Supply side economics of scale Larger datacenters have almost 50% lower TCO per server ANNUAL TCO/SERVER DECLINES W/SCALE MAIN DATA CENTER COST BUCKETS Server hardware costs  (~45%) Facility & operations  (~25%) Hardware labor costs (~15%) Power costs (~15%) 47% Savings
De Microsoft Cloud
De Microsoft Cloud Microsoft has more than 10 and less than 100 DCs worldwide Amsterdam Dublin Chicago Quincy Japan Hong Kong Boydton Des Moines San Antonio Singapore Multiple global CDN locations  "Datacenters have become as vital to the                                                      functioning of society as power stations."  The Economist 
Sustainable economics Improved Efficiency  Energy savings and Sustainable Environment Reduced TCO for supply of cloud services Relentless focus on PUE reduction Lower cost passed on to customers Competitive Advantage Less Raw Materials Less Wasted Power Less Idle Equipment  Less                    e-Waste Less Carbon Less Empty Space Satisfied Customers PUE Ojective: 1.125
shift to ultra-modularity Pre-manufacture the entire datacenter Low initial capital investment ITPAC  Modular Server Building Block Airside Economization PAC with adiabatic cooling Extremely efficient  PUE of 1.05 - 1.2 400 to 2500 servers at a time
DEMAND SIDE ECONOMIES OF SCALE Average server utilization rates are 5-10%
UNCERTAIN GROWTH Uncertainty about future demand requires overprovisioning of resources. Pooling uncertainty dramatically reduces  this inefficiency Server Demand Overprovisioning
