the heat dissipated by electronic equipment continues to increase at an alarming rate. this occurred for products covering a wide range of applications. manufacturers of this equipment require that the equipment be maintained within an environmental envelope in order to guarantee proper operation. achievement of these environmental conditions are becoming increasingly difficult given the increases in rack heat loads and the desire for customers of such equipment to cluster racks in a small region for increased performance. this presentation will show some of the most recent advances in data center designs and best practices and also provide a view of what the future holds for housing it equipment in data centers.
