2 Data Center Age Profile Gartner Group Survey

3 Legacy Data Centers Challenges Under Powered - Room or Racks Inadequate Air Delivery Inadequate Monitoring Capabilities Inefficient Cooling Cabling Challenges Budget 3

4 Choices in Handling Change Build Cloud Colocation The Best Choice May Be To Extend the Life of Your Existing Data Center 4

5 Extend the Life of the Data Center FACT: Pressures on cost will increase Step 1: Unlock hidden or stranded capacity Assessments & Audits Under-utilized servers Virtualization Decommission servers Redeploy power & cooling Step 2: Improve Measuring & Monitoring Define, Measure, Analyze, Control Step 3: Densify Your Data Center 5

6 Visualize the data center floor Avocent Data Center Planner Inventory Mapping and Planning Tool for Physical Devices in Data Center Visualize infrastructure down to the rack Model current and future rack capacities Track equipment throughout its lifecycle Perform what if scenarios

7 Reduce time to provision equipment Avocent Data Center Planner Less time required to plan equipment installs Optimize installation based on available space, power & air

8 Track Rack Capacity - Power, Cooling, Space Avocent Data Center Planner Effectively Manage The Data Center as a System

9 Extending The Life of Your Data Center

10 Intelligent, integrated infrastructure in a self contained line-up Needs Addressed Integrated design Standardization Low 1 st cost & operating cost Availability Speed of deployment Applications Capacity: 20kW Racks: 3-6 Key Applications: Small data centers; remote sites

11 Single line of racks Complete and integrated data center infrastructure 3-6 racks (up to 20kW) Integrated Cooling Airflow Management Fire Suppression UPS Power Distribution Monitoring

12 SmartRow TM Airflow Management

13 SmartRow TM Benefits Efficient Significant energy savings from enclosed precision cooling system, variable capacity and intelligent controls Optimizes space efficiency through integrated system Economical Room neutral: No effect on existing space Reduce cost of installation: no need to undertake expensive upgrades to fire suppression, cooling capacity or flooring Interoperable Can be deployed in just weeks: simple in design & deployment Local data center experts and service teams for configuration, installation, maintenance, repair Control Monitors temperature and controls precision cooling operating levels accordingly Monitors equipment for quicker response & resolution

14 SmartRow TM Design & Cost Example Situation: deploy 18 kw of IT to a non-it ready room Conventional Design 18 kw, 288 sq ft 1 rows, 6 racks Ceiling mounted ducted cooling (6) 5 kva UPS Room renovation, fire suppression SmartRow 18 kw, 288 sq ft 1 row, 6 racks 1 Liebert Challenger 6 Liebert GXT 5 kva Room neutral

15 SmartRow TM Cost Comparison Room Costs contractor, installation, engineering services Infrastructure Equipment UPS, distribution, cooling, racks, fire suppression Annual Energy Consumption power & cooling equipment energy use Conventional SmartRow Cost Savings % Savings $60,000 $43,000 $17,000 28% $105,000 $109,000 -$4,000-3% Total CapEx $165,000 $152,000 $13,000 8% $8,800 $6,400 $2,400 27% 5 Year OpEx $44,000 $32,000 $12,000 27% 5 Year TCO $209,000 $184,000 $25,000 12% Room Savings Equipment Savings Energy Savings Room neutral, fewer services to retrofit room into an IT space Pre-engineered, integrated precision cooling, ducting, distribution and fire suppression Airflow management, variable capacity, intelligent controls

16 Intelligent, integrated infrastructure using row-based building blocks Applications Capacity: Most cost effective up to 400kW Floor: Raised, non-raised Applications: Small and medium data centers; high-density zones Needs Addressed Efficiency: OPEX & CAPEX Flexibility Availability Standardization Interoperability
