Abstract: A scalable power distribution system for a data center and methods for scaling a power distribution system are described. The scalable power distribution system includes a transformer that is connected to a load at its output. The input of the transformer is connected to two isolation switches. A source is connected to one switch at all times, and the source can be switched without affecting power to the load by synchronizing the two sources at the transformer before switching sources. The load is not de-energized at any time during the transfer process.

Abstract: A redundant power distribution system and a method of providing redundant isolation are described. The system includes a normal operation circuit branch and an external bypass circuit branch, enhanced with a generator bypass connection, both connected to a critical load, the generator bypass circuit branch including a diverse, redundant power source. The normal operation circuit branch delivers power to the critical load during normal operations and the external bypass circuit branch delivers power to the critical load from the redundant power source via the enhanced generator bypass connection during bypass operations. The system also allows the critical load to be electrically isolated from all of or a portion of the normal operation circuit branch.

Abstract: System and method enabling creating a server environment in real or near-real time. Major elements of the system include a provisioning engine that controls server chassis coupled to frontend network and backend network. The frontend network enable connection of any server to the Internet or Intranet through a firewall and IDS security systems. The backend network couples specific servers to specific storage resources of a network storage. A GUI or direct API functions enables a user to specify server environment parameters, and the provisioning engine then controls the frontend and backend networks and other system elements to create the specified server environment.
