Building a brick and mortar data center requires huge capitalization for many companies so that you should carefully view your options. Due to the fact that capitalization is really a problem for a lot of companies to establish their own data center, a portable or container-based data center is now considered an option.
In many symposiums around the United States, business owners are so focused on the discussions about container data center being an alternative. They knew very well that using this type of alternative is very ideal so that they can escape from tremendous expenses of building a brick and mortar data center. A friend of mine was also concern about this matter because he has no enough knowledge about this new idea about data center.
There are companies like Dell, I/O Data and SGI/Rackable which recently came out with designs for container-based data centers with great free cooling features. It is being reported of having maximum efficiency.
Data center expert analyst Matt Stansberry, director of content and publications for the Uptime Institute said: “Planning about establishing a data center is about consolidation and capacity planning. Data center managers don't make enough time for strategic planning. As budget cuts reduce staffing levels and operations teams are asked to do more work with fewer resources, managers get locked into the day-to-day firefighting; they never get out of the reactionary mode to plan ahead. The consequences can be dire. I wouldn't want to be the manager who has to go to the executive team to explain why a data center ran out of capacity sooner than expected.”
Stansberry said the creation of a data center should be considered very carefully. Remember that capitalization is such a big problem for small and medium companies. “So if you're running out of capacity, what are you going to do about it, other than plunk down a nine-figure capital expense? Are you considering moving compute loads to the cloud, increasing virtualization investments, evaluating colocation options? These aren't the kinds of projects you can handle if you don't make time for formal strategic planning across all of the silos in the organization, from server and storage management to the facilities team. Uptime Institute's digital infrastructure team will be leading intensive workshops at the symposium on how to do bring the teams together to do this kind of planning,” the expert data center analyst said.
