<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"A data center is a facility used to house computer systems and associated components, such as telecommunications and storage systems. It generally includes redundant or backup power supplies, redundant data communications connections, environmental controls (e.g., air conditioning, fire suppression) and security devices. During the 1980s, computers started to be deployed everywhere, in many cases with little or no care about operating requirements. However, as information technology (IT) operations started to grow in complexity, companies grew aware of the need to control IT resources. The availability of inexpensive networking equipment, coupled with new standards for network structured cabling, made it possible to use a hierarchical design that put the servers in a specific room inside the company. The use of the term "data center," as applied to specially designed computer rooms, started to gain popular recognition about this time"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>DATA CENTER HANDBOOK</b> <p>Written by 59 experts and reviewed by a seasoned technical advisory board, the <i>Data Center Handbook</i> is a thoroughly revised, one-stop resource that clearly explains the fundamentals, advanced technologies, and best practices used in planning, designing, building and operating a mission-critical, energy-efficient, sustainable data center.
