Case Study: Leading Asian E-commerce Company achieves rapid, BCA-compliant, cost-saving data centre deployment in Australia with Vertiv SmartRow

Leading Asian E-commerce Company - Customer Case Study

Leading Asian E-commerce Company, a top Asian online retailer with over 52 million customers, expanded into Australia and needed a cost-effective, efficient, flexible, and rapidly deployable data centre at its Homebush, Sydney site. The customer engaged Vertiv and evaluated Vertiv’s SmartRow™ offering to meet strict local requirements while avoiding solutions that would dump hot rack air into the warehouse environment.

Vertiv delivered the SmartRow™, a fully contained modular data centre that removed the need for a purpose-built room and addressed local temperature and safety concerns. The SmartRow™ met the Building Code of Australia by housing batteries in a fire-rated enclosure, reduced overall data-centre build costs, and — thanks to its compact, integrated design — went live on schedule, allowing the Leading Asian E-commerce Company to immediately serve customers and expand its local footprint.
