Over the next week we’ll be blogging about how UPS are required and configured to achieve Tier I, Tier II, Tier III and Tier IV levels.
The Tier system has been developed by The Uptime Institute as an objective basis for comparing the capabilites of one particular design topology over another or to compare groups of sites.
We will be showing that (at least as far as power is concerned) how we can have move from Tier to Tier level depending upon the requirements of the data center, and how best to utilise these classifications into everday computer rooms. After all, not every business will need the stability of a modern data center.
Watch this space.
