Tags: data

Overview The requirement to deploy high-density servers within single racks is presenting data center managers with a challenge. Vendors are now designing servers which will demand up to 20kW of cooling if installed in a single rack. With most data centers designed to cool an average of no more than 2kW per rack, some innovative cooling strategies will be required. This paper provides a ten-step approach on how to increase the cooling efficiency, the cooling capacity, and the power density of existing data centers.
