Data Centers: Smarter, Safer, and More Resilient

Contact Us

Experience the Power of Partnership

Our products and solutions are found in the most demanding data centers in the world. From the hidden danger of loud fire suppression discharges to the sustainable solution of free cooling, our portfolio of integrated solutions helps minimize costs, maximize efficiency, and optimize timing when speed matters.

In mission-critical environments, we know that reliable products and responsive service are everything.  We know it isn’t an option for your equipment to perform below expectations or for your security to be anything short of cutting edge. For data centers, your building is your product. We recognize this and take your mission seriously.

Data Deserves Dependability

In mission-critical environments, reliable products and responsive service are everything. Johnson Controls solutions and services enable building owners to lower the total cost of ownership in Data Centers.

About Data Centers

It's projected that data centers will draw one-fifth of global power and contribute up to 5% of carbon emission by 2025. Given that the Asia Pacific data center and hosting services industry will be a US$32 billion market in three year's time — second only to the United States — it's imperative that we balance the discussion of industry expansion with an eye on global climate emergency.

This is where Johnson Controls come in.

We believe sustainability and innovation are key to steering the data center industry forward. We have integrated sustainability into our business and are committed to providing sustainable products and services. Our innovative DNA drives us to challenge the industry's status quo and push the boundary on established practices in search of better operational efficiencies and energy management. We're advocates for new technologies that promote carbon-neutrality, and have lasting positive impact to our environment.

We are your strategic technology solutions partner - whether you're a large hyperscale cloud service provider, or a retail colocation operator, or somewhere in between. We understand the issues that are keeping the industry awake at night. We provide an eco-system of solutions that addresses your pressing concerns: from optimizing operational costs, improving total cost of ownership, building resilience to enhancing visibility on your daily operations with AI technologies.

We don't believe in taking a cookie-cutter approach to your business. That's because no two data centers are alike. We draw on our decades-long experience to deliver a holistic solution that's customized for your current operations; and scalable when you're ready to expand. Our comprehensive portfolio will help get your data center business off the ground running quickly, and with maximum uptime availability.

Managing a data center is a complex business with slim tolerance for errors. We have the tools, technology and expertise to ensure disruptions to your mission-critical business are taken care of before they even emerge. No matter where your operations are based in the Asia-Pacific region, in the event of any unforeseen operational hiccups, our team is readily available to resolve those issues, big or small.

Building With Speed and Standardization

Building a data center is a complex business. The facility needs to be agile, energy-efficient, standards-compliant and future-proofed.

We have the proven tools and methodologies to simplify the planning, needs prioritization and optimization of your facility. From cooling and fire protection to access control and smart maintenance, our technologies help get data centers off the ground running - and stay running 24x7x365.

Securing With Specialized Security

Security is of paramount importance to data centers. Our security solutions include cutting edge technologies such as thermal imaging, facial recognition and intrusion detection — for enhanced safety protocol and operational effectiveness.

Top-notch Efficiency

Whether you are a hyperscale cloud service provider or a retail colocation operator, we have the right energy-efficient solution for you. Our Smart Connected Chiller Technology and Enterprise Management platform provides real time analysis across the built environment for optimized performance year-round.

   Save 30% On Energy Costs

Cooling energy costs can make up to 40 percent of data center operational expenses. Magnetic bearings in our chiller compressors and our integrated water-side economizer in our air-cooled screw chillers save up to 30 percent on energy costs, while our YVFA chiller optimizes free cooling.

   pPUE Less Than 1.1

Advanced technology like our Mission Critical Air Handling Unit with Direct Evaporative Cooling has an industry-leading pPUE of less than 1.1.

   Save 80% Water Usage

Our award winning BlueStream™ hybrid cooling system combines air-cooled and water-cooled heat rejection systems with advanced controls, reducing water usage by up to 80 percent while optimizing energy use.

   1 Pane of Glass

Smart Connected Chillers and Enterprise Management create a proactive and predictive environment. Monitor and manage data, equipment, and systems from a single pane of glass. Easily track KPIs, and significantly enhance your ability to harness the power of AI and machine learning to forecast.

Upgrades and Integration Services

We are based in more than 500 locations worldwide to help you maximize the performance of your facilities and delivery the best possible experience. From HVAC equipment upgrades to software releases and professional services such as vibration evaluation, you can depend on our highly reliable professionals locally.

Enhanced Insider Security: Protect Your Data Center, Your Data, and Your Reputation

We can add real value to your existing layer of protection with our location-based Enhanced Insider Security.

This software-based approach uses wireless sensors, beacons, and gateways to monitor real-time locations of people and assets. Our platform collects all this location data, and proprietary algorithms analyze it to generate alerts of suspicious or unauthorized behavior.
