Thinking Differently - A Fresh Approach to Rack Solutions
The rack industry has developed a typical set of responses to
the challenges of housing IT equipment - whether they are applied within
a data centre, server room or localised rack configuration. Many companies
unwittingly adopt these approaches without question, but The Rack People
take a fresh approach to get better results for our clients.

Benefits for SMBs
Over the years we have worked with some of the world's largest
companies, including Intel, Boeing, NHS and the BBC, but
we are also excited to work with small and medium sized businesses.
We help SMB's
improve their IT infrastructure whilst saving money in IT
set up and ongoing running costs. Many of our solutions are
easy to deploy, expandable
and portable - giving you flexibility right now and for the
future. |

The Micro Data Centre
We have looked at the benefits of a data centre and asked how
we can deliver them in a rack enclosure. We
think of our rack solutions as Micro Data Centres,
configured to provide various combinations of cooling, security, contingency,
resilience and monitoring. All these benefits
are available at a tiny fraction of the financial cost it takes to run a traditional
air-conditioned data centre or server room. |

Thinking Green
Using the traditional method of air-conditioning comes with not only a financial
but an ecological expense. Our cooling rack solutions can effectively cool
a much smaller area than cooling entire data centres or server rooms. Cooling
racks are an intuitive and efficient way of dramatically reducing energy overheads,
and can provide an even better environment for your valuable IT equipment. |

On Board Intelligence
Rackmount cabinets have previously been viewed as simple IT storage structures,
but we believe they can be much more. Some of our rack solutions offer on-board
security, fire supression, environmental and intelligent monitoring capabilities
that can be integrated with your wider IT infrastructure, giving you peace
of
mind. |

The Right Solution
Our team of experts have years of experience in specialist rackmount solutions,
and are skilled in listening to your situation, and crafting the right solution
for your needs. We can help you solve heat, noise, dust, security, monitoring,
contingency or resilience problems and improve the environment for your IT
equipment. |

Upgrade Paths
One feature we can offer is upgadeability. Some of our solutions can be initially
purchased as a base unit and later upgraded to a higher functionality
as requirements change or budgets allow. For example, our innovate range can
be transformed from a quality rack base to become a cooling rack at minimal
cost. Other upgrade paths include on-board intelligent monitoring of fans,
temperature and security. |

Protecting Your IT
Most of the racks we sell can incorporate dust filtering and are securely lockable.
We also offer anti-vibration, heavy duty, and IP style racks that protect the
server environment from dust and moisture ingress. Some solutions offer N+1
server room redundancy as they can be run off existing UPS devices. In addition,
our holistic solutions include unique resilience - 5 hours of running even
in a power outage. |
|
|
Cost Saving
Our aim is to reduce your overall IT capital and running costs and reduce your
carbon footprint at the same time. Our rack solutions can provide you with
energy and cost savings of up to 88% - for example, for each 3.4kW air-conditioning
unit you switch off you can save typically £1,700 per year in electricity costs. |
