Humanity has never been more reliant on the Internet and by association, data centers.

As the global pandemic pushed more users online, the world’s reliance on digital tools for remote working, learning and entertainment increased and the demand for cloud services grew in accordance. Data center construction projects worldwide have since been accelerated by cloud service providers and data center owner operators alike as they seek to build capacity at pace to meet customer needs.

In episode one of CyrusOne Connects, we are privileged to welcome Eric Schwartz, CEO and Brian Doricko, Vice President of Strategic Sales at CyrusOne, to the podcast.

Guided by our Host, Matthew Pullen, EVP & MD Europe at CyrusOne, Eric shares his perspective on the major opportunities and challenges facing the data center industry today. He delves into how continued demand has affected capacity, speed, and performance, as well as the impact of rising costs and inflation on the industry’s ability to meet demand.

Brian follows and leaves no stone unturned in a truly fascinating discussion about the evolution of data centers and networks to deliver against increased demand.

In episode two we are thrilled to introduce Dr. David Kingham, a trained theoretical physicist and Executive Vice Chairman at Tokamak Energy, along with Tom Kingham, Director of Solutions Engineering at CyrusOne, to the podcast.

Guided by our Host, Matthew Pullen, EVP & MD Europe at CyrusOne, we explore how Tokamak Energy is leading the race against time to replace worldwide reliance on fossil fuels by developing technology capable of recreating the energy that powers the sun, and in doing so create the world’s ultimate sustainable source of energy – FUSION. We seek to demystify the science and explain what needs to happen to make fusion energy a globally available and secure resource for the world’s energy needs.

With Tom, we go on to discuss and relate the impact and importance of fusion for the data center industry and what it needs to do to ensure widespread adoption and answer the ultimate question, ‘Is fusion the only true sustainable energy solution for the data center industry?’
