Data Centres

Main drivers

Support the Latest IT Technology

• Higher density servers, storage and networking are stressing legacy data center cooling and power architectures
      *45% of data centers are more than 10 years old
• Virtualization has added new challenges to availability and efficiency

Simplification

• Centralization and consolidation from multiple smaller data centers to fewer, larger data centers
• Desire to rationalize relationships with vendors (solutions and service)
• Move towards higher levels of project management - even turnkey
• Software management that includes energy management and spans the domains of IT Floor, Cooling, Security and Building Power

Speed to Market

• Greatly reduce design and build cycle time
• Supports todays as well as tomorrows IT technology

Going "Green"

• Energy management software to improve efficiency
• Improved cooling efficiency architectures
• Highest efficiency components designed into a maximum efficiency DCPI solution
• Meet regulatory and compliance standards

Integrated Solution focus delivers:

• Higher Availability : reduces human error, reduces the mean-time-to-recover, and delivers the ability to provide predictable performance in high density environments.
• Better Agility : utilizes standardized components that are quickly configured, sourced, and installed as a solution. Modularity allows the solution to be scaled (up or down) quickly.
• Lower TCO : with modular components allowing for a pay-as-you-grow model lowering capital costs. Opex costs are reduced by designs and equipment that are optimized for electrical efficiency and by integrated software and control systems.
• Best Management Integration : Schneider Electric is the only DCPI company offering total comprehensive management - building automation, IT floor, power quality.

Schneider Electric dramatically simplify the process of designing, deploying and operating the world's most predictable, dense and efficient data centers.
