BEER and
UPSs are alike.9ways Temperature is everything
There’s a reason some cans have mountains that
turn blue when cold . . . no one wants to drink that
stuff warm! Similarly, heat can significantly diminish
the performance, safety and lifetime of a battery.
Both UPSs and beer perform better when stored and
used at the proper temperature.
Redundancy
Make sure you have a backup.
You may think you’re only
going to drink one, and then
Billy stops by empty-handed
and thirsty after the stores
have closed. Redundancy
is key! The surest way to
increase your UPS availability
is to incorporate a 2N or N+X
redundant configuration for
fault tolerance. And let’s face
it—a redundant environment
can protect you from the
Billy’s of the world.
How bold should you go
How full-flavored or feature-rich do you want
to go? An online UPS, similar to an imperial
chocolate coffee stout, has a lot to offer but could
be too much depending on your needs. Some
applications only call for a standby UPS the same
way a cold, crisp light beer makes for a perfect
after-mowing-your-yard treat.
Reviews are key
It’s important to get the
insider knowledge before
you buy. Spiceworks.com
and StorageReview.com
are to IT pros as Untapped
and NextGlass are to
beer enthusiasts.
Reduce, reuse, recycle
Whether a beer or a battery, don’t
forget to do your part to save the
world. Both UPS batteries and
cans/bottles can be recycled by
Heritage Environmental Services.
And for those empty cans and
bottles, be sure to dispose in
your nearest “blue bin.”
Best if used by [this date]
Beer expires, especially the hoppy kinds
like an IPA. Make sure you don’t leave the
store with an expired beer. Do this once and
you’ll understand the importance of checking
expiration dates on everything including your
UPS batteries. It’s beneficial to check and
note the expiration date to ensure
a replacement plan is in place.
Pairing matters
To bring out its full potential, a
UPS needs to be paired with the
right equipment. Think racks, rack
power distribution units (PDUs)
and software. You’ll be as pleased
with your full solution as when you
pair chocolate with a stout or a
burger with a pale ale.
Power is in the watts
UPSs are typically rated in volt
amperes (VA) but you should be
looking at the wattage. For example,
think of a 1 kVA UPS as a six pack.
Would you rather have a six pack of
8 oz. or 12 oz. beers? Similarly, the
wattage rating of a 1 kVA UPS
typically ranges from 600 to 1000
watts. The higher the wattage
rating, the more IT equipment you
can power! For more information,
check out our Professor Wattson
video: VA vs Watts.
Now trending
Though we advise to tread
lightly when considering industry
trends, a New England Style IPA
is delicious! Some flash in the
pan trends should be avoided, like
Gose IMO—there’s a reason that
style died 70 years ago. But other
trends like lithium-ion batteries can
change the UPS landscape in your favor
by lowering your total cost of ownership (TCO).
Have you ever thought, “This crisp, cold beer
really reminds me of my uninterruptible power
supply?” Well, the beer you drink and the UPS
power you use are arguably of equal importance,
and more of a science than one may think.
Here are 9 ways the beer in your glass matches
the UPS in your server room.
BATTERIES ARE
HEAVY. THEY GET
