The mobile phone has 256 GB of memory,
0:21
enough to store 12,000 photos, about
0:24
2,000 videos, mostly short, and several

This is an external drive, about the
0:31
same size, but the memory capacity is
0:33
already four times larger.
0:36
17 Moments of Spring in good quality can
0:39
be recorded here approximately 300
0:42
times. And from our philistine point of
0:44
view, it may seem that this is a large
0:47
amount of information placed very
0:49
compactly, but really big data is stored
0:52
completely differently in a world where
0:54
information has become almost a main
0:58
There is a lack of shelves, more
1:00
precisely server cabinets.
1:04
Data centers, which house thousands
1:06
[music] of racks of equipment, are
1:08
becoming as important a part of
1:10
infrastructure as the power plants that
1:14
There is so much information in each
1:16
data center that the scale of the
1:17
facility is not even measured by
1:19
traffic, but by the amount of energy it
1:21
consumes, where there are really large
1:24
capacities in the nuclear industry.
1:28
Rosatom has been developing its own
1:30
network of data centers for several
1:32
years. There is enough energy and
1:34
infrastructure capacity for both its
1:36
enterprises and third-party clients.
1:39
Both public and private companies come.
1:41
Some bring their equipment, and some
1:43
choose cloud infrastructure.
1:46
>> These are companies that today deal with
1:49
issues of sustainability and sovereignty
1:51
in a broad sense of the word. You can
1:53
probably call them uh, giants or
1:56
pioneers of the country's economy. These
1:59
are those who have quite complex
2:01
business processes, who today it is
2:03
important to integrate [music]
2:04
heterogeneous businesses, and for them
2:07
cloud infrastructure services are an
2:09
opportunity [music] to connect their
2:12
various platform histories in one place
2:14
to manage individual types of business.
2:20
>> The pilot project was implemented 6
2:22
years ago in Udomlya.
2:24
The data processing center is located
2:26
near the Kalinin nuclear power plant.
2:28
>> Here, the power units are clearly
2:29
visible from the roof of one of the
2:31
buildings. Moreover, the SOD is part of
2:33
the nuclear power plant circuit. This
2:35
means that security measures have been
2:36
increased here. Like the station itself,
2:39
the data processing center is located in
2:43
Kalininsky is one of the largest data
2:45
centers in Europe, 48 MW of power. It is
2:48
equally easy to get to from Moscow and
2:49
St. Petersburg by highway or high-speed
2:51
train, and proximity to the nuclear
2:54
power plant ensures not only safety.
2:56
This data center is powered by the
2:58
Kalinin nuclear power plant.
3:00
And due to economies of scale, the
3:01
conditions for consumers of data center
3:03
services, especially large ones, are
3:07
The Kalininsky data center itself needs
3:09
a small server to store and process its
3:11
own information. SOD does not know what
3:14
tasks clients rent capacity for. Their
3:17
scale can only be guessed by the amount
3:19
of energy consumed by the dedicated
3:23
>> An ordinary warehouse in which [music]
3:25
accounting is kept simply as a commodity
3:27
of values can consist of only one
3:29
server, which simply stores this list
3:31
[music] and performs operations for
3:33
receiving goods and writing off issues.
3:36
Go further and automate the distribution
3:38
system in the warehouse, the movement of
3:40
robots, then it may take several racks,
3:43
or even a small SOD will have to be
3:53
>> Another data center, which is preparing
3:56
for opening, was built in the special
3:58
economic zone Innopolis. This is one of
4:01
the key platforms for the development of
4:03
Russian IT technologies.
4:07
In the Volga Federal District, this will
4:09
be the largest data center, [music] 16
4:10
megawatts of power. The second stage is
4:13
only being built, but the first with 8
4:15
megawatts or 1,000 server racks will
4:17
start operating very soon.
4:21
The data center is erected, as they say,
4:23
in an open field on the principle of
4:25
green field, when the site becomes a
4:27
site that has never been used before.
4:30
For example, from Kazan, from here to
4:32
the center of the capital of the
4:34
Republic, 40 km specially stretched
4:39
>> Naturally, we looked at the
4:42
customer market interest,
4:44
large industrial enterprises, the public
4:46
sector, private business, and the
4:48
monopoly itself is the forge of, say,
4:51
new enterprises, startups that are very
4:53
interested. They need such computing
4:58
>> And the data center is ready to provide
5:00
its resources not only to business. The
5:02
facility in Innopolis had not yet been
5:04
completed when Rosatom specialists
5:06
deployed a test cloud environment and
5:07
provided computing power to universities
5:11
Young scientists from Kazan Federal
5:13
University, who conduct research at the
5:15
Department of Design of New Materials
5:17
and Machine Learning, previously had to
5:19
go to Moscow and wait 2 or 3 weeks for
5:21
the results of calculations. [music]
5:24
>> We reduced the research to 2 days, in
5:26
fact. And there we conducted the first
5:28
calculations in the world based on
5:30
palladium cobalt alloys, [music] on the
5:31
basis of which nano elements that are
5:33
used in the production of quantum
5:35
computers are created. That is, they
5:37
successfully defended this research at
5:39
the forum in Chernogolovka. The Russian
5:41
Academy [music] of Sciences confirmed
5:43
this research and published a high
5:44
ranking in the journal. We, accordingly,
5:47
act as infrastructure partners.
