2. Issues in the Data Centre
• Power constraints
• Space considerations
• Heat and cooling
• Support equipment for the servers and
network
• Increasing need for storage
• Captial costs
• Operational costs
3. Useful information
• Getting more power is difficult or
unreasonably expensive.
• Servers live in cabinets
• Cabinets are measured in U (2.5”)
• As Blades (lots of servers in one box) have
taken over they have made things worse as
they use even more power and produce lots
of heat.
4. How to reduce your server costs?
• VeryPC J200 series dual servers
– Half the power consumption
– Half the heat output
– Twice the servers per rack (84 J220 units )
• VeryPC L200 series storage servers
– Low power consumption
– 252Tb of storage per rack (21 L200 units)
– Great data speeds
5. How much can you save?
• By changing one server you can save around
£900 per year
• Over a standard 5 year life the server pays for
itself at today’s electricity rates.
• When used as a virtualisation platform you
can expect to make savings in the region of
£8100 per year (at a 9:1 consolidation ratio)
6. VeryPC and VMWare
How to get more for less?
• Virtualise with VeryPC and VMWare
– Reduce the number of physical servers needed
– Make management easier
– Under used servers now can be turned off.
– You can increase the number of servers in seconds
– You can make down time a thing of the past
7. Interested?
• Servers are as individual as the company using
them. We understand that.
• When you want to talk about how to move
onto our server platforms please ask.
• We have a number of ways of financing our
servers and desktop solutions, again please
ask.
