Prefabricated Modular Data Center Solutions
Mission Critical Group(MCG) is proud to offer a range of prefabricated modular data centers in a variety of configurations.
If you are interested in a prefabricated modular data center for your data center requirements, please contact us with your requirements.
Significant Advancement Over Legacy Solutions
Prefabricated modular data centers represent a significant technological advancement over legacy solutions. Prefabricated data center solutions are designed to be modular, pre-engineered, and factory-built. This means each module can be customized to meet the specific requirements of the application and they can be added or removed to accommodate changes in demand or technology. They’re built in a controlled factory environment, which ensures consistent quality and performance.
Designed To Optimize Space
Prefabricated modular data centers are also designed to optimize space, reduce energy consumption, and minimize waste. The pre-engineered and factory-built nature of prefabricated data centers means they can be built faster and with fewer resources than traditional data centers, resulting in a lower total cost of ownership. They offer greater flexibility, scalability, and efficiency, allowing businesses to meet their evolving data center needs rapidly and cost-effectively.
Prefabricated Modular Data Centers by MCG
Revolutionize your IT infrastructure with our ready-to-deploy prefabricated modular data center solutions for your organization. Our team of experts is dedicated to providing you with the highest level of service and support, ensuring your data center is running smoothly around the clock. We’ll work with you to customize a solution that meets your specific needs, whether you’re looking to upgrade your existing data center or build a new one from scratch.
Let us start by helping you understand the process. When it comes to prefabricated modular data centers, you’ll hear several terms describing the process of designing, building, and deploying these solutions. Here are some key differences between four commonly used terms:
Predesigned
A predesigned data center refers to a solution that has been designed based on a set of predetermined specifications or requirements. In this case, the design process occurs before any physical construction takes place. The idea behind a predesigned solution is to create a standardized design that can be replicated across multiple deployments.
Preengineered
A preengineered data center goes a step further than predesigned by including detailed engineering plans and drawings for the construction and integration of the data center subsystems. This includes detailed documentation for the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems as well as the IT infrastructure. A pre-engineered solution is designed to meet predetermined performance specifications and comprises a documented list of materials, system-level specifications, and drawings of the integrated system.
Prefabricated
A prefabricated data center is a pre-engineered data center that has its systems (hardware and software) preassembled, integrated, and tested in a factory environment to shorten the deployment time frame and improve the predictability of performance. This means the data center’s various components are built in a factory setting and shipped to the deployment site for final assembly. This approach can significantly reduce the time and cost required for on-site construction.
Preassembled
A preassembled data center is a solution that has been assembled off-site and then transported to the deployment location. This can include pre-built IT racks or cabinets, as well as pre-assembled cooling or power modules. The idea behind preassembly is to reduce the amount of on-site construction required and to improve the speed of deployment.
Each of these terms refers to a different level of preconstruction work that occurs before deployment. While there might be some overlap between them, understanding the distinctions between predesigned, pre-engineered, pre-fabricated, and pre-assembled data center solutions can help companies choose the modular data center that best meets their specific needs.
Fast, Flexible and Fit to Form
Some prefabricated data centers include a mix of prefabricated modules and traditional systems, while others are fully prefabricated, meaning all three functional blocks (power, cooling, and IT) are prefabricated.
Form factor is a key attribute that distinguishes our prefabricated solutions. A form factor might be chosen based on the application, such as a data center required to be permanently mobile. In the context of prefabricated modular data centers, form factor refers to the physical size, shape, and configuration of the module or unit that houses the various subsystems. Form factor is an important attribute that distinguishes prefabricated solutions from one another and is often driven by the data center’s application and capacity requirements.
Our Modular Prefabricated Data Center Solution
Genius Solution Highlights
- Performance and Flexibility – One of the primary advantages of our prefabricated modular data centers is their flexibility. Unlike traditional data centers, in which the IT capacity is limited by the established infrastructure, you can rapidly scale up the capacity of a modular data system by adding new modules as customer demand increases. GENIUS modules deliver between 500kW and 10mW of IT capacity, serving a greater need for mid-range data centers (as opposed to the very large data centers required by hyperscalers).
