This resource examines the causes of today’s data center power and cooling crisis and outlines 5 steps businesses can take to remove inefficiencies from their power and cooling infrastructure. 

This paper explores how you can optimize UPS availability by focusing on minimizing repair time and maximizing redundancy, both inside your UPSs and across your power protection initiatives. Also learn why modular UPS designs provide superior availability even though they typically contain more parts that could potentially fail. 

This case study explains why one company chose to consolidate and virtualise its servers and describes the approach they implemented and the results they realised, including significant cost savings, reduction of floor space requirements, and more. 

This white paper explores the attributes of an effective data center management approach and recommends a tool that can help you reduce costs, improve availability, and ensure compliance. 

Virtualization can have major consequences on the data center physical infrastructure (DCPI). Higher power densities can challenge the cooling capabilities of an existing system. Reduced energy consumption may actually worsen the data center's power usage effectiveness (PUE). Learn more about the particular effects of virtualization inside. 

Electricity usage costs have become an increasing fraction of the total cost of running a data centers. This paper explains how achieve electricity savings and provides examples of methods that can greatly reduce electrical power consumption. 

This white paper explains how data center needs have changed over the last five years and discusses the reasons why management of virtualized compute, network, and storage access should be integrated. Discover the vision behind a private cloud and learn how to avoid making common mistakes as you prepare for this new IT model. 

This white paper explains why x86 platforms are considered a viable alternative to traditional RISC/Unix solutions and explores the savings you can expect after implementing them. 

By helping your data center more accurately visualize and control energy use, you'll reclaim facility capacity and optimize energy use en route to reducing costs for your organization. Read this white paper for the details.
