Energy Efficient Best Practices • Design / Modeling • Equipment Selection • Right Sizing • System Control • Eliminate Obstructions • Hot-aisle/Cold-aisle • Perforated Tile Placement • Eliminate “Bypass” Air • Adjust and Balance the Air Systems • Tune the System Controls • Energy Benchmarking Parallels Summit 2008
Site Infrastructure Efficiency • A fundamental measure of data center efficiency is the ratio of the total power consumed by the facility infrastructure to the power used by the IT equipment load. • Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) and Data Center Infrastructure Efficiency (DCiE) are defined as follows: * PUE = Total Facility Power IT Equipment Power DCiE = 1 = IT Equipment Power x 100% PUE Total Facility Power *The Green Grid Data Center Power Efficiency Metrics: PUE and DCiE Emerging Metrics: i.e., Data Center Energy Productivity (DCeP ); EPA Energy Star; benchmark developers Parallels Summit 2008
