An Improved Architecture for High-Efficiency, High-Density Data Centers

This paper describes the principles of a new, commercially available data center architecture that can be implemented today to dramatically improve the electrical efficiency of data centers.

Guidance for Calculation of Efficiency (PUE) in Data Centers

The problem & a standardized method is explained & described for classifying data center loads for efficiency calculations. It shows practical approaches allowing PUE calculation of energy use in shared devices that are impractical to measure.

Power and Cooling Capacity Management for Data Centers

High density IT equipment stresses the power density capability of modern data centers. To optimize use of the physical infrastructure resource, measuring at the rack enclosure level is required to ensure predictable and optimal performance.

Reducing the Hidden Costs Associated with Upgrades of Data Center Power Capacity

Scaling the power capacity of legacy UPS systems leads to hidden costs that may outweigh the very benefit that scalability intends to provide
