The following points demonstrate some of the key considerations that need to be worked through when implementing Data centres, be that a main Communications room in your building or site, or at an offsite location.

• Data centres can be in-house, located in a company’s own facility, containerised, or outsourced with equipment being co-located at a third-party site. Outsourcing does not necessarily mean relinquishing control of your equipment – it can be as simple as finding the right place to house that equipment.
• The Uptime Institute have produced standards and categorise data centres into four tiers. This is based on a design which gives a measurable availability. At one end of the spectrum is Tier 1. This is composed of a single path for power and cooling distribution, without redundant components, providing 99.671% availability.While at the other end is Tier 4. This is composed of multiple active power and cooling distribution paths, has redundant components, and is fault tolerant, providing 99.995% availability.
• Data centres will typically have a raised floor with cabling ducts overhead or underneath. These pathways feed the infrastructure requirements that connect the cabinets together, for both Data and Power.
• The environment is controlled in terms of areas such as temperature & humidity.Facilities will generally include power supplies, backup power, chillers, cabling, fire and water detection systems and security controls.
