Peer Incite: Grant, a Sr. Storage Admin at a large bank discusses how heterogeneous storage virtualization can help reduce the budget for 2009.
WikitipUPS vs Surge ProtectorA surge protector provides just that—surge protection. In addition to surge protection, a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) continually regulates incoming voltage and provides battery backup in the event of a power failure. You'll often see surge protectors plugged into a UPS for added surge protection and additional output receptacles (local electrical codes apply). Note that a UPS does not take the place of whole-house/facility surge protection devices often utilized for lightning protection. For more topics like this, see the UPS and Power Management Fundamentals Handbook from Eaton: http://www.switchon.eaton.com/Education/Resources/index.html

Featured Case Study
Virtualization Energizes Cal State UniversityJohn Charles is the CIO of California State University, East Bay (CSUEB) and Rich Avila is Director, Server & Network Operations. In late 2007 they were both looking down the barrel of a gun. The total amount of power being used in the data center was 67KVA. The maximum power from the current plant was 75kVA. PG&E had informed them that no more power could be delivered. They would be out of power in less than six months. A new data center was planned, but would not be available for two years. |

Featured How-To Note |
Storage Virtualization Design and DeploymentA main impediment to storage virtualization is the lack of multiple storage vendor (heterogeneous) support within available virtualization technologies. This inhibits deployment across a data center. The only practical approach is either to implement a single vendor solution across the whole of the data center (practical only for small and some medium size data centers) or to implement virtualization in one or more of the largest storage pools within a data center. | |||
