Enterprise Data Center Design and Methodology (Sun Blueprints)

by RobSnevely (Author)

Synopsis

This is a practical guide to designing a data center from inception through construction. The fundamental design principles take a simple, flexible, and modular approach based on accurate, real-world requirements and capacities. This approach contradicts the conventional (but totally inadequate) method of using square footage to determine basic capacities like power and cooling requirements.
