FEATURE Page 4 ANSI/BICSI 002-2019, Data Center Design and Implementation Best Practices ANSI/BICSI 002-2019, BICSI's international best-seller, covers all major systems found within a data center. Written by industry professionals from all major disciplines, this standard not only lists what a data center requires, but also provides ample recommendations on the best methods of implementing a design to fulfill your needs. While the traditional data center continues to be the focus, the breadth of content can also be applied to modular, containerized, edge and hyperscale data centers. Additions and revisions for the 2019 version include heat rejection and cooling systems, provisioning of Lithium-ion batteries, colocation planning, support for Open Compute Project ® concepts and infrastructure, and the expansion of the commissioning process. Revision work also included refining or moving data center operations content into BICSI 009-2019. BICSI 002 serves as reference material for the DCDC TM credential. Learn more about the DCDC designation at bicsi.org/dcdc. bicsi.org/002 BICSI 009-2019, Data Center Operations and Maintenance Best Practices Introducing BICSI 009-2019, the first open-consensus standard providing more than a framework for data center operation policies and practices. Developed by a global volunteer base, the material within reflects operational experience and lessons from a wide variety of data center owners, operators, designers and consultants covering the gamut of data centers—from the small enter- prise to the large hyperscale colocation data center, and everything in-between. Starting with the applicable operational material from BICSI 002-2019, BICSI 009 revised and expanded this content prior to developing additional content specific for data center owners, operators and managers. bicsi.org/009 (continued from page 3) See page 27 for an upcoming webinar and vILT class regarding the new ANSI/BICSI 002-2019 standard.
