Data Center Facilities Design for IT E-book: Chapter 3 - Backup Power Distribution and Conversions

sponsored by APC by Schneider Electric

APC by Schneider Electric

ABSTRACT:

Power consumption has become the reference of choice when describing the size of a data center. Before the rising costs of power caught the industry’s eye, data center managers would describe their facilities in terms of square footage. Now they talk about how many megawatts the data center consumes. Check out Chapter 3 of the "Data Center Facilities Design of IT" e-book and learn about saving power at the server, the debate of AC vs DC power, using flywheels instead of batteries, and measuring your progress.
