The 12th of September marks National Data Centre Day, a day dedicated to recognising the vital role data centres play in powering the UK's digital economy and meeting the countries AI ambitions.
This date marks the anniversary of when data centres were officially classified as Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) by the UK Government, highlighting their importance in keeping businesses, services, and society connected and providing infrastructure that’s as vital as water and energy.
From enabling cloud computing and AI to supporting essential services like healthcare, finance, and communications, data centres are the backbone of our digital world. Yet, they often go unnoticed.
National Data Centre Day helps us to:
🔹 Raise awareness of data centres as the essential infrastructure that keeps the UK running.
🔹 Celebrate the people and innovation behind the industry.
🔹 Improve public perception by showcasing sustainability, efficiency, and technological advancements.
