Data Center Mgt. System Req.

System Components (Top Level)

Six core components:

  • Facility: Data center physical infrastructure
  • Data List: Data management and cataloging
  • Data Converter: Data format conversion
  • Network: Network infrastructure
  • Server: Server hardware
  • Software (Database): Applications and database systems

Universal Mandatory Requirements

Fundamental requirements applied to ALL components:

  • Stability (24/7 HA): 24/7 High Availability – All systems must operate continuously without interruption
  • Performance: Optimal performance assurance – All components must meet required performance levels

Component-Specific Additional Requirements

1. Data List

  • Sampling Rate, Computing Power, HW/SW Interface

2. Data Converter

  • Data Capacity, Computing Power, Program Logic (control facilities), High Availability

3. Network

  • Private NW, Bandwidth, Architecture (L2/L3, Ring/Star), UTP/Optic, Management Include

4. Server

  • Computing Power, Storage Sizing, High Availability, External (Public Network)

5. Software/Database

Computing with supers

From Claude with some prompting
This diagram titled “Computing works with supers” illustrates the structure and operational principles of modern high-performance computing systems. Key features include:

  1. Power Management: The “Making Power” section features a power icon labeled “Super,” indicating the massive power supply required for high-performance computing. This is emphasized by the phrase “Super Energy is required.”
  2. Central Processing Unit (CPU): Responsible for “Making Infra” and “Making Logic,” performing basic computational functions.
  3. Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) and AI: Located below the CPU, the GPU is directly connected to an AI model. The phrase “Delegate work to AI” demonstrates AI’s significant role in handling complex computing tasks.
  4. Heat Management: The diagram shows “Making Super Heat” from the GPU, managed by a “Control It with Cooling” system, highlighting the importance of thermal management.
  5. Integrated Management: The right sidebar groups power, GPU, and cooling systems together, with the caption “Must Manage All connected Supers.” This underscores the interconnectedness of these core elements and the need for integrated management.
  6. System Efficiency: Each major component is labeled “Super,” emphasizing their crucial roles in the high-performance system. This suggests that harmonious management of these elements determines the overall system’s efficiency and performance.
  7. Output: The “Super” human icon at the top right implies that this high-performance system produces exceptional results.

This diagram emphasizes that power management, GPU utilization, heat management, and AI integration are critical in modern high-performance computing. It highlights that efficient integrated management of these elements is key to determining the overall system’s performance and efficiency. Additionally, it suggests the growing importance of AI and automation technologies in effectively managing such complex systems.

Data Center Management Upgrade

From Claude with some prompting
explain the image in more detail from the data collection perspective and how the data analysis platform facilitates the expansion of AI services.

First, we can see the data collection stage where data is gathered from various systems within the data center building, such as electrical, mechanical, security, and so on, through subsystems like EPMS, BAS, ETC. This collected data is stored in the Data Gathering DB.

Next, this accumulated data is transmitted to the Data Analysis Platform via an API. The necessity of the data analysis platform arises from the need to process the vast amount of collected data and derive meaningful insights.

Within the Data Analysis Platform, tools like Query, Program, and Visualization are utilized for data analysis and monitoring purposes. Based on this, services such as Energy Optimization and Predictive Failure Detection are provided.

Furthermore, by integrating AI technology, data-driven insights can be enhanced. AI models can leverage the data and services from the data analysis platform to perform advanced analytics, automated decision-making, and more.

In summary, the flow is as follows: Data Collection -> Data Processing/Analysis on the Data Analysis Platform -> Provision of services like Energy Optimization and Failure Prediction -> Integration of AI technology for advanced analysis and automation, all contributing to effective data center management.
