InfraStruxure solutions: growing at the speed of business for 10 years! Turn your data centre into a strategic business asset


Business-ready IT physical infrastructure In the late 1990s, businesses started calling for streamlined IT deployments to save time, costs, and resources in order to meet growing demand for new business applications and data storage. Companies were seeking easy-to-use solutions to keep up with IT complexities as the digital revolution gained momentum.


How could companies overcome this common challenge? The answer is found in IT physical infrastructure. Deployed within a fast, easy, agile, and efficient architecture, most mission-critical IT needs — including adds, moves, and changes — could be met at business speed.


Recognizing the benefits of this approach, APC by Schneider Electric combined power, power distribution, cooling, racks, management, and services in a single, scalable, and modular solution that could enable IT rooms and data centres to adapt easily, efficiently, and quickly to ever-changing business requirements.


Keep up with business changes As a modular architecture with ‘plug-and-play’ installation, the 2003 InfraStruxure system innovation accelerated IT deployments for the greater benefit of turning IT into a strategic asset instead of a liability. CapEx deferments and OpEx savings are realized by rightsizing power and cooling to what IT loads actually use.

InfraStruxure architecture delivers a 25 per cent increase in power and cooling capacity with a 15 per cent smaller footprint while reducing cost by 15 per cent. Today, InfraStruxure solutions can scale up to 20 MW data centres and beyond!


enabled data centres to easily and efficiently accommodate new technologies such as high-density blade servers. Likewise, integrated StruxureWare for Data Centers software protects virtualized loads by ensuring that these dynamic loads are hosted on healthy servers at all times.


Realize immediate energy effi ciency gains Integrated InRow cooling units tackled dynamic hot spots at their source — the rack — giving companies immediate efficiency gains through better cooling. More recent advancements such as StruxureWare for Data Centers software and complete data centre life cycle services enable intelligent, cost-saving energy management.


Business-wise, Future-driven.™


To date, over one million InfraStruxure configurations have been designed, turning IT into a strategic asset at business speed!
