A recent study highlights the advantage of self-powered big data centers. By equipping themselves to generate their own electricity, particularly during crises like heatwaves, these centers can become operational significantly faster than those solely dependent on traditional utility grid connections. This quicker startup time is crucial for maintaining data flow and critical services during emergencies when utility power may be unreliable or unavailable. The study underscores the resilience and efficiency benefits of independent power generation in supporting the vital infrastructure of big data.
