[VIDEO] What is Data Center Energy Efficiency? – Part 1
On the surface this may seem like a fairly straightforward question, but the reality is that data center energy efficiency is rather elusive. While many people discuss it on a regular basis, very few seem to hit the nail on the head. A reason for this is that many in...
Five Simple Steps to Make Your Data Center More Sustainable
There are many things that can be done to improve the sustainability of the data center. Some cost a lot. You can spend hundreds of thousands upgrading cooling systems or adding liquid cooling. An upgrade to the latest GPU-enabled servers can cost millions. Those...
The Less Commonly Known Delta Ts in Data Center Cooling
The other two important ΔTs – the temperature differential from IT equipment exhaust to cooling unit return intake and from cooling unit supply to IT equipment intake – will account for unexpected differences between the IT equipment ΔT and cooling equipment ΔT. In an...
Why PUE Remains Flat and What Should Be Done About It
One of the most successful programs in data center efficiency has to be Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), which was launched about 20 years ago. The idea is to have PUE as close to 1 as possible. A 1.0 rating means all of the power coming into the data center is used...
The More Commonly Known Delta Ts in Data Center Cooling
There is not just THE ΔT and there are not even just two ΔTs in the data center. As a matter of fact, there are four different ΔTs which contribute to the health of the data center. Two of these temperature differentials are frequently considered as a single metric:...
