27 Critical Power Scenarios Technology & Systems Overview Reliability is a necessity. But your data center needs more than just support systems architecture and technology that works. Together with our systems partners, we deliver integrated support system elements that not only work together seamlessly, but also provide energy efficiency, adaptability, and critical power continuity no matter what the availability requirements of your data center. 2 Technology Overview

28 A Solid IT Critical Infrastructure Requires Balancing Key Performance Concepts Consider Configurations And Equipment Selections That Balance Tradeoffs Designing a solid critical infrastructure requires considering power distribution configurations and equipment selections that balance the concerns of Availability, Adaptability, Maintainability and Efficiency. The loss of business critical information and services in just one critical IT power outage could wipe out any savings configured into the installation of the system, as well as any potential ROI projected from efficiency, maintenance and future savings. Comprehensive performance monitoring of the key facets of data center operation help to steadily improve overall availability, efficiency and owner value. Availability Availability is a measure of the overall uptime of the data center. Managing availability requires balancing the costs of losing access to information or services against installing and managing an infrastructure that supports a predetermined level of uptime. Maintainability Maintainability is an expression which conveys the ease and risk of maintaining the power distribution system while minimizing, or even eliminating, the need to shutdown IT equipment for maintenance and service. Dynamic Critical Infrastructure Adaptability Adaptability is an expression of the power system design s ability to accommodate future changes in equipment, layout, and loads. Acceptable design is a balance between initial cost and the potential cost of implementing future changes while continuing to meet the other goals of the data center. Efficiency Now more than ever, energy efficiency is key to any data center. Because certain power distribution configurations and equipment selections are more efficient than others, choices are necessary to balance between the fundamentals of availability and efficiency. 2.1
