What are Civo's 40 UK edge data centres?

When people hear that Civo is building a gigawatt of AI capacity in the UK, they usually picture one thing. A vast campus in a field somewhere. Hundreds of thousands of GPUs under one roof. The kind of site that gets announced with a ministerial visit and a five-year timeline. We are doing the opposite. We are building 40 data centres, spread across the country, each one close to the people and organizations that will use it. On 22 September we unveiled the first one, in Hertfordshire.

Survey: How Much Do Data Center Managers Trust Their Data? And Where Can They Improve?

Data center decisions are only as reliable as the information behind them. An asset inventory can accurately describe the equipment it records while still omitting assets that have not been documented. Power readings can be current for monitored equipment while other gaps go unnoticed. And when infrastructure data is spread across disconnected systems, getting a complete picture becomes harder.

Hyperview DCIM 5.7 Software Release

Hyperview 5.7 is here! See what's new in this release: formula-based Custom Sensors, a Network Path view for circuits, and temperature heat maps for racks and floor plans. WHAT'S NEW IN HYPERVIEW 5.7 Custom Sensors: Create numeric sensors calculated from a formula that uses other sensors as inputs. Manage them from the new Assets → Custom Sensors page. Connectivity Visualization (Phase 1): The new Network Path tab on circuits shows the assets and connections that make up each circuit. Select any asset or connection for details, and export the path as a JPG, PDF or PNG.

The hidden cost of IT sprawl: how fragmented infrastructure drains business performance

Most IT estates grow through years of individual decisions instead of a single plan. A cloud account gets opened for one project. A data centre contract stays in place because switching is a migration project the business keeps deferring. Those choices get made workload by workload, and the estate that results rarely holds together as one plan.

Data Center Rack Density Just Crossed 11kW. Do You Have the Tools and Data to Keep Up?

Uptime Institute's Global Data Center Survey 2026 found that the average modal rack density exceeded 11 kW in 2026, up from 9 kW in 2025. “Modal rack density” means the rack density that is most common within a data center. Arguably, the more important trend is that rack densities are becoming more varied, with more facilities supporting a mix of conventional and high-density racks.

AI at scale: are your foundations ready?

What does it take to move from AI experimentation to real-world adoption, and where does sovereign AI fit into the picture? In Episode 2 of Season 2 of Perspectives from the Edge, Andrew Dutton,Enterprise Sales & Marketing Director at SCC, joins Pulsant’s Wendy Shearer to explore the challenges businesses are facing as AI moves from experimentation into production and scale.

Canada Data Center Development: Measuring Responsible AI Growth

Western Canada is becoming a live test of whether sovereign AI capacity can be built responsibly at scale, and the answer will depend less on what operators promise than on what they can measure and show. Meta’s planned C$13-billion Alberta data center, BCE’s expansion of its Saskatchewan project to a 1.2-GW hub, and the federal Responsible Data Centre Development Principles all point to the same requirement: operational transparency that regulators, utilities, and communities can verify.
