Datacenter Trends: June 2008

Managing heat is one of the most important factors in ensuring the optimal performance of your datacenter. Excess heat adversely affects equipment performance, shortens its lifespan and reduces the overall effectiveness of your company's operations. With rack-level cooling, you can match cooling and power resources to the devices that consume the most power and generate the most heat.

By targeting cooling directly at the enclosure, you will improve energy efficiency and free up valuable floor space. Through more closely coupling your heat producing assets with your cooling infrastructure you will improve the stability, reliability and efficiency of your datacenter.

4 Things to Consider When Purchasing a Rack-level Cooling Solution:
There are several factors that will affect your choice of a rack-level cooling solution.

Capacity- The kW capacity of the rack-level cooling solution will be your primary consideration.
Heat rejection medium- There are three primary approaches to rack-level cooling including ambient air cooling at the room-level, ambient air cooling at the enclosure-level and liquid cooling
Scalability- Ensuring the scalability of your rack-level cooling solution is one of the most important factors in determining your ROI and lowering your total cost of ownership.
Integrated UPS- Many rack-level cooling solutions include an integrated UPS, which makes the unit self-contained and ensures back-up power protection to keep your devices cool in the event of a power failure.
