How the financial industry builds a new generation of data center power platform and a new generation of data center

The financial industry is a pioneer in data center applications. In recent years, from large-scale data concentration to multi-business integration, the construction of data centers in the financial industry is rapidly evolving around the needs of business development. Now, a large concentration of data in the financial industry has taken shape. Facing new demands and industry development status, financial companies are focusing on the construction of new generation data centers. In this process, four major challenges have become increasingly prominent: data center security, data center energy saving and consumption reduction, data center management and maintenance, and data center expansion. As a data center infrastructure, the construction of power platform first needs to solve the following four problems.
First, the issue of reliability. Power supply reliability is an important guarantee for data center security. With the continuous emergence of new businesses supported by information technology, the requirements for power supply reliability in data centers in the financial industry have greatly increased. In the field of data centers, the availability index of the power platform is higher than the availability index of the data center and the availability index of the entire network system. Therefore, the power platform should be placed at the core position. For example, if the redundancy method of server power supply has changed, the power supply system should make corresponding changes; the application of blade servers and virtualization has highlighted the problem of high heat density, making the computer room environment more severe, and the cooling mode needs to be changed.
Second, the issue of energy conservation and consumption reduction. The most direct consequence of the acceleration of data center construction is the sharp increase in energy consumption. In the context of the current global energy shortage, energy conservation and consumption reduction are a major trend in the entire data center industry. my country has defined the IT industry as the third category of energy conservation and consumption reduction industries. For the enterprise itself, the sharp increase in energy consumption has greatly increased the operating costs of the data center. Energy saving and energy efficiency improvement of the data center have become an urgent requirement for the entire industry.
Third, management and maintenance issues. The computer room is a large and complex system. At the infrastructure level, its power and environmental conditioning system covers a more diverse range of equipment, including UPS, air conditioners, server cabinets, batteries, input power distribution, oil machines, temperature and humidity, Smoke sensor, access control, infrared, etc. These systems are an organic whole, affecting the whole system. The reliability of the computer room depends on the normal operation of each device and the coordination of these devices. If any link fails, it may cause huge losses. Therefore, the management of the entire system is becoming more and more important and more and more difficult.
Fourth, the issue of expansion. With the continuous expansion of business volume, IT application systems in the financial industry are expanding day by day, and the scale of servers has become increasingly large, which has brought about problems such as high energy consumption, tight data center space, and tight IT budgets. At the same time, the matching of the data center power platform is not enough, either the utilization rate is low and resources are wasted seriously; or the power supply and cooling are obviously insufficient, affecting the availability of the data center. In short, the power system is not responsive enough to the power or cooling needs of core equipment.
In response to the above problems, Emerson Network Power launched the Emerson Financial Innovation Data Center Solution. This solution has four major characteristics: high availability, high energy saving, high flexibility, and high maintainability. It can help financial industry customers solve the problems of data center construction and application, and meet the requirements of financial enterprises for computer room power security in the informatization process. , energy conservation and environmental protection and other aspects of the growing application demand.
Specifically, in terms of availability, Emerson Network Energy Power Supply System ensures the most advanced availability and reliability through reasonable input power distribution design, different levels of UPS power supply system structures and solutions, and advanced output power distribution systems. sex. Its UPS power supply system is divided into 4 levels according to different protection levels. The highest level 4 uses symmetrical dual lines and the availability can reach 99.99999%. In terms of input power distribution, this solution provides a highly reliable design, which can ensure the selective coordination of distribution switches at all levels and has reasonable planning. In terms of output power distribution, Emerson server power management system can provide the most advanced and reliable power distribution for users' most critical loads.
In terms of energy saving, this solution is based on the "energy efficiency logic" energy saving strategy, using LiebertXD high heat density refrigeration system and efficient power supply system to achieve the best energy saving state of the data center. Its SPM server power management system can also detect the operating cost of each server rack in real time, accurately calculate and measure the power consumption and power consumption of each server cabinet and each switch, so as to carry out effective energy-saving management. In terms of maintenance and management, this solution uses an industry-leading monitoring and management platform to manage operating parameter reports for the computer room power system, safety system, air conditioning system, etc., and provide local and remote alarms for faults. In terms of flexibility, this solution allows the data center to follow the development strategy of "growing while investing" and ensures smooth expansion and upgrade of the data center.
In addition, Emerson Network Power’s strong engineering implementation capabilities and power service support capabilities can enable this solution to bring more application value to users in the financial industry. At present, this solution has been applied in key areas of the financial system such as the Clearing Center of the People's Bank of China, the Information Center of the Head Office of China Construction Bank, and the Information Center of the Bank of China, and has achieved good results.
