Predicting and measuring total cost of ownership (TCO) for the physical infrastructure for network rooms
and data centres is required for return-on-investment (ROI) analysis and other business decision processes.
In addition, an understanding of the cost drivers of TCO provides insight into opportunities to control costs.
The APC Data Centre Capital Costs Calculator is designed to help businesses understand the impact of
physical infrastructure design changes on capital costs and allow for a more agile and predictable growth.
Helping to identify key data centre design infrastructure parameters the Data Centre Capital Costs
Calculator estimates costs based on the various parameter inputs.
By identifying load, redundancy, density power and cooling characteristics the tool can project the number
of racks required, floor space required, and the overall capital costs.
