As cooling demands surge with the rise of AI, GPU-intensive workloads, and high-density environments, traditional data center cooling approaches are falling short. Forward-looking operators now recognise that intelligent thermal optimisation, powered by AI and real-time data, is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity.
One compelling case is Everest Digital, Brazil’s first Tier III-certified Managed Services Provider in the Midwest region. This state-of-the-art data center partnered with EkkoSense to embed AI-driven thermal management from the design phase, yielding measurable gains in energy efficiency, sustainability, and operational intelligence.
Key Takeaway: 28kW Cooling Energy Reduction from Day One
By implementing EkkoSoft Critical, Everest Digital achieved a 28kW reduction in cooling energy usage, translating to immediate cost savings and environmental benefits. This wasn’t a post-launch retrofit—it was strategic integration from the ground up.
The platform’s real-time monitoring of thousands of thermal data points, paired with machine learning algorithms and an intuitive 3D interface, gave operators unmatched visibility into temperature distribution and airflow performance.
“Today, we operate with technical excellence, thermal efficiency, and environmental responsibility — a direct result of the operational maturity we’ve achieved with EkkoSense.”
— Gisele Santos, Head of Data Center Infrastructure, Everest Digital
Eliminating Overcooling with Precision AI Control
One of the most costly inefficiencies in data center operations is overcooling. Everest’s team used EkkoSoft Critical’s Cooling Advisor to dynamically adjust airflow and eliminate energy waste, ensuring cold air is delivered exactly where needed and not wasted in low-density areas.
This precise targeting also helps protect critical assets, improve rack-level temperature stability, and extend equipment lifespan by reducing thermal stress.
From Digital Twin to Expansion Readiness
Capacity planning is often reactive in traditional setups. EkkoSoft Critical changes that. Everest used its Digital Twin simulation tools to project and plan for future expansion—optimising power, cooling, and space usage before deployment. The result: reduced risk of capacity bottlenecks and more efficient use of real estate.
Additionally, the Estate Dashboard provides operators with clear, consolidated visibility over thermal hotspots, underutilised zones, and potential risks—supporting faster, data-driven decisions.
ESG Reporting That’s Actually Automated and Auditable
With sustainability rising on the priority list for stakeholders and regulators, Everest benefited from fully automated ESG reporting using the EkkoSoft Critical platform. This enabled them to:
- Track carbon footprint reduction linked directly to cooling system improvements;
- Generate auditable reports for compliance, audits, and investor transparency;
- Demonstrate alignment with green data center standards and operational excellence.
This approach aligns with circular economy principles—minimising energy consumption and extending the lifespan of cooling equipment, fans, and IT hardware.
“Efficiency has become routine, and sustainability has become a deliverable — not just a message.”
— Gisele Santos
