What does the Data Center Layout and Design and Construction Kit include?
The kit includes approximately 60 downloadable files (PDF and XLSX), organised into a Platinum Tier section with six core assets, plus detailed sections for getting started, self-assessment, requirements, models, processes, performance, governance, sustainment, advanced topics and quick reference cards. All files are delivered by email within 24 business hours of purchase.
When your data centre layout is chaotic, projects run over budget, cooling fails, and compliance audits flag critical design flaws - putting your service-level agreements, regulatory licences and reputation at risk.
