By

JIANGSHAN, China, June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Kerun Intelligent Control Co., LTD., a manufacturer specializing in power transmission and distribution equipment, announced the launch of its Integrated Transformer and Substation Solutions for AI data centers, cloud facilities and high-density computing infrastructure.

Designed for demanding environments such as the Middle East, the solution supports stable power distribution in regions where high temperatures, heavy electrical loads and continuous 24/7 operation place greater pressure on power infrastructure.

Combining transformers, prefabricated substations, switchgear and intelligent monitoring systems, Kerun’s integrated solution helps data center developers, EPC contractors and infrastructure operators build reliable and scalable power systems for mission-critical facilities.

Addressing Power Challenges in Hot-Climate Data Center Environments

AI data centers and high-density computing facilities face complex electrical challenges, including nonlinear loads, harmonic interference, continuous high-temperature operation and rising power density. In hot-climate regions, transformer thermal performance, fire safety and long-term reliability become even more important.

Key features include:

K-Factor harmonic-resistant transformer design: Optimized for server clusters and high-harmonic environments, helping reduce overheating risks and improve stable operation.FR3 vegetable oil-based insulating fluid option: Supports improved fire safety, thermal performance and overload tolerance, making it suitable for facilities requiring uninterrupted operation.High-efficiency power distribution: Helps reduce power losses, energy consumption and long-term operating costs.Intelligent monitoring and detection: Enables visualization of operating parameters and supports preventive maintenance in demanding environments.Reliable power architecture: Supports redundancy configurations for mission-critical loads.Flexible engineering customization: Allows adaptation based on voltage level, local climate conditions, installation environment and project specifications.

Designed for Reliability, Safety and Scalability

As AI, cloud services and digital infrastructure continue to expand across the Middle East, reliable power systems are becoming a key foundation for data center growth.

“Data centers in high-temperature environments require power systems that can deliver stability, safety and efficiency under continuous operating pressure,” said Mr. Wang, General Manager of Kerun. “Kerun remains committed to providing integrated transformer and substation solutions that support resilient digital infrastructure.”

Beyond data center applications, Kerun also serves utility, industrial, renewable energy and long-distance power transmission sectors.

Arcfra Releases AKE 1.6 to Enhance Production Kubernetes Operations and Network Management

Published

on

By

SINGAPORE, June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Arcfra announces the release of Arcfra Kubernetes Engine (AKE) version 1.6, the latest version of its production-grade container management and service platform.

This release improves Kubernetes operational efficiency and strengthens production network management. AKE 1.6 introduces form-based visual management for Kubernetes resources, enabling users to deploy and manage applications without writing complex YAML files. It also supports separation of workload cluster management networks from service networks and multiple network interfaces for Pods, helping enterprises address security isolation, compliance, and high-performance networking requirements.

Form-Based Visual Management for Kubernetes Resources

AKE 1.6 introduces form-based deployment and management for Kubernetes resources, allowing users to complete common application operations through the UI instead of manually writing and maintaining YAML files.

This capability brings infrastructure, Kubernetes clusters, and business applications into a unified visual management experience. Users can view related resources in a single interface, access frequent operations more directly, and reduce the complexity of managing containerized applications.

Separated Management and Service Networks for Workload Clusters

To prevent management traffic and service traffic from affecting each other, AKE 1.6 supports separating the management network from the service network for workload clusters.

In this architecture, management traffic and business service traffic are isolated into separate network planes. The container service network cannot directly route to control plane components such as the Kubernetes apiserver. Even if a container is compromised, control plane operations remain isolated, improving platform security and helping enterprises meet network isolation and compliance requirements.

Multiple Pod NICs for High-Performance and Isolated Network Access

AKE 1.6 also introduces support for configuring multiple network interfaces for Pods. This capability supports scenarios where applications need access to multiple network planes for security isolation, direct connectivity, or higher network performance.

Compared with Overlay networking, direct flat network access can reduce network overhead and deliver higher throughput and lower latency, with an approximately 20% performance improvement in applicable scenarios.

AKE: Proven in Production

AKE powers mission-critical systems for enterprises in finance, healthcare, manufacturing, e-commerce, and other sectors, including ConnectWave and Foxconn.
