Hello everyone and welcome to this crucial episode! 🎧 Today we dive into the electrical system of data centers, the true backbone of modern digital infrastructure.
We will learn about the seven most common problems that cause failures in uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, such as batteries, capacitors, and connections, which can lead to disastrous data losses and costly service interruptions. A UPS failure is the main cause of unplanned outages in data centers, with an average cost of more than $740,000 per incident.
We will discover the different types of UPS, from the robust double-conversion online that offers maximum protection for large data centers, to line-interactive and offline solutions for more specific needs.
We will also explore how Power Distribution Units (PDUs) are essential for delivering electricity to each IT device. We’ll look at the difference between floor PDUs (larger and for multiple racks) and rack PDUs (similar to smart power strips). In addition, we’ll understand why busway systems are a cost-effective and flexible alternative that can significantly reduce capital costs and free up space in the data room.
Finally, we address the importance of circuit breaker discrimination to ensure that a local failure does not paralyze the entire system, limiting service interruption to the minimum necessary. Get ready to be enlightened by this deep analysis on power reliability in the digital world! 💡🔌
