Data Centers—Strategic Planning, Design, Construction, and Operations
In a typical data center, electrical energy is used to operate Information and Communication Technology (ICT) equipment and its supporting facilities. This chapter describes energy use that accelerates global warming and results in climate changes, flood, drought, and food shortage. It introduces strategic planning of data centers applying best practices in design and operations. Rapidly increasing electricity demand by data centers for information processing and mobile communications outpaces improvements in energy efficiency. The chapter addresses lessons learned from natural disasters. Training plays a vital role in successful energy‐efficient design and safe operations. By collective effort, we can apply best practices to radically accelerate speed of innovation to plan, design, build, and operate data centers. In addition to natural disasters, terrorist attack to the Internet's physical infrastructure is vulnerable and could be devastating. It is imperative to have detailed business continuity (BC) and disaster recovery (DR) plans well prepared and executed.
