High Density Cooling - A Costs & Benefits Review

From Rittal Corporation
 

 

In previous publications, Rittal Corporation has discussed the design and implementation requirements associated with deploying a high density cooling solution. Today, it can be said with a very high degree of certainty that the IT community is well aware of the critical issues of meeting the power and cooling requirements of the data center, and, in some cases, not having enough of one or the other, or even both. The discussions continue-from equipment vendors, to design engineers and consultants, facility personnel, various industry groups and even the government. All interested parties have their unique ideas and solutions, roadmaps and planning tools, and new products that will address these needs. In the middle are the end users, trying to make sense of it all, keeping up with the latest advances and information-making sure to get the most cost effective solution without penalizing performance.
