The NERSC facility is transitioning to a new building housed at the LBNL main campus in the 2015 timeframe. This state of the art facility is energy efficient, providing year-round free air and water cooling, is initially provisioned for 12.5 MW power and capable of up to 42 MW power, has two office floors, a 20K square foot HPC floor with seismic isolation and a mechanical floor. Substantial...

HP IT consolidated from 85 ancient data centers running old IT technology to six new mega data centers with modern IT running transformed applications in the late 2000’s. That achievement resulted in (literally) billions saved through a meshing of significantly more efficient data centers, utilization of then-current IT technology, and application transformation. Since achieving that, HP IT...

This presentation will give an overview of the recent efforts to establish an accurate and consistent inventory and stock management for CERN data centre assets. The underlying tool, Infor EAM (http://www.infor.com/solutions/eam/), was selected because of its wider usage over many years in other areas at CERN. The presentation will focus on the structuring of the IT assets data and how it is...

Energy consumption is an increasing concern for data centers. This contribution summarizes recent energy efficiency upgrades at the Port d’Informació Científica (PIC) in Barcelona, Spain which have considerably lowered energy consumption. The upgrades were particularly challenging, as they involved modifying the already existing machine room, which is shared by PIC with the general IT services...

In today’s Federal Information Technology world you are face with many challenges. To name a few Cyber-attacks, un-funded mandates to consolidate data centers, new IT acquisitions laws requiring de-duplication with agency level CIO oversight implemented by the Federal Information Technology Acquisition Reform Act (FITARA), aging equipment and data center infrastructure. Each of these...
