Unifying ideas and initiatives: Data Center Stack Framework & OpenDCME
The current indexes for data center performance, such as DCiE, EUE and PUE are not sufficient to drive data center efficiency. These indexes focus only on the power or energy consumption of the facilities. Each metric in itself says nothing about how efficient a data center really is. In order to drive and improve efficiency, [...]
Doing Your Energy Math
Energy Metrics To improve the energy efficiency of existing data centers, as well as making decisions on new data center there are some metrics being used: Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), Data Center Infrastructure Efficiency (DCIE) and Data Center Productivity (DCP). Ideally, these metrics and processes will help determine if the existing data center can be [...]
