Case Study: windCORES achieves centralized monitoring and high availability for turbine-based data centers with Paessler PRTG

windCORES monitors 180 wind turbines with PRTG

windCORES, a German company operating in the energy and IT sectors, builds data centers directly inside wind turbines. Their challenge was monitoring this geographically distributed and decentralized infrastructure to ensure high availability and security for their cloud and colocation customers. Without a centralized solution, detecting and resolving faults at any remote turbine site would be difficult and slow.

Paessler AG addressed this challenge with its PRTG monitoring solution. PRTG provides centralized visibility by monitoring the entire infrastructure at each turbine, including power, cooling, access control, and network components. It continuously verifies inter-site connections for redundancy and provides customers with a real-time dashboard for their services. This allows windCORES to proactively prevent errors and guarantee availability across its fleet of green data centers.
