PeaSoup has announced a collaboration with Midas Immersion Cooling, a manufacturer of liquid immersion cooling tanks, Centersquare, a global leader in data centre colocation and interconnection services, and Castrol, a global leader in lubricants and supplier of high-performance coolants. The collaboration aims to support the high-performance computing (HPC) landscape by delivering unparalleled performance with reduced energy usage.

“PeaSoup has always been at the forefront of developing sustainable and environmentally friendly cloud solutions,” said Martin Bradburn, CEO of PeaSoup. “This collaboration allows us to take a significant leap forward. By combining Midas’ innovative cooling technology with Centersquare’s global data centre footprint and Castrol’s high-performance coolants, we can empower businesses to achieve ground-breaking results while helping to reduce their environmental impact.”

Optimised Cooling for Demanding Applications

Traditionally, HPC has been synonymous with enormous energy consumption. Air-cooled data centres, the mainstay of the industry, struggle to keep pace with the ever-growing heat generated by powerful processors. This partnership directly addresses this challenge.

Midas’ immersion cooling tanks completely submerge servers in a specialist dielectric coolant. This coolant transfers heat away from the processors much more efficiently than air, enabling significant performance gains. Castrol’s high-performance coolants, specifically designed for this application, will further optimise heat transfer and system stability.

Centersquare Provides the Global Platform

Centersquare’s global network of data centres provides the ideal platform for deploying this ground-breaking technology. With a presence in key locations worldwide, Centersquare ensures that PeaSoup’s sustainable HPC solutions are accessible to businesses everywhere.

“We are thrilled to be a part of this initiative,” said Charlie Bernard, Director of Growth Strategy EMEA of Centersquare. “By providing our world-class colocation facilities, we can help PeaSoup deliver their innovative cloud solutions to a national and global audience.”

A More Sustainable Future for HPC

The collaboration between PeaSoup, Midas, Centersquare, and Castrol represents a significant step towards a more sustainable future for HPC. By enabling businesses to achieve peak performance while moving toward reducing their environmental footprint, this partnership paves the way for a new era of innovation and responsible computing.
