a dust-free and oxygen-free environment to further protect the server Electronic devices reduce failures and have a design life of 25 years.
