Data Center Planning
by John Herbert | Director
Business today relies on continuity, living in a 24-7-365 environment means datacenter planning must meet the needs of today and those of tomorrow.
And when international organizations need new facilities, they rely on Kelcroft because Kelcroft is one of the few firms with international datacenter infrastructure design, and planning products to keep your facility operation 24/7.
Fault tolerant facilities to support your business 24-7-365.
Hot Spots and Outages
Heat load, and its management is a common data centre difficultly,
as hardware is upgraded, power consumption increases, heat load density increasing
pressure on the often overstretched air conditioning, Kelcroft helps create
cooling strategies, that often recover lost cooling capacity, and helping you
solve hot spot problems.
Space is always at a premium in the mission critical environment, procuring more
datacenter accommodation is neither quick or easy. Is your datacenter E&M infrastructure capable of accommodating
more sophisticated high density hardware or will that cause hot zones, or hot spots?
Kelcroft helps you get the right answer.
