APC Plugs Data Center U.

WEST KINGSTON, R.I. -- Matthew Lewis needed answers. The data center he oversees at Bank of America was barely seven years old, yet it was already stressed. It was at maximum capacity for power and cooling, and there were airflow problems and overall efficiency issues.

I needed to respond to questions about how many systems we could support or whether we could add more systems in the same room,” said Lewis, Assistant Vice President, Technology Manager, at Bank of America. A Google search landed him at American Power Conversion’s Web site. “APC has great white papers available,” Lewis said. “In one of them, I saw references to Data Center University.”
