One of the major risks to this equipment comes in the form of environmental threats if systems aren't operated in an appropriately controlled facility. Data center environmental controls try to maintain a stable environment that's friendly to electronic equipment. The first environmental characteristic that data center engineers worry about is the air temperature. Electronic equipment generates a lot of heat, and if a data center doesn't have appropriate cooling equipment, the facility can become extremely hot. Excessive heat can dramatically reduce the expected life of servers and other electronic equipment. So data center facility managers invest heavily in maintaining a temperature friendly to that equipment. This investment requires massive cooling systems, such as the one shown here on a data center roof. Now, conventional wisdom about data center…
