A computação em nuvem, além de promover um modelo de armazena- mento e processamento de dados compartilhados, fortalece o potencial técnico-econômico do CSP (Cloud Service Provider), apresentando inúmeras possibilidades no âmbito computacional. Neste trabalho, é proposto um modelo de custo e um cenário de avaliação com base no TCO (Total Cost of Ownership), avaliando o contexto, aquisição e operação de equipamentos para implantação de infraestruturas em nuvem. Dessa forma, foi possı́vel especificar os principais ativos de infraestruturas tı́picas de nuvem e sobretudo, avaliar seu desempenho financeiro a partir de projeções de custos considerando aspectos que inferem diretamente no retorno de investimentos de um Data Center.

The generation-to-generation IT performance and density demands continue to drive innovation in data center cooling technologies. For many applications, the ability to efficiently deliver cooling via traditional chilled air cooling approaches has become inadequate. Water cooling has been used in data centers for more than 50 years to improve heat dissipation, boost performance and increase efficiency. While water cooling can undoubtedly have a higher initial capital cost, water cooling can be very cost effective when looking at the true lifecycle cost of a water cooled data center. This study aims at addressing how one should evaluate the true total cost of ownership for water cooled data centers by considering the combined capital and operational cost for both the IT systems and the data center facility. It compares several metrics, including return-on-investment for three cooling technologies: traditional air cooling, rack-level cooling using rear door heat exchangers and direct water cooling via cold plates. The results highlight several important variables, namely, IT power, data center location, site electric utility cost, and construction costs and how each of these influence the total cost of ownership of water cooling. The study further looks at implementing water cooling as part of a new data center construction project versus a retrofit or upgrade into an existing data center facility.

The generation-to-generation information technology (IT) performance and density demands continue to drive innovation in data center cooling technologies. For many applications, the ability to efficiently deliver cooling via traditional chilled air cooling approaches has become inadequate. Water cooling has been used in data centers for more than 50 years to improve heat dissipation, boost performance, and increase efficiency. While water cooling can undoubtedly have a higher initial capital cost, water cooling can be very cost effective when looking at the true life cycle cost of a water-cooled data center. This study aims at addressing how one should evaluate the true total cost of ownership (TCO) for water-cooled data centers by considering the combined capital and operational cost for both the IT systems and the data center facility. It compares several metrics, including return-on-investment for three cooling technologies: traditional air cooling, rack-level cooling using rear door heat exchangers, and direct water cooling (DWC) via cold plates. The results highlight several important variables, namely, IT power, data center location, site electric utility cost, and construction costs and how each of these influences the TCO of water cooling. The study further looks at implementing water cooling as part of a new data center construction project versus a retrofit or upgrade into an existing data center facility.

Cloud computing is a technique for supplying computer facilities and providing access to software via the Internet.  Cloud computing represents a contextual shift in how computers are provisioned and accessed.  One of the defining characteristics of cloud software service is the transfer of control from the client domain to the service provider.  Another is that the client benefits from economy of scale on the part of the provider.  Cloud computing is particularly attractive to small and medium-sized educational institutions, because it represents a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) than alternative modalities.
