Here is what Alec Selvon-Bruce has to say:

I have been analysing this market for our colleagues at Hitachi Ltd (in April 09 Hitachi launched Module Type Data Centre in the domestic Japan market)

I have differentiated two categories (1) Pre-fabricated modulate data centres (2) Container based data centres

PRE-FABRICATED MODULE TYPE DCs: Available from 100m2 to 500m2 module configurations adapted for Tier 1/2/3/4 requirements with different UPS and AHU options
- GALILEO CONNECT DATA PODS
- RED VISTA RV-MDC (First installation of RV-MDC at London City airport)
- IBM MODULE DATA CENTRE – marketed by the Site & Facilities team and primarily based on AST’s Smartshelter solution

CONTAINER MODULE TYPE DCS: Stackable systems built into standard sea 30 ft containers. Market advanced by Microsoft data centre strategy 07/08 competitive tender
- SUN BLACKBOX
- RACKABLE ICE-CUBES
- VERARI FOREST
- HP PODS
- ALTRON OPTISTRUCTURE (Czech HQ ICT company with long history of container deployments)
