Current Data Center Facility Issues
Many enterprises rely on data centers to provide the housing and operations of IT in driving and supporting the business
Data center operators are faced with many challenges moving forwards in considering how to support the dramatic growth in IT requirements:
Age of the facility
Cost of the facility
Available space
Power and cooling
IT Consolidation
Legislation & Sustainability

Typical Requirements for Secure IT Operations
Uncover and eliminate any unknown dangers in your data center infrastructure and operations (security gaps, safety hazards)
Identify compliance issues with relevant corporate and legal requirements
Understand how your IT infrastructure reacts to changes caused by external events and how your personnel and processes are equipped to deal with specific situations
Requirement to develop a Secure IT Operations Strategy
Requirement to optimize security, quality and energy efficiency to meet current and future company needs

Facility Risk Assessment
Energy usage information of the Data Center
Power Usage effectiveness (PUE)
Data Center Infrastructure Efficiency (DCiE)
Mechanical & Electrical redundancy
Current risks and areas of low efficiency
Downtime risks and recommended measures to reduce them
Recommendations for coordinating and optimizing your investments using state-of-the-art security standards
7
Comprehensive Measurement & Recommendations
1 • Identify and analyze possible weak points in the individual
assessment areas of your Data Center
2 • Further to the on-site inspection the risk status of your IT operations
are determined and assessed
3 • Based on your specifications and our assessment results we develop
a catalog of actions specially designed to meet your requirements
4 • This is all detailed in a detailed explanatory report and presented to
you at your premises by our consultants

Understanding the Challenge
Traditionally designed facilities are unable to cope with power density growth
Owner/Operators forced to upgrade infrastructure but still experience localized hotspots
Risk of thermally-induced equipment downtime is becoming greater
10
What is the Impact?
Increasing power densities affect the entire supply chain!
Equipment Manufacturer No Man’s Land Facilities Manager
!
A lack of effective communication between the IT
equipment supplier and the building services !
11
The Variables: Equipment Architecture
Continuously changing thermal/cooling specifications of IT equipment are a challenge!
Cold air intake and hot air exhaust directional differences
Storage Server Network
12
Two identical cabinets are shown each containing different generations of Blade Server:
Blade Centre 2
Different Generations, different Thermal Behavior
Blade Centre 1
The air exhausted differs considerably in temperature
between the two pieces of equipment !
13
Adjusting the configuration of a cabinet affects the equipment‟s inlet temperatures
Maximum inlet temperatures / oC
Blade 27.1
Server1 19.6
Server2 19.7
Server3 18.9
Equipment Layout, different Thermal Behavior
Improvement is obtained by redistributing the equipment.
Initial Configuration New Configuration
Maximum inlet temperatures / oC
Blade 18.1
Server1 19.1
Server2 20.9
Server3 21.8
14
The Variables: Load Capacity Planning
Movement of IT equipment necessitates constant adjustment for optimal management of the Data Center
Present Day Placement 1 Placement 2 Inventory movement is the cause of this problem. !
15
How do we approach the Problem?
A New Approach is necessary, assessing the Physics of the Data Center Facility
The facility is now a box housing high-powered electronic components
It is no longer a BUILDING SERVICES problem
It is an ELECTRONICS COOLING problem and therefore an IT issue
It needs to be divided into two complementary parts:
The Room The Cabinet/Rack Level
16
Facility Readiness Assessment
Uses advanced 3D Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation software to deliver valuable qualitative insight, into the efficiency of data center power and cooling:
Cooling dynamics baseline, with operational load based on infrastructure population of the site
Analysis of the current cooling methods used (floor cooling, raised floor cooling, ducting, in-row, in-cabinet)
Assess the impact of factors which affect the efficiency of power and cooling
Enable what-if scenario analysis for future planning based on your real situation from room, to rack, to individual equipment
Not easily achieved in production data center!
Identify quick win measures to increase the effectiveness of air flow and power
Realize cost savings quicker!
