Determining Total Cost of Ownership for Data Center and Network Room Infrastructure

Overview This paper describes an improved method for measuring Total Cost of Ownership of data center and network room physical infrastructure and relating these costs to the overall Information Technology infrastructure. Along with examples, the cost drivers of TCO are quantified. The largest cost driver is shown to be unnecessary unabsorbed costs resulting from the oversizing of the infrastructure.
