Micro-Modular Data Center equipment at VNNIC's primary Internet data center in Hanoi, Vietnam.

Officials with Dot VN said that as part of the MOU, the company and VNNIC will partner together to evaluate the performance of EMS' data center infrastructure technology in a trial that is expected to initially last three months.

According to company officials, the purpose of the test is to demonstrate the technology's capabilities with the intention of building data centers in Vietnam and Asia based on EMS' Micro-Modular Data Center equipment.

VNNIC will be responsible for providing the technical staff who will manage the testing and operation of the data center unit, while Dot VN will provide support to VNNIC as necessary in the implementation of the test.

The test will showcase EMS' C3-S.P.E.A.R. Micro-Modular Data Center, a best of breed technology solution that provides substantial cost and energy savings with minimal upfront investment compared to similar data center technologies.

"We are extremely excited about the testing that will be performed in Hanoi over the next three months," said Thomas Johnson, CEO, Dot VN.

Johnson said that EMS' C3-S.P.E.A.R. Micro-Modular Data Center is cutting edge technology that is both mobile and highly scalable.

Moreover, introducing the technology to Vietnam is in keeping with our commitment to deliver best of breed technology solutions to the people of Vietnam," he said.
