ABSTRACT:
System planning can be the Achilles' heel of a data center physical infrastructure project. Mistakes in data center build and upgrade projects can result in costly delays, cost overruns, wasted time, and a compromised system. This white paper shows you how to prevent defects caused by oversights or misinformed decisions during the planning stages. Topics covered include:
The different planning stages
How to transform an initial project idea into a detailed installation plan
An overview of the framework for organizing, understanding, and tracking the logical sequence that carries the system design from concept to blueprint
