Software & Appliance Market Evolution – 2010 to 2015 Systems Management Software Single converged physical infrastructure management software by 2012 / 2013 Source: Gartner ITOM Report 3/09 Hi PI Policies Open APIs for systems software integration What Leading Industry Analysts are Saying… “Infrastructure and operations (I&O) leaders must now go beyond performance management of IT equipment and begin to manage the entire data center infrastructure. Tools for data center infrastructure management (DCIM) will provide detailed monitoring and measurement of data center performance, utilization and energy consumption, supporting more-efficient, cost-effective and greener environments.” –David J. Cappuccio, Gartner March 2010 What Leading Industry Analysts are Saying… “The long-term value of DCIM is tied to a product’s ability to integrate with other system management tools or orchestration tools that optimize data center workloads.” –Galen Schreck of Forrester Research December 2009 Integrated Functionality Data Center Infrastructure Management Relative Customer Business Value Physical Resource Infrastructure Management Provisioning, configuration, change management Security& policy management Focus on agility & total economic investment Intelligent Physical Layer Management Lo Hi Breadth of Functionality/Scope

39. Using PUE to Help Measure Efficiency Total Facility Power • The PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) is a simple ratio for assisting in measuring datacenter efficiency. It compares total electrical power at the intake to power delivered to IT equipment. • PUE is a snapshot in time and is entirely influenced by a site’s M&E configuration, environmental conditions and Tier rating, PUE cannot be readily used to compare one site with another but is used to track the efficacy IT Equipment Power
40. Pushing the envelope Exploring the ASHREA Window 2004 specifications bound between 20-25 Degrees C ASHREA worked closely with IT manufacturers to expand this window/region. This included decreasing the dry bulb lower limit to 18 degree C and increasing the upper limit to 27 degrees C. DRY BULB LOWER LIMITThere is no concern from an IT standpoint in lowering the operating condition from 20 to 18°C (64.4°F). The goal here was to extend the control range of economized systems by not requiring a mixing of hot return air to maintain the previous limit. DRY BULB UPPER LIMITThe justification for increasing the dry bulb limit was to increase hours of economizer use per year. Concerns about increasing inlet temperature causing lower reliability are not well founded. IT Equipment manufacturers test, confirm, and state, through ASHRAE, that operation within the recommended limits will not affect equipment reliability
