Schneider Electric, the global specialist in energy management and automation, announced a new Book white - No. 228: ". Data Center Analysis Architectures Supporting Open Project Compute" the authors are Kevin Brown, the first vice president of Data Center Solutions at Schneider Electric, and Wendy Torell, senior research analyst at Data Center science Center Schneider Electric.
"open Compute Project (OCP) has had a significant impact on the design of the data center, focusing to date is mainly at the rack "said Kevin Brown ." However, there are important implications for the upstream energy supply to be taken into account to ensure that the expected levels of redundancy and maintainability can be delivered and the flexibility to support both traditional equipment and OCP "
new white Paper # 228:". Analysis of Data center Architectures supporting Open Compute Project, " addresses three critical issues on the electrical architecture to help data center managers in the decision making process when considering an OCP adoption:
- How OCP rack / designs server affect the upstream electrical architecture
- can I still get the 2N redundancy (sometimes called level 3)
- How can I support the traditional burdens and OCP in the same center of data?
Wendy Torell, Senior Research Analyst, Schneider Electric Data Center Science Center.
White Paper # 228 describes the costs comparisons between a number of scenarios including a 2N traditional architecture data center, OCP specific 1N architecture, OCP architecture specific 2N and 2N a simplified architecture with the flexibility to support mixed (ie traditional and specific loads OCP).
In general terms, compared to a traditional data center 2N, a specific OCP 1N data center "offered savings capital spending by 45% when including the MT till equipment and including power supplies and rack servers. "white Paper shows that reducing redundancy and power differences server represents the majority of savings.
"An OCP specific 2N data center offered savings of 25%. Of these savings, 14% is attributed to architecture simplification and is therefore independent of the type of load."
a simplified 2N architecture that is flexible support for mixed loads "a small premium of 3% on a specific architecture OCP." mixed load environments are most likely to be adopted in coming years as data centers migrate their traditional equipment end of life, the authors of Schneider Electric. The white paper provides a sensitivity analysis to show how the cost of server power and the feed mixture (%) of the impacts of global architectural costs.
