Cost Considerations
Costs are charged on a case to case basis, depending on the policies of the agency providing the resources and the capacity of resources required.
Sourcing Alternatives
Technical support can also be sourced commercially, usually at higher rates than the typically transfer charges between agencies. On the other hand, commercial providers may have the industry or technical expertise required for the job that internal UN resources cannot provide.

Location
Servers and UPS equipment for data centre’s are getting denser and heavier everyday. The load rating for all supporting structures, particularly for raised floors and ramps should be adequate for current and future loads. Considering the load bearing requirements, it is recommended that the data centre be located on the ground floor of the building, unless there are flooding concerns, in which case the data centre should be located on the floor immediately above floodwater levels. Most buildings are designed with data and electrical wiring runs done along the central core, as this provides protection from external elements. Furthermore, Ethernet twisted pair cables have a maximum recommended distance of 100 meters. Therefore, to reduce distances to floor wiring closets, enhance cooling, and address security concerns (e.g. theft and bombing) the optimal location of the data centre is close to the core or centre of the building.
