The values in the table below are calculated as follows:

PUE – The ratio between the data center and IT equipment energy measurement values. This value is calculated for each of the required time periods by the following formula:

PUE =

Sum of Data Center Energy

Sum of IT Equipment Energy

IT Equipment – The average of the IT equipment power measurement values for each of the time periods.

Data Center – The average of the data center power measurement values for each of the time periods.

The values displayed in the charts below are calculated as follows:

PUE Trend – The weekly PUE values are calculated by the following formula where N represents a week of the year:

PUE week N =

Sum [ Data Center Energy ] week N

Sum [ IT Equipment Energy ] week N

Energy Trend – The weekly energy values for IT equipment and support are calculated by the following formulas where N represents a week of the year:

IT Equipment Energyweek N =

Sum [ IT Equipment Energy ] week N

Support Energy week N =

Sum [ Data Center Energy] week N - Sum [ IT Equipment Energy ] week N
