Rakesh Kumar – March 2009

Key Findings More than 50% of data centers worldwide will face power, cooling and floor space constraints

during the next three years. Most organizations struggle with quantifying the scale and technical nature of their data center

capacity problems because of organizational problems, and because of a lack of available information.

Few data centers have adopted a continuous-improvement, process-driven approach to manage their data center capacity problems.

Most data centers still use inefficient, ad hoc approaches to manage their data center capacity issues.

Recommendations Evaluate the floor space, power and cooling consumption in the data center. Conduct an energy consumption audit and computational fluid dynamic analysis once a year. Improve the use of the existing infrastructure through consolidation and virtualization before

building out or buying new/additional data center floor space. Consider the use of IT equipment and growth rates with power, cooling and floor space

requirements when deciding on building versus buying new/additional data center space. Use a continuous-improvement, process-driven approach to improve data center floor use

and allocation.

Comments from the IndustryIContinuously Optimize Your Data Center Capacity Before Building or Buying More

Business Value Banking – “Install 3,000 servers per year.

Reduced Install time from 60 to 10 days.”

Fujitsu – “We saved over 500 man-hours per month ($25K+) in one data center.”

Lehman Brothers – “75-100 tickets a day, install 1,000 machines a week, 10,000 tickets a year. Improved time-to-provision from 2-3 weeks to 1-2 days.”

Retail – “Installs 75-100 servers per month. Reduced time by 30% and error rate dropped from 25% to 0%, saving $157,000 annually.”

Banking – “Confirmed 1,745 devices could be removed from maintenance saving $212,988 a month.”

Lehman Brothers – “Before implementing Infrastructure Management $13M in equipment was lost.”

Conclusions

Convergence is coming…

Proactive measurement, planning, and management is critical to success

Possessing the proper technology can reduce or eliminate the pain

Evolutionary, not revolutionary process
