Data Center Design Considerations

• Facilities

> Dual UPS

> Two Generators

> Spread LoadSpread Load

> Raised Floor vs Overhead Cooling

• Load Distribution Load Distribution

> Leverage “PODs”

> Each POD provides cooling and power for two rowsp g p

> Add PODs as server population grows

(23)

Supporting High Density

• From 3 – 4 kW / Rack to 10+kW/Rack

> 75W /sq ft – 200W / sqft

• Separating High Density Racks p g g y

• Rack & Row-level cooling

• Weight considerations

> Uniform Load & Point Load

(24)

Sun's Approach to NextGen Data Center pp

• Scalable, repeatable, modular “Pod” architecture

“Clean Sheet” Design Using Off-The-Shelf Components

Scalable, repeatable, modular Pod architecture

> Modular power busway

> Overhead cooling units

> Simplified cabling

> Supports all product types

> Energy-efficient technology

> Metering and measurementg

> Cross-function design team

> Quick, easy wins

Looking Forward

• Simplify, Consolidation

> Optimize, not Rightsize (80/20 rule)

> Focus on Optimizing the Compute Platform not just Server Storage Network independently

Server, Storage, Network independently

> Standardize, Virtualize, Automate

• Seamless deployment across DC

> Active-Active DC, Address DR Requirements
