More cloud - less power and water
OVHcloud, which has deployed its proprietary water-cooling technology at scale since 2003 and whose services run more than 43 data centres globally, says it has already achieved a lower PUE – averaging 1.26 across its fleet. The key, says Maiolo, lies in OVHcloud's approach to cooling: tackling heat directly at the server component rather than chilling the entire room. 'Instead of using traditional air-conditioning, we use a proprietary water-cooled 'thermoblock' that sits directly on heat-generating components like the chip,' he says. 'The water runs in a closed loop, cooling the component without evaporating. This means we use a fraction of the water of traditional evaporative systems.' That engineering distinction has yielded outsized results. OVHcloud's water usage effectiveness (WUE) stands at 0.37 – 5 times less water usage than our competitors – a significant benefit in water-stressed regions like Southeast Asia. It's also had a downstream impact on footprint and density. With no need for wide air gaps between servers, OVHcloud says it can stack more computing capacity into a smaller area, improving resource utilisation while reducing land and materials use. Beyond efficiency, the company also touts its vertically integrated supply chain as a sustainability advantage. Unlike many operators who buy and deploy pre-assembled servers, OVHcloud manufactures its own racks and cooling components in facilities in France and Canada. That allows for tighter control over design, logistics and re-use. 'When a server reaches end-of-life, it's not discarded,' Maiolo says. 'We bring it back to our factories, dismantle it, and recover anything that can be re-used. It's a closed-loop approach.' That ethos has led the company to set ambitious targets: zero waste to landfill by 2025, Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions reduction by 73.4 per cent by the same year, and Scope 3 emissions reduction by 52 per cent by 2030. OVHcloud, meanwhile, insists that sustainability does not have to come at a cost. 'There's a perception that doing the right thing has to be expensive,' Maiolo says. 'But because we use less power, less water, and make more efficient use of space, we're actually able to deliver a strong performance-to-price ratio. It's not an either-or: our customers get the best of both worlds.' That cost-benefit equation may prove pivotal as companies weigh cloud strategies under growing ESG scrutiny. 'The reality is that businesses still need to meet performance expectations and show fiscal responsibility to shareholders,' Maiolo says. 'With our model, they don't have to compromise on either.' Broader industry efforts are also gaining momentum. The Climate Neutral Data Centre Pact, an initiative co-founded by OVHcloud and backed by the European Commission, commits operators across Europe to achieving carbon neutrality by 2030. Targets include a PUE of 1.3 for new data centres in warm climates, matching 100 per cent of electricity demand with renewables by 2030, and ensuring that all used servers are assessed for re-use or recycling. The pact, which counts more than 100 signatories, signals a growing recognition that data centre sustainability needs collective action – not just innovation by individual providers. 'As workloads surge with AI, digital infrastructure has to scale responsibly,' said the Pact in a recent white paper. 'Efficiency, circularity and transparency will be critical for aligning the cloud with Europe's climate goals.' That transparency extends to measurement, too. OVHcloud now offers customers a carbon calculator that breaks down emissions by server type, location and usage – a tool Maiolo says is proving useful for enterprises reporting on their own ESG metrics. While much of the attention remains on headline tech trends, Maiolo believes sustainability will soon become a key differentiator in cloud procurement. 'It's already happening in markets like Singapore, where regulation is tight and resources are finite,' he says. 'But increasingly, we're seeing that sustainability is not a nice-to-have – it's a business imperative.'

AMD launches EPYC 4005 Series for entry-level server market
AMD has introduced its EPYC 4005 Series processors, targeting the entry-level server market with new offerings based on its 'Zen 5' architecture. The EPYC 4005 Series is designed for small businesses and hosted IT service providers, aiming to deliver enterprise-grade features while focusing on affordability and reduced deployment complexity. AMD has positioned the range as an option for those seeking performance, dependability, and efficiency within budget constraints. The processors make use of the AM5 socket, which is also employed in the existing EPYC 4004 Series, allowing for deployment in a variety of form factors including servers, blades, and towers. The company has highlighted that the new solutions strip away what it describes as "unnecessary features and complexity," in a bid to control costs for enterprise customers at the entry level. In testing performed using the Phoronix suite, AMD reports that the EPYC 4565P 16-core processor outperformed the top-of-stack 6th generation Intel Xeon 6300P by approximately 1.83 times according to AMD's own benchmarking data. Derek Dicker, Corporate Vice President of the Enterprise and HPC Business Group at AMD, said: "Growing businesses and dedicated hosters often face significant constraints around budget, complexity, and deployment timelines." "With the latest AMD EPYC 4005 Series CPUs, we are delivering the right balance of performance, simplicity, and affordability, giving our customers and system partners the ability to deploy enterprise-class solutions that solve everyday business challenges." The EPYC 4005 Series launches with broad partner support, with server, cloud, and hardware vendors such as Altos, ASRock Rack, Gigabyte, Lenovo, MiTAC, MSI, New Egg, OVHcloud, Supermicro, and Vultr participating in the rollout. Senthil Reddy, Executive Director of Product Management for Infrastructure Solutions Group at Lenovo, commented: "With AMD EPYC 4005 Series processors, Lenovo is providing tailored solutions that prepare small businesses for the AI era." "Together, we're enabling cost-effective, reliable systems that provide enterprise-class features for growing businesses." Yaniv Fdida, Chief Product and Technology Officer of OVHcloud, stated: "The AMD EPYC 4005 Series CPUs deliver the compute performance and energy efficiency that our customers have come to expect, in a streamlined platform that supports cost-effective, always-on services. Coupled with OVHcloud's Open and Trusted Cloud infrastructure, these solutions provide outstanding performance price ratio and scalability for innovative and demanding workloads." Vik Malyala, President and Managing Director EMEA and SVP, Technology & AI at Supermicro, added: "We're excited to expand our portfolio with systems powered by AMD EPYC 4005 Series processors, bringing new levels of value to customers seeking efficient, cost-optimized performance. From our 3U MicroCloud multi-node platforms to our 1U and 2U mainstream server families, these solutions offer a compelling mix of performance, power efficiency, and deployment flexibility. With support for technologies like PCIe 5.0 and DDR5 memory, we're enabling IT administrators to deliver more services at lower latency." J.J. Kardwell, CEO of Vultr, also commented: "Vultr is pleased to announce the immediate availability of Bare Metal and Cloud Compute instances featuring AMD EPYC 4005 Series processors." "The AMD EPYC 4005 Series provides straightforward deployment, scalability, high clock speed, energy efficiency, and best-in-class performance. Whether you are a business striving to scale reliably or a developer crafting the next groundbreaking innovation, these solutions are designed to deliver exceptional value and meet demanding requirements now and in the future."
