Moving to a consolidated data center reduces the number of servers, which can minimize required investments in hardware, hardware maintenance charges, data center space costs and energy use. This e-book outlines a systematic approach you can use to server consolidation to ensure that your data center reaps all the benefits of virtualization. 

This paper describes the science and practical application of an improved method for the specification of cooling for wiring closets. 

This paper is the second in a two-part series exploring the innovation barrier – the point at which testing can no longer keep pace with development in the equipment manufacturing industry. It examines the innovation barrier’s symptoms – from slowdowns in development to mounting quality issues – and the potential impact on equipment manufacturers. 

This Technical Standard provides a taxonomy describing the factors that drive risk – their definitions and relationships. This Technical Standard is not a reference or tutorial on how to assess or analyze risk, as there are many such references already available.
