Determining the Power, Cooling and Space Capacities when Consolidating Data Centers
Add bookmarkWhen planning the consolidation of multiple data
centers into existing data center(s), it is often difficult
to establish the various capacities and capabilities of
each site’s physical infrastructure. This information is a
key input to deciding which site(s) will become the
"receiving" data center(s). This paper describes how to
specify these requirements in standard terms and how
to establish current conditions and future capabilities
of each data center involved in a consolidation project.