5:50
>> The new data center is 80% import
5:52
substituted. Russia also produced the
5:55
most important nodes. These are
5:56
uninterruptible power sources. In case
5:59
of disconnection from the network, they
6:01
will provide the equipment with energy
6:02
for the time until the backup [music]
6:04
diesel generator and cooling machines,
6:06
chillers are launched. Each server
6:08
produces an impressive amount of heat
6:11
and the issue of hot air removal when
6:13
creating any data center is one of the
6:15
most important in the design. Innopolis
6:17
supplied 16 powerful devices, which the
6:20
manufacturer adapted specifically for
6:25
>> According to our technical
6:26
specifications, factory tests were
6:28
carried out. We took part in them and
6:31
new models of chillers were built,
6:33
which, strictly speaking, are used here.
6:40
>> The new data processing and storage
6:42
center of the Moskva 2 project, which is
6:44
also preparing to open, has a large
6:46
capacity, 36 MW. It will be possible to
6:49
place more than 3.5 thousand racks with
6:52
servers, which means that the cooling
6:53
[music] system is needed even more
6:54
powerful than that of colleagues in
6:56
Innopolis. On the roof of the new
6:58
capital facility, 72 chillers were
7:03
Chillers, units by no means quiet, and a
7:06
few dozen meters from the object are
7:07
residential buildings. And, of course,
7:09
the topic of sound insulation has become
7:14
These panels were installed in two rows.
7:16
They not only have a perforated surface,
7:18
there is also soundproofing material
7:20
inside, but these panels were specially
7:23
installed at an angle so that the noise
7:25
goes away from residential buildings.
7:29
This is the first data center in Russia
7:32
built according to the highest
7:33
reliability standard TR4. It implies
7:36
many solutions that will never stop its
7:39
operation. One of them is power
7:41
redundancy. are only about 70 centers
7:44
worldwide with this level of fault
7:49
>> With the commissioning of this facility,
7:51
we will more than triple our own
7:53
engineering infrastructure.
7:56
And we plan to firmly establish
7:58
ourselves in the top five companies
8:00
leaders of the data center market.
8:02
Currently, the volume of our
8:04
infrastructure is 1680 [music]
8:06
racks of places with the commissioning
8:08
of the data center D9 Moscow Square 2 as
8:10
well as [music] Sotonopolis. The total
8:12
volume will be 6570 racks.
8:17
>> In this data center, there servers will
8:19
be placed companies, those associated
8:21
with critical information
8:22
infrastructure, that is enterprises,
8:24
energy and industry sectors, banks,
8:27
>> high-tech companies.
8:29
Rosatom plans to place part of its
8:31
systems responsible for managing power
8:33
facilities here, and therefore it is
8:35
impossible to exaggerate the importance
8:36
of uninterruptible power supply for its
8:38
operation. This data center is powered
8:41
by city grids, backup source, diesel
8:43
generators, and this part of the
8:44
facility is responsible for a seamless
8:46
transition the uninterruptible power
8:50
>> Here, for example, the electricity will
8:53
be cut off before [music] we start
8:54
guaranteed diesel power. Everything will
8:57
go to the UPS and directly [music] to
8:59
the lithium batteries on which the
9:01
equipment will be able to work for about
9:03
[music] 10 more minutes before starting
9:12
>> Advanced solutions of engineers are used
9:14
both in computer technology and in
9:16
ensuring information security. And in
9:18
general, the development of information
9:21
infrastructure based on Russian
9:22
technologies is part of a large-scale
9:25
work to strengthen technological
9:30
>> We are now discussing with a number of
9:32
countries the construction of data
9:34
centers near our nuclear power plant.
9:37
After all, one of the key elements of
9:39
the reliability of a data center is the
9:42
reliability of power supply.
9:44
Therefore, the placement of data centers
9:46
near a nuclear power plant allows to
9:49
provide this issue with the highest
9:51
level of reliability.
9:54
>> With the development of artificial
9:56
intelligence technologies, the volume of
9:58
information and calculations will grow
10:00
exponentially, which means that we can
10:02
say with confidence that more and more
10:04
such data processing and storage
10:06
factories will appear.
