Patent number: 9894810Abstract: In one example, a data center may be built in modular components that may be pre-manufactured and separately deployable. Each modular component may provide functionality such as server capacity, cooling capacity, fire protection, resistance to electrical failure. Some components may be added to the data center by connecting them to the center's utility spine, and others may be added by connecting them to other components. The spine itself may be a modular component, so that spine capacity can be expanded or contracted by adding or removing spine modules. The various components may implement functions that are part of standards for various levels of reliability for data centers. Thus, the reliability level that a data center meets may be increased or decreased to fit the circumstances by adding or removing components.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2016Date of Patent: February 13, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: David Thomas Gauthier, Scott Thomas Seaton, Allan Joseph Wenzel, Cheerei Cheng, Brian Clark Andersen, Daniel Gerard Costello, Christian L. Belady, Jens Conrad Housley, Brian Jon Mattson, Stephan W. Gilges, Kenneth Allen Lundgren
