- Data Center Efficiency
How to Measure,
Calculate and Improve your PUE & DCiE
Power and cooling requirements
have risen at an ever-increasing rate .
The recent
trend toward virtualization has pushed the requirements to new levels
never even imagined just 5 years ago. The average power has risen from
1-2 KW to 5-10KW per rack and some cases as high as 20-30KW per rack.
The current environment makes
energy efficiency a necessity .
Greening Initiatives,
Power Consumption & Provisioning,
as well as
Capacity Planning are among the top
major concerns for Data Center managers today. Various studies
show that in the past few years, as the pressure to expand computing
resources increases, concerns relating to power and cooling become more
and more important.
While
virtualization has decreased the number of servers and the space
requirements, it has raised power and cooling density to the point that
data centers that were built only a few years ago are unable to
effectively or efficiently support the new high-density 1U and Blade
Servers.
This workshop will address these
challenges, as well as how to measure and improve Data Center
efficiency.
Factors that Affect
your Data Center's Energy Efficiency
· Voltage vs Efficiency: Server Power Supplies, UPS and Power
Distribution
· Effects of Power Redundancy on Efficiency:
N, N+1, 2N
· Airflow Issues for Improving Data Center Efficiency
· Cooling Technologies: DX, Fluid Loop, Chilled Water & “Free
Cooling”
· High Density Blade Server Cooling Requirements
· Watts per Square Foot vs Watts per Rack
· Close Coupled vs Perimeter Cooling Efficiency
· Best Practices vs Reality
· Q & A - Group Discussion
These seminars are an introduction to the
4 CEU credit workshops that
are scheduled for February and March 2009
The seminars begin at 6
PM
and for your convenience
Registration will be begin at
5 PM with
refreshments and
networking with your peers
.
We believe that you and your IT colleagues
will find the information timely and useful, given the rising cost
of energy, and the ever increasing power and cooling requirement of
today's computer systems. This seminar will provide practical
energy saving tips to improve your Energy Efficiency, which could
result in thousands of dollars in annual savings.
