Ten Steps to Solving Cooling Problems Caused by High-Density Server Deployment

Overview High-density servers present a significant cooling challenge. Vendors are now designing servers that can demand over 20 kW of cooling per rack. With most data centers designed to cool an average of no more than 2 kW per rack, innovative strategies must be used for proper cooling of high-density equipment. This paper provides a ten-step approach for increasing cooling efficiency, cooling capacity, and power density in existing data centers.

IBM to sell supercomputing server

With the density levels you're starting to get today with blades and servers like the 575, fairly specialised power and cooling is once again coming to the forefront" of data centre operations, Haff said.

Wi-fi success in the City not all about Cloud density

The network density compares favourably to other cities around the world that have also embraced citywide wi-fi, such as Taipei in Taiwan, experts say. Taipei currently has around 4,200 mesh nodes which cover 52 square miles - a density of slightly...

Data centre in a box

The tightly integrated cooling units positioned between each rack contain water-cooled heat exchangers (to cool the hot air before it enters the next rack) and fans (to move the air around the container in a closed loop).

The greening of IT: Cooling costs

BT's server density does not exceed 3kW or 4kW per rack, a level where fresh air cooling is effective. Another key strategy to reduce the cooling load is to scale back the server density. Many vendors are pushing high-density racks requiring 20kW...

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
