• The days of "Brick and Mortar" data centers are over!
• Portable Modular Data Centers are here to stay
• Containerized Data Centers are vastly superior in every way
• IBM is the global leader in Containerized Data Center Solutions

Historically several aspects of the data center industry were true.

• Cost billions to enter the market.
• 3 to 4 years to design, build and staff
• Required 50% of its gross revenue for Electricity
• Saw revenues of about $1000 per square foot per month

Enter the IBM Portable Modular Data Center or PMDC for short.

• 40% less Electricity
• Deploys "Turn Key" in 12 to 14 weeks
• Costs significantly less than "room" based data centers
• Can realize revenues of $6000 per square foot per month and beyond!

• Portable DC’s in use at custom designs for Microsoft/Google and Gov’t sites, now commercially available from IBM
• Up to 4,032 high-end state of the art servers and compatible storage in many flexible configurations
• State of the art multiple carrier fiber connectivity
• Fully redundant
• Servers per 20,40, and 53 foot containers shipped within weeks and deployed in hours and managed with 90% less people

The Paradigm Shift is Here!
