While data center managers (DCM) certainly see the differing options for modular data centers as providing a means of faster deployment and space maximization at a lower cost, those attributes can come at a price all their own. Since these data center modules are typically removable, consideration needs to be given to installation and removal

In order to vastly improve the productivity of data centers, DCMs are using application-based solutions as well as physical tools. On the application side, data center infrastructure management (DCIM) systems provide a unified, real-time picture of data center operations, enabling IT teams to match resources with demand. With hardware changes and servers a regular occurrence

Managing data center density and growth is certainly something that can cause sleepless nights for DCMs. As a consequence, data center space efficiency is driving a lot of decisions with cooling and energy consumption being intertwined concerns. That’s a significant motivation that has led DCMs to incorporate a number of different approaches to fitting more

As data center customers and their systems grow, server racks inevitably require changes in terms of hardware as well as on-premise relocation to accommodate that growth. Uptime is always a factor for these companies, so faster scaling is always a concern for DCMs. The goal is to enable faster, more efficient moves where data center

There are few crossover points where DCMs can lower data center costs while increasing worker safety. Consolidation through virtualization can certainly increase efficiency as well as lowering data center costs, but it also can indirectly set the stage for worker safety via reduction in physical servers. Moving new technology to a high density environment enables

Wenn man sich die vergangenen Trends bei der Anpassung an die Cloud genauer ansieht, wird klar, ob Cloud Computing der richtige Weg ist oder nicht. Die Trendwolke Statistisch gesehen der größte Sprung zur Wolke

Wie wichtig ist ein Unternehmensserver für das Unternehmen, das er bedient? Nun, das scheint im Moment eine sehr wichtige Frage für BlackBerry zu sein. Wenn wir das Wort des CEO von BlackBerry nehmen, liegt die Rettung des Unternehmens auf dem Unternehmensserver und nicht auf seinen Telefonen. Laut John Chen, CEO von BlackBerry, ist der
