The document discusses how the Open Compute Project (OCP) is disrupting and transforming data centers by removing outdated and proprietary components ("20th century dross") and simplifying designs. Some key changes enabled by OCP include replacing traditional 19-inch racks and cabling on server rear with more open designs, eliminating unnecessary items like access floors and centralized UPS rooms, and advocating for resilience through software solutions rather than hardware redundancy. The adoption of OCP designs and components could significantly reduce costs, waste, and complexity in data centers.

Notes de l'éditeur
- Must be seen to be green because Johns wife is the Sustainability strategic planner for the City of London Square Mile!!
- And thanks to you all for coming and taking part because talking to an empty room is not so much fun ! I always try to make my audiences laugh out loud at least once. My favourite standup comedian is Stewart Lee, watch him on YouTube
- Had my eureka OCP moment when working at the Facebook data centre in Lulea Sweden. My mission is to tell the data centre industry about OCP solutions and be a Reset Catalyst to move the 20th century data centre industry into the 21st century.
- Ask me afterwards for more details about OCP and getting involved in the community
- Cartoon representation of simplicity and complexity. Thanks to XKCD for ink drawings throughout these slides. Thanks to XKCD for ink drawings throughout these slides. Please by stuff from him as a thankyou Not for profit use by John Laban and also to promote my favourite cartoonist https://xkcd.com/910/
- OCP joint founder Frank F. Embedded Youtube video in slide.
- Lets look at some company share price trends.. preparing the audience for graphs
- Bloomburg share price trend for proprietary hardware and open hardware vendor.
- Patent Pools a habit of declining vendors in the ICT space. See the case against Patents. No Patents on Tesla Motors

- Based on 40 traditional one u servers in rack compared to the OCP equivalent
- Discrediting the traditional 20th century computer room practices ......a few teaser questions.... From the point of view of the 21st century what we did in the 20th century is lamentable and oh, oh, oh so wasteful and downright stupid.
- 19ich width great for telegraph and railway electromechanical relays. Show of hands …how many of you are fitting relays like these into your data centre computer room racks…yes a big no!
- OCP wide uses cabinet allows 25% increase in in HDDs . Width was more than optimising for 4inch wide HDD….see Amir email with reasons relating to the Freedom server. See the OCP third width servers on display outside of this room. Open Vault (old name Knox) offers high disk densities, holding 30 drives in a 2U chassis. Increasing rail widths does not increase overall width of rack so they would still fit a 2ft floor grid http://www.opencompute.org/blog/introducing-the-open-rack/
- or perhaps 19inches is related to bee hives
- See my “screws screws screws why we do the things we do” presentation from Data Centre Conference South at the Barbican in 2015. This presentation takes it to a Monty Pyhonist level of ridiculous humour with candles and chickens. When people laugh there mindsets become malleable Barbican presentation available on request from john.laban@jrlaban.com
- OCP server value engineering Cables on rear because started as a desk top PC before being placed in a rack on a shelf.
- Fan Cube Law …halving the fan speed uses one eight the power. Remember to include the fans in the dual power supply units.

- Used for water pipes and not air cooling. Water pipes below so when they leaked the mainframe did not go pop! Air buoyancy means its better practice to pour cool denser air down into warmer room, and not blow it up from the bottom. Note printers and seat/desk positions for people in room. Back then people did not use black racks!!!!
- Paper curls and jams printers in computer room if wide range of humidity. Paper today still has an up and down and should be placed in printers the right way up.

- LES uses Li-ion BBU (Battery Backup Unit) in white space rack/chassis
- Tool-less gear in white space …wow no screw drivers!! See those green touch points.
- A different approach to resilience @scale when using combination of software and hardware
- CE0 of a Black Box proprietary hardware solutions that lock-in the user and benefit the few at the expense of the majority
- Acceptance of the death does not occur until one has been through the earlier emotions. Reset Catalyst ….resetting peoples 20th century data centre mindsets so they can move on into the 21st century’s open source data centres
- Discrediting the traditional 20th century computer room practices ......a few teaser questions.... “Reset Catalyst” Nothing to do with resetting proprietary cisco catalyst switches
