Cooling and power are two components that every data center requires. These complex issues are constantly evolving, and education is key to keeping up with new developments.
DCProfessional Development (DCPro), the esteemed performance division of DatacenterDynamics that provides training courses and certification, announces dates for two upcoming data center development courses in San Francisco that will cover these topics in detail.
The first three-day class, Data Center Cooling Professional, will take place Dec. 2 to 4; and the second, Data Center Power Professional, will run from Dec. 9 to 11. These courses are designed for decision-makers who are involved in new or existing facilities.
Data Center Cooling Professional will examine the thermodynamics of cooling in an easy-to-understand way focused on the application of concepts that students can use in their own data centers immediately. Among the main topics covered will be free cooling, optimization and energy efficiency. Day 3 of this course is an interactive day. Participants will work with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling and apply it to different data center types to understand environmental impacts, design and system constraints, and energy efficiency optimization related to cooling scenarios.
Data Center Power Professional will provide an understanding of how power requirements impact the way data centers are operated. This course provides a comprehensive understanding of key challenges related to infrastructure investments. It will cover the fundamentals of power distribution, critical power components and maintenance/safety, among many other subjects.
DCProfessional Development is currently accepting registrations for both courses. For more information about these courses, or about DCProfessional, email Agnes Mkpeti.
