Best Practices in Protecting the Technology Systems Revolutionizing Healthcare
This paper outlines an approach to power protection that addresses the problems that accompany a distributed approach. The centralized approach to power protection presented here enables healthcare organizations to achieve higher availability and scalability for future growth at lower cost and should be considered for all new healthcare facilities and, whenever possible, in retrofit situations. Emerson Network Power has developed three centralized UPS configurations specifically for healthcare settings, which we recommend based on the level of protection and seamlessness of operation desired.

Choosing System Architecture and Cooling Fluid for High Heat Density Cooling Solutions
The traditional raised floor cooling is not designed to cool high heat densities. Certain baseline measures can be taken to optimize the functioning of the traditional cooling system, primarily by optimizing air flow in the room so hot and cold air does not mix. However, adding supplemental cooling currently is the best solution to cool the hot racks and zones that occur in high density environments and generate sensible heat. Supplemental cooling can use water or refrigerant-based cooling technologies and is adaptable to open or closed system architectures. In this document, you'll learn the pros and cons of these cooling fluids and system architectures, as well as how they guide decision making about the most appropriate supplemental cooling technologies for particular data center applications.

Energy Logic: Reducing Data Center Energy Consumption by Creating Savings that Cascade Across System
A number of associations, consultants and vendors have promoted best practices for enhancing data center energy efficiency. These practices cover everything from facility lighting to cooling system design, and have proven useful in helping some companies slow or reverse the trend of rising data center energy consumption. However, most organizations still lack a cohesive, holistic approach for reducing data center energy use. This paper shows how Energy Logic can deliver a 50 percent or greater reduction in data center energy consumption without compromising performance or availability.
