According to AFCOM, power failures will interrupt data center operations at over 90 percent of all companies in the next five years.






According to a recent AFCOM survey, insufficient space is the biggest issue facing data center managers today.





Data center power requirements have increased an average of 8% per year, according to a recent AFCOM study.




In just two years 44.5% of AFCOM members’ data centers will be incapable of supporting business requirements because of capacity constraints of their data center.
According to The Meta Group (a bench marking company):
  • 50% annual capacity increase is typical,
  • Doubling of floor space required every 3 – 5 years,
  • Data center floor space cost: US $700 to $1200/ft2 (without the building),
  • Facilities upgrade cost: $8 to $12 million over a 3- year period
    •  




    According to the Wall Street Journal (January 7, 2009), corporate / commercial data centers will grow yearly over 4.75%.





    Company IT budgets typically run between .75 to 2% of the yearly sales of the company






    An average data center consumes the same energy as 25,000 homes.







    According to AFCOM, data centers expand every 7.2 years.
     






    Data center energy consumption is increasing 12% annually.
