IT is getting boxed-in by power & cooling
● Rack density has doubled every 8 years
since 1992
● Moore’s Law drives increased MIPs
Power density is exploding
● Power density increasing 15% per year
● By 2010, average kW per rack forecast to be 20+ kW
(up from 1 kW in 2000)
● Dense power makes cooling unpredictable and expensive
Moore’s Law is now being limited
by infrastructure!

Key points on energy usage in data centers
● More than 50% of power going into a typical data center goes to the power
and cooling systems – NOT to the IT loads
● The typical 1MW (IT load) data center is continuously wasting about 400kW
or 2,000 tons of coal per year due to poor design (DCiE = 50%, instead of
best-practice 70%)
● Every kW saved in a data center saves about $1,000 per year
● Every kW saved in a data center reduces carbon dioxide emissions by 5
tons per year
● Every kW saved in a data center has a carbon reduction equivalent to
eliminating about 1 car from the road

● A 1% improvement in data center infrastructure efficiency (DCiE)
corresponds to approximately 2% reduction in electrical bills

How that translates into savings
"A small-to-average-sized 1MW US data center
that uses management software to reduce
energy consumption by 10% will save $87,600
per year, or $438,000 over five years (not
including equipment and software investment).
A European datacenter may save $650,000 over
five years (because of higher electricity
prices)."

… with lean, smart infrastructure
Smart management can help you …
● Align capacity with demand
At row, rack, and server level
UNMANAGED infrastructure
● Predict fan failure to IT impact
Reduce wasteful excess capacity
● Monitor the physical infrastructure
Instant status and alarms
● Reduce non-IT power consumption
Increase DATA CENTER EFFICIENCY

Expanding integrations
• InfraStruxure Operations PRO Pack for Microsoft System Center Virtual
Machine Manager
• Provides insight into how virtual machines relate to physical servers and their
location, automatically migrating virtual machines to secure host environments
enabling customers to maintain Service Level Agreements and view and manage
network health.
• From power failure to IT impact
• Problem:
•The impact of critical power events are not effectively propagated to Virtual Machines
(VMs)
• Solution:
•The critical events are translated into server impact analysis
•VMs at risk are automatically migrated to healthy hosts
• APC Solution requirements
• InfraStruxure Operations & InfraStruxure Capacity v6.1
• InfraStruxure Operations PRO Pack – SKU: SFVMM2008R261 (free download)

InfraStruxure Energy Efficiency 1.1
Full insight into current and historical energy efficiency for facilities,
identifying efficiency losses and enabling improved PUE values at
subsystem level.
● PPower dependency editor
● A hierarchical break-down of the power flow from the power enters the
building down to the main PDU, providing an overview of the power path
through the building.
● CCarbon footprint
● Shows the CO2 footprint for each energy sub-system, for instant
measurement of impact on the environment.
Intelligent PUE analytics at subsystem level
APC by Schneider Electric – InfraStruxure Management Software 6.1, What’s New – September 2010
InfraStruxure Operations 6.1
Instant overview of data center operations through inventory
management, PUE calculator, real-time device alarms, and
location-based drill-down
● Network management
● A graphical overview of the data center network paths and their interconnections.
● Blade servers
● Mirror the exact data center setup, by modeling blades within their blade enclosures.
● Expiring license support
● Expiring license support to enable current InfraStruxure Central customers to try out
InfraStruxure Operations for a limited time period
● Download available for customers with a valid software support contract.
● SKU number: SFISXOPS61
Integrated inventory management for full overview of
data center operations
