A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Architecture Design
Data Center Rack Floor Plan and Facility Layout Design
The success of the data center floor plan design process is dependent on the participation of the facility design team and the information technology design team. The facility design team will consist of the building architect and the electrical, mechanical, and structural engineers. The information technology design team will consist of those responsible for the network topology, server and storage platform architecture, and network cabling infrastructure design. Network switches that are classified as top‐of‐rack or end‐of‐row switches often have the airflow through the switch from back to front. The designer of any system, whether it is for power distribution, cooling distribution, or network architecture, must balance scalability and reliability to ensure that the appropriately sized building blocks are selected for the initial design and for the future incremental increases in capacity. The data center layout should be defined into various access types such as noncritical, critical facilities, and critical IT.
