This session is of major importance to the data center industry. During the session, The Uptime Institute introduces the new Tier Standard: Operational Sustainability, which complements the Tier Standard: Topology. Operational Sustainability addresses site characteristics beyond Tier that affect data center operations, e.g., site location, building characteristics and management and operations. Operational Sustainability is the measure of the site's capability to achieve or exceed an owner's Tier objective over the long term.

Update! Tier Standard: Operational Sustainability was released by Uptime Institute on 1 July 2010. Click here to learn more.
