Data in our digital world has become an important part of our being. Now, the data centers housing servers that store data consume huge amounts of electricity. Hence, as the demand for digital services continues to rise, there is a growing need for sustainable energy solutions. In fact, the look out is for data centers that can be solely powered by renewable energy. Power demands and environmental impacts Historically, many data centers have been powered by fossil fuels, especially natural gas and coal. These energy sources, although reliable and cost-effective, are not sustainable in the long term due to their environmental impact, especially greenhouse gas emissions. According to secondary research, in 2020, data centers consumed around 1% of global electricity. However, this percentage is expected to rise with each passing year. Hence, efforts are being made to embrace sustainable energy solutions as much as possible to reduce the impact on climate change.

Cooling technology has evolved significantly in the last few years adding more value to energy-efficient cooling solutions. The fact that intelligent and energy-efficient systems have become the priority of many data centers and server facilities, reflects responsibility and sustainability for the future. Self-cooled server racks for the future data center cooling As an active part of innovative and sustainable initiatives, Netrack is one of the self-cooled server rack manufacturers who is a pro with intelligent cooling technologies. Netrack designed it by integrating efficient airflow, heat dissipation, and temperature control mechanisms to reduce dependence on external cooling infrastructure. The automated airflow systems mitigate the risk of overheating with real-time monitoring through sensors. Also, the built-in cooling mechanisms can adjust depending upon the temperature. Such cooling efficiency further improves the operational efficiency of the data center so that wastage can be minimized and operational cost can be reduced.

The world around us is changing rapidly since we now have entered the digital era - the time of growth and transformation. Our data centers too evolved with the growing demand for operational efficiency as well as managed noise levels. Need for controlling noise in the server rooms Noise beyond a certain level can adversely affect employee comfort, productivity, and overall focus. This makes it important to address the issue. Now, Netrack being an industry leader in innovative data center solutions understands the criticality of reducing noise in the server rooms. In fact, server rooms across all organizations are known to produce high level noise due to cooling systems, fans, and big equipment. Continuous exposure to such noise can lead to several health hazards for professionals working in that environment daily. One such health hazard due to prolonged exposure to noise is noise-induced hearing loss. Further, with long-term exposure it can permanently
