What Challenges Are You Facing?
• Visibility• Capacity planning• Improving sustainability
• Regulatory compliance initiatives
• Reducing the total cost of ownership
6
• Visibility• Capacity planning• Sustainability• Resilience • Compliance with legislation
Business Drivers and Aims
Centralized data collection for optimal management
Reduced dependency on external resource suppliers
Actionable granular information for capacity planning
Reduced OpEx
Low energy/carbon consumption
Efficient capacity utilization
Fully compliant, green operations
7
Data Centers are dynamically growing in scale, density and complexity.
Common Obstacles
Escalating energy costs
Increasing power demands
Tracking assets and networks w/ error-prone spreadsheets
Insufficient power metering due to poor instrumentation
Uninformed deployment choices
Lost assets
Hotspots/cooling problems
Air flow management issues
Lack of accurate, correlated operational information makes it tough to overcome obstacles like these and make the best operational decisions for your facility.
8
Manual Workarounds, Higher OpEx, Missed Goals
The Unfortunate Result
• Fragmentation: As a data center becomes increasingly “fragmented”, power, space, cooling, and connectivity become unbalanced
• Moves, Adds, and Changes made without awareness of the impacts leads to:
• Lost Capacity• Misplaced or loss of assets• Lower Resilience• CapEx Expenditures
• Retrofits• New Builds
• However…this is all avoidable!

• Target right level of automation• Leverage existing systems• Treat a granular, attribute‐rich asset tracking as foundational
• Minimize risk of strategy and implementation with a phased approach
DCIM Best Practices
Address Power, Environmental, Asset, and Connectivity Needs Holistically
1
Zone 1: Building Point‐of‐Entry– Monitors the building utility metering “Point of Entry”, providing power, oil, water, and gas consumption information and CO2 emissions.
2
Zone 2: Switchboard Distribution Board ‐Monitors sub meters at the main distribution board for DC related equipment.
3
Zone 3: Plant Equipment ‐ Distributed monitoring of supporting facility services, including individual chillers, AHU, CRAC, UPS and lighting circuits.
4Zone 4: Branch Circuit Monitoring of Data Hall –Focuses on monitoring of total rack or cabinet IT loads and environmentals.
5Zone 5: Rack & Cabinet Level Monitoring –Intelligent monitoring and control of power, environmentals, and cabinet level security in addition to DCIM level asset tracking and capacity planning for the data center and enterprise.
6
Zone 6: Device Level Monitoring –Automated connectivity patch field management, as well as monitoring and control of per outlet or device power, within a data center or enterprise.
Let’s Break Down the Problem by Zones

Which Zones Do Clients Begin with?
• Pinpoint energy savings opportunities through trending reporting• Manage asset lifecycle from dock to rack to end of life• Manage capacity planning information around space, power and evironmentals• Reduce cooling costs through cooling system optimization (CFD thermal analysis)• Automated reports to simplify regulatory reporting
• Audit utility bills• Live alerts to fluctuations in utility usage• Comparison between like facilities to identify inefficiencies• Monitor Energy Reductions– collect data for regulatory compliance
• Dynamic PUE: Benchmark and Monitor Trends• Integration: Centralized data collection and reporting for analysis• Power sub-metering at main distribution boards – granular power consumption of
your supporting facility services
• Capacity Planning: Power, Cooling, Connectivity, Assets• Uptime/Resilience: Alarms and Alerts• Dashboard Reporting: Trending, Identification of Inefficiencies

Internet Business Challenges
20
• Need the ability to monitor power and environmental factors, such as temperature and humidity.
• Visibility to monitor how much space their customers are using to avoid under/over provisioning.
• Measure and improve PUE to reduce power consumption and costs while reducing carbon emissions to comply with the UK government’s Carbon Reduction Commitment Scheme.
Business ChallengesAs a rapidly growing organization, Customer Internet data center infrastructure and business systems need to be agile and scalable. As the company grew, so did the demand on key business systems and their physical infrastructure.
Resolution
21
• Improved capacity management for Co‐location customers in terms of over/under provisioning resulted in cost savings and improved energy efficiency
• Increased energy efficiency across Zen’s data centers achieving a PUE rating of 1.6
• Exceeded annual 5% target and achieved an 8% reduction in energy consumption and carbon emissions
