Management platforms.One or more data center infrastructure management (DCIM) platforms are needed to oversee and manage the IT infrastructure reporting on system health, availability, capacity and configuration. When a business decides to design and build a data center, the natural focus is on the ...
Corporate infrastructure always looks good in PowerPoint. It is well structured, the lines are straight, and clear colors visualize all the well-known configuration items, domains, and functions. Catchy names and abbreviations map out the most critical applications. A fuzzy cloud on top of the pic...
To calculate your data center cooling needs, you need several pieces of data: the total heat output of equipment, floor area in square feet (ft2),facility designand electrical system power rating. One thing to remember is that some older equipment might have been designed to older ASHRAE cooli...
Much of the support infrastructure in data centers is focused on making sure that their power cannot be interrupted.According to research by the Ponemon Institute,the average cost of a data center outage in 2016 stood at $740,357, up 38 percent from when the report was first d...
infrastructure of cloud, AI, Internet of Things and other technologies that build a pervasive data fabric across the enterprise. While technology is at the core of this transformation, humans are at its center – a more empowered workforce that uses and advances the data centricity of the ...
