Case Study: Facebook
•
Goal: to understand and improve
energy use from server to center
Example only
 Integrating with existing meters (Trendpoint,
ServerTech), building management (DLR) and
Application Management (ODS)
 Dynamic Dashboard with real-time status and alerts
 Building , suite-level, and circuit-level drill-down
 Full history and trending
 Server baseline measurement (off, idle, loaded,t)
 Deployment in Santa Clara, with other sites planned
“ Power Assure is helping our data center become more energy efficient by providing a
comprehensive view of our power consumption, thereby helping us identify where we
can make improvements to ensure we are effectively utilizing every kilowatt of our
expensive mission critical facilities”
