More Understanding the Cost of Data Center Downtime: An Analysis of the Financial Impact on Infrastructure Vulnerability A supplement to the study “The Leading Root Causes of Data Center Downtime,” this white paper attempts to estimate the full costs associated with an unplanned data center outage. The analysis was based on 41 independent data centers located in the United States and concludes the following – • Total cost of partial and complete outages can be a significant expense for    organizations • Total cost of outages is systematically related to the duration of the outage, as     well as the size of the data center • Certain causes of the outage are more expensive than others. IT equipment is the    most expensive root cause, while accidental/human error is least expensive. Access the whitepaper here. How much do you know about the cost of data center downtime?
