Why Do Failures Occur?
Uptime Institute Data and Analysis:• Historically vast Majority of Outages are Caused by
Human Error• In 2011 Redundancy and Staffing led to 67% of Saves
(outages prevented)Field Experience with Data Center Operations:• Reviews of Dozens of Live Data Centers in the
Past 2 Years
Certain Design Solutions Increase the Chance forHuman Error while other Designs Reduce the Risk and
Allow for Saves

Cost-Effective Solutions
• Utilize Proven, Supportable Systems> Proven history of equipment in high availability data
centers• New technologies may be appropriate for innovative or academic
data centers, but not for mission critical applications
> Local, experienced technicians> Availability of critical spare parts

Cost-Effective Solutions
• “Right sized” for Load> Key equipment designed around major components
• UPS, Engine Generators, and Chillers
> Phased build out to truly allow for “pay-as-you-grow”but without impacting the critical load
• Avoid Overspending> Over provisioning of ATSs and STSs> Excessive Redundancy at transformation layer> Too many system ties
