The following topics are outside of the scope of the ISO/IEC 22237 series: 1)    the selection of information technology and network telecommunications equipment, software and associated configuration issues are outside the scope of this International Standard; 2)    quantitative analysis of overall service availability resulting from multi-site data centres; 3)    safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements (covered by other standards and regulations. However, information given in this document can be of assistance in meeting these standards and regulations).
