Accelerating Sustainability Through Integrated Data Center Management
By:
Type: Replay
In recent years, the demand for data centers has skyrocketed as more and more businesses and individuals rely on digital technologies to store, process, and access data. However, the energy consumption of data centers has also increased, making them a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. Many data center operators are turning to innovative technologies and practices to improve energy efficiency and reduce their carbon footprint to address this. One such approach is integrating a Building Automation System (BAS) with a Data Center Infrastructure Management System (DCIM). A BAS is a centralized control system that manages and controls the environmental conditions of a building, including heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), lighting, and security. By monitoring and adjusting the building's systems in real-time, the BAS can improve energy efficiency, reduce waste, and improve occupant comfort and safety. Conversely, a DCIM provides centralized management and monitoring of a data center's IT and physical infrastructure, including power and cooling systems, server utilization, capacity planning, and environmental conditions.

A new approach for planning, operating and optimizing your data center
By:
Type: Replay
Data centers have never been more vital or central to business operations, yet they need to be ever more efficient, resilient and flexible. Thermal systems have a special role in achieving these requirements. They consume significant power, and, as mechanical systems, experience many more planned maintenance events and unplanned failures than other critical infrastructure. These planned and unplanned events have significant, but often poorly understood impact on data center assets and operations. In this session, we will introduce: - The Cooling Chain - The ability to map any asset, including IT, workloads and users, onto cooling units - The downstream impact of cooling failure or maintenance events - Strategies for aligning thermal capacity with workload demand, both in planning and real-time operations Join this webinar featuring the presentation made at the July DCD: Keeping IT Cool Event

Prepping for a High Speed Upgrade
By:
Type: Video
When planning to upgrade transmission speeds, data center network administrators must plan for far more than new hardware. In several ways, a network speed upgrade can ripple through the entire data center ecosystem. This discussion covers the considerations that planners should make when mapping out a network speed increase. It provides multiple perspectives on how a high-speed migration impacts different systems, from media to supporting hardware, pathways, airflow, cooling and others. This detailed examination of an upgrade plan covers the topics that come to mind readily as well as those you may not have thought about. Understanding the standards that apply to data center design are also key to successfully migrating to higher speeds. In this presentation, Valerie Maguire introduces viewers to the FOTC's new Standards Explorer database and explains how this free tool can help ensure a smooth migration. This seminar was first broadcast as part of Cabling Installation & Maintenance's Data Center Summit. It is sponsored by EXFO. It is not eligible for BICSI CECs.

Edge Big Bang
By:
Type: Talk
Edge Data Center? Yeah, of course… but highly distributed edge is becoming a reality. Edge is not anymore a proof of concept that runs in a single location in a controlled environment. Real deployments customers are starting to deploy use cases that are decomposed from device to cloud and that run in thousands of different locations (e.g. 100K Road Side Units or BTS). This, per se, is already a big challenge. However; this becomes augmented by multiple facts: 1. Not reliable networks; 2. Extreme harsh conditions (thermal, dust etc.) that make systems potentially less stable; 3. Highly dynamic loads that depend on the status of where edge appliances are physically located and what workloads need (e.g. BTS or smart city cameras); 4. Thermal and energy extremes sometimes restricting compute power availability for spiky workloads. This keynote will address the key design points and technologies that are needed to overcome those challenges and be able to address the requirements that the Edge Big Bang requires. The technologies will cover and connect hardware and software elements such as new types of cooling systems and hardware system designs, cloud native and service life cycle management at scale.
