The Path to Efficient Energy Consumption and Cost Savings in Your Data Center

While the acquisition cost for servers is declining, the Total Cost of Ownership for housing, powering, and cooling them has increased by 500 percent since 2000. Even if an effort has been made to improve airflow management in data centers, many suffer from dramatic conditioned airflow losses (bypass airflow). Results of Uptime Insitute reveal that, on average, 60 percent of the available cooling in a typical computer room is wasted due to bypass airflow.
