#converge data center

has announced that is set to start the construction of a PHP 1 billion data center in Cebu as it prepares to serve the surge in the data requirements in Visayas and Mindanao, as well as to aid its expansion in central and southern Philippines. "This data center is quite important especially for the Visayas as the demand for digital services and data requirements are going up. The data center will initially have 300 racks to cater to the demand and will be housed in a six-story building that will also have a customer contact center that will employ thousands of Cebuanos and Visayans. Converge will also offer data center services to enterprise clients such as network management services, multi-homed network, disaster recovery services, network redundancy solutions, 24/7 monitoring, co-location, and local connectivity. These new services are based on AI, big data, and cloud computing, all of which place higher requirements on data center interconnect (DCI). NVIDIA and Intel have announced a partnership focused on AI, data centers, and relative consumer products. Once Intel has developed the custom data center CPUs, NVIDIA will have servers capable of running complex AI models and cloud services. Once operational, it will deliver 50MW to the grid serving Google’s Tennessee and Alabama data centers.
