There's a power crisis in the data centre: The latest servers use less power than previous models, but more can be crammed into a rack. Can the current infrastructure keep things cool?
The bank's vice-president of technology information group facilities explains how he deployed a water-side 'economizer' that's expected to generate US$150,000 in free cooling this year
Alternating current became the standard because it was more practical from a cost and efficiency standpoint, but forthcoming research could give Thomas Edison's direct current a decided advantage in the data centre
The key to success is to focus on the big picture when assessing overall power and cooling needs, but where do you start? We have the answers to four mission-critical questions
