Data Center Cooling Advancements Let you Leave Your Jacket at Home

Data Center Cooling
Data centers that used to be 55 degrees are now running comfortably at 75 degrees, which means your company is saving money, and your IT pros no longer need to bundle up to do their jobs.

Pete Sacco, President and Founder of PTS Data Center Solutions, Inc., was interviewed for a recent TechRepublic article on data center cooling:
 "...the perception is that cooler is better.
The answer is that's not the case"

Is your Data Center or Telecom Closet Performing a Rain Dance?

Thursday, January 12, 2017 – by
A friend's Broadcast Operations Center got taken down because they had a water main break that flooded their supporting server room. Water can take unexpected paths in a building and can travel along cables and trays so it's important to fire-stop portals into IT rooms, but a water main break can overwhelm a large area of a building. Drip pans with leak detection should be placed under water lines especially under joints. AquaTray or another capture and divert water system should be used over mission critical equipment. Hermetically sealed rooms can be built for infrastructure that can never go down.  Figured I'd share to hopefully help some of my other friends and colleagues prevent a catastrophe.