The ability to deliver high-performance critical infrastructure in smaller blocks enables the deployment of data centers in dense areas, and small- and mid-sized data centers can be installed closer to a data source to facilitate edge computing. GENIUS data centers are also globally repeatable in terms of the engineering and supply chain, and they’re able to meet localized climate standards-deploying modular data centers in different parts of the world is relatively simple compared to traditional setups.
- Reduced CapEx – Another benefit of prefabricated modular data centers vs. traditional? Lower capital expenditures (CapEx). Prefabricated modular data centers have a reduced time to market because of their standard design and engineering, which saves time and money by eliminating the initial development phases. Completing a modular data center is more of an assembly project than a construction project-a GENIUS project can go from pad-ready to commissioning in as little as five months, allowing customers to generate revenue much sooner than they can with a traditional data center.
GENIUS data centers are less expensive than most prefabricated white space modules due to their blend of prefabricated power and mechanical modules with kit-built structures and white space. They deliver a minimum of 70% leasable white space and have a minimized need for maintenance because of their energy-efficient and globally available equipment, not to mention the modularity-if something breaks, it’s easier to change the module than to procure and install new equipment.
- Increased Sustainability – Modular data centers can help businesses in every industry meet the increasing demand for more sustainable solutions. GENIUS modules are constructed with a low-carbon concrete foundation and mineral wool panels that have high insulating value and thermal resistivity, and the whole building structure is made with 100% recycled steel. GENIUS data centers can also be equipped with green equipment and solutions like high-efficiency cooling and natural gas, bifuel, or biodiesel backup generation.
Full of Function
Our prefabricated Genius data centers can serve multiple functions, also known as all-in-one configurations, or they can provide a specific data center function in the following cases:
- There might only be a need for a specific resource, such as power, cooling, or IT space, due to stranded capacity in the existing facility.
- If a greater IT capacity is required than what an all-in-one module can support, a single IT space might be necessary due to the modules’ physical space constraints.
- You must separate personnel (e.g., IT, mechanical, electrical) for maintenance and operation purposes to reduce human error risks.
- You require an optimized footprint, and function-specific modules can use larger capacity components and share clearances to provide a greater kilowatt per square foot or square meter of space for specific functions such as power.

What Are Edge Data Centers?
Simply put, edge data centers are facilities that function like regional or cloud data centers but are located in remote locations, usually nearer to end users that utilize cloud-based services. Edge data centers are traditionally smaller in size than traditional data centers but can connect to central data centers, or other networks of data centers. Regional data centers are typically large facilities located near urban areas where a large amount of data is generated. Cloud data centers are oftentimes located in centralized, remote areas where land and power are inexpensive, but they house massive amounts of data.
Edge data centers usually house the same type of information as traditional data centers but are contained within a smaller footprint because they’re located closer to end users and devices. Typically, most edge data centers are connected via fiber to the larger regional and cloud data centers.
Benefits of Edge Data Centers
Businesses looking for edge data center solutions will find that in addition to increased speed and reliability, edge data centers can also process and analyze data in real time. This allows for faster decision-making and a more responsive system overall. Increased security and privacy in regard to sensitive data are some other benefits of edge data centers versus other data centers.
Edge Data Centers Increase Speed
As the number of connected devices continues to grow, traditional data centers will struggle to keep up with the increased volume and the velocity of data being generated. Devices like sensors and cameras are expanding at a rapid pace, and edge data centers are more efficient at handling this increase in data and usage. This improves performance and reduces strain on the network.
Edge data centers can also handle data in remote or hard-to-reach locations. Traditionally, remote locations would have a hard time transmitting large amounts of data to traditional data centers, so edge data centers located closer to these remote locations offer a quicker and more direct line to data services.
Edge Data Centers Improve Security
Oftentimes, regional or cloud data centers are located far away from where the source of the data originates. Edge data centers increase security by placing data storage and processing closer to the source of the data, reducing the need for data to be transmitted over long distances, which can make it more vulnerable to cyberattacks.
Edge data centers also often have enhanced physical security measures, such as secure access controls, surveillance cameras, and backup power supplies, to ensure that data is protected from threats such as theft, natural disasters, and power outages. Additionally, edge data centers may implement advanced security technologies, such as encryption and firewalls, to further protect data from unauthorized access or hacking attempts.
