Abstract
Data centers are the information factories of the digital evolution. Creating, storing, processing, distributing, and analyzing data all need energy. Therefore, data center industry consumes energy more than 2 percent of the global electricity consumption. Energy efficiency need to discuss at the outset of data center design. The root cause of oversizing data center design is the research question because this will affect investment or CAPEX and long-term operating costs or OPEX of data center as long as data center life cycle (DCLC). Data center measurement in power usage effectiveness (PUE) unit helps data center owners and consultants realized on relationship between oversizing data center design and total cost of ownership (TCO). The research results propose modular data center as a solution to handle uncertainty demand of IT equipment, scalability for growth as your need, flexibility in any size of infrastructure, fast deployment because of prefabricated design, and more efficiency by applying energy management platform called data center infrastructure management (DCIM).
