Data Centers and Computer Rooms

Franklin Lakes, N.J. – PTS Data Center Solutions today announced the publication of a white paper entitled, "The Difference between Data Centers and Computer Rooms." The white paper examines the functional requirements and philosophy of data center design, and elaborates on the differences between computer room and data center design criteria.
PTS Data Center Solutions President and white paper author, Peter Sacco explains, “The differences between a data center and a computer room are often misunderstood. Furthermore, the terms used to describe the location where companies provide a secure, power protected, and environmentally controlled space are often used inappropriately. This paper provides a basis for understanding the differences between these locations and how they relate to each other.”

The white paper describes the typical topology of a data center and the major systems that go into data center design, along with the key network and server infrastructure that makes up any computer room location. In light of these considerations, the white paper then examines the influence of space, budget and time requirements on a computer room or data center design project.
