Large Data Center Location Decisions

Gregory Parnell, Research Professor, University of Arkansas
November 15, 2017 (SDP Webinar Invited Talk)

At the end of the fiscal year, a government organization used its unobligated funds to order servers. When the servers began arriving there were no data centers available in the organization with the power, cooling, and floor space to house them. This presentation provides the story of how decision analysis was used to identify the problems and develop a decision analysis methodology that was used five times by government agencies to determine the best location for their next data centers.
