Kuehne+Nagel introduces a server and data centre logistics solution for the cloud infrastructure sector
Drawing on its experience of delivering logistics solutions for server and data centre customers, Kuehne+Nagel announces the global launch of a specialised logistics solution for the growing cloud infrastructure industry. The strong growth of this sector has further accelerated with the expansion of artificial intelligence (AI). Gartner forecasts that spending on public cloud services will grow by 20.4% in 2024 and by 22.1% in 2025 due to AI growth.
“Customers of cloud infrastructure demand reliable, secure, and scalable solutions that cater to the specific needs of their industry and enhance the resilience of their supply chains. The introduction of this dedicated solution underscores our commitment to supporting the global expansion of customers in this rapidly growing sector,” states Yngve Ruud, Member of the Management Board of Kuehne+Nagel International AG, responsible for Air Logistics.
The comprehensive solution addresses the specific needs of an industry that demands reliability, predictability, security, and visibility throughout the entire supply chain. It offers access to Kuehne+Nagel’s extensive global air logistics network with continuous pickup and delivery services, including last-mile white glove road transport solutions. A worldwide network of certified logistics experts is trained to deliver sensitive and oversized servers to data centres with consistent quality and security.
The solution offers real-time visibility of essential shipment information, enabling customers to make quick and informed decisions. Digital tools reduce risks and identify optimal shipping routes suited to operational needs. GPS capabilities track and monitor shipment movements in real time, offering detailed data reports to verify temperature, light exposure, and chain of custody at all touchpoints.
Kuehne+Nagel further offers a breadth of sustainable transport solutions to complement the service, which reduces shipment emissions and contributes to reaching environmental targets.
