What is PSBA?
• Public Sector Broadband Aggregation
• A fully cross sector collaborative programme
• A physical communication network, shared by the public sector in Wales
• An enabler:– Same physical infrastructure
– One less barrier to controlled information sharing
– Different sector representation in the same room
• A new way of working:– Cross sector governance
– Cross sector funding model
• A Platform for shared services

Making it green
• Include sustainability in the evaluation criteria
– Balance higher cost with lower PUE
• Shared by the public sector
– Increase utilisation (fill it quickly)
– Reduce number of smaller facilities
• Re-use of existing building
• The balance of power demands, power provided (per rack), cooling technologies and size
• The cost per Kw versus number of racks
• The balance point is constantly moving
