Do you know the loading and current power and cooling capability of your data
center? Let integraONE can help you find out. We’ve worked in a very diverse group
of client environments, from commercial, to education and healthcare, to help them
avoid installing equipment that exceeds the design density of the data center, and
the resultant stresses on the power and cooling systems. These clients have seen a
dramatic decrease in downtime from overloads, overheating, and loss of
redundancy.

If your data center is anything like the typical data center, it is not fully utilizing its
available power and cooling capacity, which reduces the system efficiency and drives
up electrical power consumption. With the proliferation of high density IT equipment,
the requirement to control TCO, and the rapid change and refresh of IT equipment,
the pressure to operate your data center with more predictability is paramount. 

We know from experience that it is possible to dramatically reduce the electrical
consumption of the data center through appropriate design of the network-critical
physical infrastructure and through the design of the IT architecture.

Our data center specialists understand the varying economic and performance
considerations that different market segments face when their data centers are
grossly over-designed and under-utilized, or when safety margins are compromised.

integraONE helps our clients assess current and future power consumption needs

and then architect solutions, which consider:

• where to deploy the next server so as not to impact the availability of existing
  equipment
• what the best location is to deploy the proposed equipment, from a power
  and cooling availability perspective
• if new equipment can be installed without negatively impacting safety
  margins, such as redundancy and backup runtime
• availability of power or cooling redundancy under fault or maintenance
  conditions
• if new hardware technology, such as blade servers, can be deployed using
  the existing power and cooling infrastructure
• when current power and cooling infrastructure limits will be reached and will
  require additional capacity

integraONE has successfully helped clients maximize the efficiency of their data
centers through proper data center power and cooling methods.  We have achieved
results for a variety of clients in the K-12, higher education, government and
commercial business arenas. 

integraONE's Dave Luancing was one of the first in the mid-atlantic region to
received certification on Cisco's Advanced Data Center. Read more...
