Determining TCO for Data Center and
Network Room Infrastructure
Predicting and measuring total cost of ownership (TCO) for the physical infrastructure for network rooms and data centers is required for ROI analysis and other business decision processes. In addition, an understanding of the cost drivers of TCO provides insight into opportunities to control costs. Many users are surprised when they consider that the TCO for physical infrastructure may be comparable to or larger than the TCO of the supported IT equipment. This white paper describes a method for determining the TCO of physical data center and network room infrastructure. In this context, the physical infrastructure means all of the facility equipment needed to provide power, cooling, and physical protection of IT equipment, but not the IT equipment itself.
