CAPACITYWhat does the business need – and where?

COST CapEx and OpEx

CALENDAR 2-5 years

Benefits of Modular

CAPACITY Right-sized from Day One – expand how YOU want

COST Lower CapEx as well as lower PUE and OpEx

CALENDAR 14-20 weeks

» Lower CAPEX

» Closer Alignment of CAPEX and Income

» Lower OPEX

» Time to Deploy

» Real White Space

» Lower Architect, Mechanical, Electrical Consultant costs

» Build What, Where and When required only

» Flexibility, Modules to Suit Requirements, (Density, Tier, Environmental etc.)

» Mobility, Move as Network Evolves

Summary

Major Challenges• How much space will be require?• When will we require it?• What density will we require?• What resilience will we require?• Will I be able to move some applications to the Cloud?• How can I demonstrate reduction in Carbon emission ?• Energy loads/costs rising.• Headache.

Solution: Build efficient units only what is required, when it is required and where it is required.
