  1. On-Demand Architecture for Network-Critical Physical Infrastructure Large Data Centers Small & Medium Data Centers Computer Rooms & Closets David Blumanis APC, Data Centre Consultant, Asia Pacific

  2. Network-Critical Physical Infrastructure (NCPI) Essential foundation of reliability

  3. You have a large NCPI investment Electricity: 27% Service: 13% Racks: 3% Space: 17% Engineering & Installation: 19% Cooling Equipment: 6% Power Equipment: 17% Typical 10 yr lifecycle TCO from $80K to $140K per rack Source: APC White Paper #6

  4. Network-Critical Physical Infrastructure Challenges • Rapid changes in IT technology • High density • High operating/service costs • Increasing availability expectations • Server consolidation • Regulatory requirements In response, APC is changing the way the world designs, installs, operates, manages and maintains Network-Critical Physical Infrastructure (NCPI)

  5. The Business Value Equation for Network-Critical Physical Infrastructure Availability x Agility Value = TCO What are the barriers to improving value by 10x?

  6. 10 X Agility Availability x Value = TCO • Equipment Reliability • Mean-Time-To-Recover • Human Error 80% less 50% less Your entitlement: Reduce downtime by 90%

  7. Case Study of Downtime Failures Consistent with Surveys which attribute 60% or more of failures to Human Error

  8. Standardisation enables improved availability Standardise To Eliminate • Modularise • Pre-test systems in the factory • Hot swappable • Pre-Integrate Power-Cooling-Rack Management & diagnostics • One-Time Engineering • Unique training requirements • On-site assembly • On-site testing • Custom programming Standardisation accelerates learning at all levels, reducing human error and increasing availability

  9. 10 X Agility Availability x Value = TCO • Speed of Deployment • Ability to Scale • Ability to Reconfigure 80% less time 100% easier 100% easier Your entitlement: As much as 10 x the agility

  10. Traditional Approach (200 days) “I need more capacity.” Custom Parts, Applications and Services “I have more capacity.” Needs Assessment Operation Design Concept Commissioning Construction Design Construction

  11. Data Centre traditional design

  12. What if…… • TheDesign Concept is built on standardised parts that can be scaled to meet the need? • Construction Design incorporates a “Lego Block” approach of pre-engineered components? • Construction is mainly done in a factory instead of on-site? • Commissioning tests pre-integrated infrastructure systems.

  13. Agility Availability x Value = 20% less TCO • Capital Cost • Electricity Costs • Service Costs 30% less 10% less 30% less Your entitlement: As much 20% overall NCPI TCO

  14. Waste due to oversizing Reference: APC White paper #37

  15. The Business Value Equation for Network-Critical Physical Infrastructure Agility Availability x Value = TCO
