| Overview : |
|
The current economic downturn has increased the magnitude and difficulty of the challenges facing data center managers. Many data center managers have adopted drastic strategies to deal with flat or even declining budgets, opting to abandon their traditional refresh cycles, and keeping servers that would normally be decommissioned in operation for an extra year-or more.
There was a time when this strategy would have made perfect sense. But advances in server technology have transformed the mathematics of data center operation. Although it may seem counterintuitive, the best economic strategy for many data centers is to accelerate refresh cycles, not extend them. |
