7 Data Center Defined
8 The Data Center Is: Large Heat Source Mechanical Engineer Large Electrical Load Electrical Engineer The Heart of Our Network Hospital IT Staff Our Most Critical Space CIO Expensive CFO RISK! Security Director It Depends On your Viewpoint Page 8
9 Official Definition Data Center A building or portion of a building whose primary function is to house a computer room and its support areas ANSI/BICSI Page 9
10 Data Center Components Computer Room Network Core Switching Servers Storage Cabling Power Distribution Cooling Distribution (Most Critical IT Space) Support Areas Entrance Room(s) Electrical Room(s) Mechanical Rooms(s) Operations Center Crisis Response Room Maintenance Areas Support Staff Offices Loading Docks Receiving/Storing Areas Battery Rooms Telecommunications Rooms (Enables everything that happens) Page 10
11 Expanded (Functional) Definition Data Center A building or portion of a building whose primary function is to house a computer room and its support areas 1, designed as a set of interdependent systems operating together to create the processing and networking capabilities required to meet the current business demands. 1. ANSI/BICSI Page 11
12 Hospital and Data Center Trends
13 Hospital Trends Electronic Health Records More Processing More Bandwidth More Storage More Risk Big Data Electronic Health Information Exchange Radiology reports Lab results Clinical Care Summaries Medication lists F Data sharing inside and outside of the creating organization Page 13
14 Hospital Trends Bottom Line It s a connected world Healthcare providers rely on connected systems to provide and receive patient information Services are being delivered electronically Patient diagnostics and historical data are online Critical systems are integrated Everything Relies on the Availability of Electronic Data Page 14
15 Data Center Trends THE OLD DAYS (15 Years Ago) Simple Backups 24 Hour Replacement Contracts Disaster Recovery Fire, flood, tornado Checklist Management Anticipate every disaster Hot sites TODAY Tier IV = 2(N+1),.4 hour, % Worms, Hackers, Backdoors Terrorism Political Concerns Power grid failure Liability and Regulatory Compliance Cascading Events Handle unexpected disaster Fwithout downtime Page 15
16 Data Center General Trends Greater focus on availability and reliability Extreme power and cooling requirements Increased Focus on preventing Data Loss Consolidation of servers Virtualization Struggles with predicting growth rates Converging low-voltage systems More Focus on Efficiency and Cost of Operations PUE Dark Data Centers Page 16
17 Coming Together Electronic Data Bandwidth Connectivity Complexity Availability Reliability Services Efficiency Everything Relies on the Availability of Electronic Data Page 17
18 Availability and Reliability
19 What Happens When our Data Center Goes Down? We lose: Link to the outside world Server based applications Storage availability Ability to work remotely Connectivity Systems availability Reputation Everything Relies on the Availability of Electronic Data Page 19
20 Availability vs Reliability Reliability is the ability of a system or component to perform its required functions under stated conditions for a specified period of time Availability is the probability that a component or system is in a condition to perform its intended function affected by more events than a failure requiring repair or replacement of a component or system Availability = Uptime / Total Time (within the observation interval) Page 20
21 Reliability Risk Metrics Failure Risks Mean Time to Failure (MTTF) Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) Susceptibility to natural disasters Fault tolerance Single Points of Failure in a system Maintainability Maintenance Programs Page 21
22 Availability Classifications % Availability = 5 Minutes of Downtime per Year ANSI/BICSI and TIA Classes, 5 Sub groups New Industry Standard 0 = No redundancy 4 = Component AND System Redundancy Uptime Institute Tier Standards and Certifications Proprietary to Uptime Institute Tier 1 = Basic Site Tier 4 = Fault Tolerant 2N+1 Redundancy = 2 Complete Systems + 1 extra component Page 22
23 Tiering For Dummies TIER I/Class 0 and 1 Car without a spare tire. Stop the car and wait for it to be fixed. TIER II/Class 2 Four tires and a spare. Stop, fix the flat, drive on. TIER III/Class 3 Run Flat tires. Drive slower until you can replace the tire. TIER IV/Class 4 Change the tires, transmission, and engine while driving at 60MPH. Page 23
24 9 s and N s 9 s of availability Measure of uptime expressed as a percentage (i.e. 99.9%) Five 9 s = % Availability o Equates to five minutes of downtime per year o Each additional 9 adds 50% to the data center cost. N s of redundancy Redundancy applied to components, systems, services, etc. Can be UPS systems, Switches, CRACs, etc. 2N+1 = 2 times the required number + 1 extra Page 24
25 How Much Redundancy is EnoughE ETo Guarantee Availability? Page 25

29 Space Planning Site Selection Where should you put the DC? Adjacencies What should be near the DC? What should not? Layout How should the DC space be arranged? Page 29
30 Space Planning Site Selection Stand Alone DC Location Criteria Availability of and access to reliable Telecommunications Availability of and access to reliable Power Other Utilities (Water, Sanitation, Natural Gas, Etc.) Transportation Access Property adjacencies Environmental Influences (Seismic, Flooding, Air Quality, Wind) Separation from your primary or backup data center Page 30
31 Space Planning Site Selection DC in a Hospital Location Criteria No patient access Not on ground floor or below Protected from outside walls Access to freight elevator Not near EMI/RFI sources Not near sensitive equipment No foreign piping systems in/over the space Away from large equipment (air handlers, MV Transformers, etc.) No Drains running through the computer room! (Avoid all water sources) Page 31

39 Cooling / Thermal Management The primary goal is to deliver properly cooled air, in the correct volume, directly in front of all active equipment. Page 39
40 Without Isolation of Return Air Path Page 40
41 Return Air Path Isolation Hot air is physically segregated from cold air in return air duct Rear door is sealed to prevent exhaust air from leaking into room Air Dams and filler panels in front of cabinet prevent air recirculation inside cabinet Room A/C is easy to manage, with little regard to concentrated heat loads Cabinets can be placed and oriented any way desired Cold air delivery can be shared throughout room with fewer zone issues Page 41
42 Cooling / Thermal Management HVAC Design should provide for Control Filtration Direct cooled equipment Avoidance of recirculation and bypass air Redundant cooling systems to meet the class design. Page 42

46 Structured Cabling The fiber and copper cabling that connects all of the networked components and distribution areas of the computer room. Consists of: Fiber Single Mode and/or 50 Micron Laser Optimized Multi-Mode (OM4 Recommended) Copper Category 6A or better Proprietary Cabling (some switch manufacturers) 10 Gig backbone minimum Migration path to 40/100 gig (25 gig?)

62 Services and Maintenance An insufficient maintenance plan will result in extended downtime. Regularly scheduled maintenance must be carefully planned and performed by persons familiar with the entire system and all inter-dependencies Page 62
63 Conclusion
64 Design for Availability Hospitals require a high level of data availability to operate efficiently Data center designs need to focus on systems availability By designing for availability in the data center, we can help ensure hospital operations are not interrupted due to lack of electronic services and data Everything Relies on the Availability of Electronic Data Page 64
