Solution: Recommended Architectures for Data Centers

Main drivers

Since designing, installing and maintaining a Data Centers installation is complex and hazardous, it requires to master architectures, products and services offers, from the early preliminary design to operations.
Business continuity to secure and increase revenues, since downtime outages are huge.
Operational efficiency: for ROI of the infrastructure
Evolutivity: Site ability to follow high rate evolution on IT technologies

Solution in brief

IEC “End to end power solutions for Data Centers” consist in a consistent library of recommended architectures, for different levels of power sizing and redundancy level.
A recommended architecture is defined by its electrical diagram, the definition of equipments, the maintenance requirements, from utility feeder down to critical loads.
These architectures are fully qualified, with dependability engineering and simulations on: Availability, reliability, investment and operational costs.

Value proposition

Peace of mind: High availability solutions, consistent, with field experience embedded. Homogeneous across the complete power system, from utility feeder down to critical loads. Compliance with Uptime Institute’s TIER classification.
Business continuity / disaster recovery: Critical info delivered to right person at the right time
Qualified solutions: the solutions offer a range of 4 x levels of redundancy (based on TIER recommendation), with availability values from 99,993 to 99,99999996 %, and estimates of Total Cost of Ownership (to help in selecting the best alternative considering customer needs), evolutivity without shutdown.

Differentiation factors

These solutions are consistent, with field experience embedded. As the strength is that of the weakest link, they proposed a homogeneous solution across the complete power system.
They fully integrate measure & monitoring for risk management and traceability.
Pre-engineered solutions allow for improved performances, more engineering and studies than one-shot projects.

Energy availability: dependability study (statistical values for reliability and availability)
Energy savings: “End to end power solutions for Data Centers” integrate energy metering in key equipments, in order to provide facility managers with guidelines of potential savings.
Environmental impact: Equipment selection is optimized for major performance and limitation of environmental impact (reduced losses, copper section, plastic quantities, etc.)
