Moving to ICSC: synergy between PNRR projects for more powerful Data Centers: a case study

The paper presents the new enhancement to the Data Center named DC1 at the University of Naples “Federico II”. The ICSC funds at INFN have allowed to improve the power and cooling subsystems, while other funds from the PNRR (the STILES project) and funds directly from the MUR have allowed to enhance the computing, storage and network equipments. All these resources are in addition to the IBiSCo cluster and equipments described earlier in this book, but all together, thanks to a strong synergy between projects, have leaded to a very powerful Data Center for scientific applications.
