Increasing thermal loads at Data Center operations combined with demands for increased operating security require operators to look for innovative methods of real-time thermal management. All corporate data operations require 24/7 uptime. In the event of a major outage the Disaster Recovery site's performance can literally determine the fate of the company. A major multinational manufacturer has recently added Thermal Security (the ability to adapt to and monitor changing thermal conditions) to its Disaster Recovery site to assure uninterrupted operations. As a side benefit, the solution also provides more efficient cooling. The greater efficiency will pay for the entire project in less than a year in electric savings and continue to add to the bottom line in subsequent years.
