Social distancing och hantering av servrar
As you are well aware, data center operations are basically a set of systems and workflows which maintain adequate uptime and connectivity. The nature of IT ops relies on steady monitoring and maintenance of these systems and workflows—no matter the events taking place outside the DC doors. With calls to practice social distancing, how must […]
Varför CE-certifiering avser säkerhet i Datacenter
CE is a certification that specifically applies to products sold into the European Economic Area (EEA) and makes it possible to freely sell those products throughout EU countries. In some cases, this is a hard requirement. If there are any CE Mark Directives that apply to a given product, then that product is absolutely required, […]
Vanliga frågor om datacentermigrering och omlokalisering
Modern datacenterdesign och arkitektur
Att utforma det moderna datacentret börjar med noggrann placering av "bra ben." Datacenterens nätverksarkitektur måste vara mycket anpassningsbar, eftersom chefer i huvudsak måste förutse framtiden för att skapa fysiska utrymmen som passar snabbt utvecklande teknik. De med bästa framsyn över trender (inklusive AI, multicloud, edge computing och digital transformation) är de mest framgångsrika.
Top 10 Ways to Avoid Downtime
Data center managers and operators know the looming threat of unnecessary downtime well. Despite technological advances in the IT infrastructure space, they are a common phenomenon. The Ponemon Institute placed the cost of a minute of downtime in the data center at $5,600 in 2010 and at $7,900 in 2013. That has now risen to an average of over $8,000 per minute. For the Fortune 100, the loss of unplanned downtime costs as much as $2.5 billion annually.
How to Fit a Data Center Lift Into Your Budget
Your team would love to purchase an assisted lifting device (ALD) for data center operations, but it’s difficult to find room in your budget—especially for the right solution—the one you really need. You are already familiar with its advantages; it is essential to making your operations safer tomorrow than they were yesterday.
How Much Should a Data Center Lift Cost?
The ROI on a data center lifting device is clear. As we’ve demonstrated in the past, savings can reach into savings of millions of dollars (particularly when accident prevention is factored in).
Best Practices for Rack-Mounted Equipment in Data Center Design
Thought leaders in the data center space are seeing increasing demands on equipment capacity, being driven by cloud adoption and other compute-intensive initiatives. These demands affect construction, design, and engineering.
The Hidden Impact of Server Rack Design
The conversation about data centers—along with data storage density, cloud and edge computing, and other highly technical concepts—is constantly evolving. There is a central topic, however, that doesn’t get equal attention. What we aren’t talking about enough are the physical challenges of the data center environment. More specifically, how changes in server rack and facility designs are affecting data center operations.
In the Data Center: Is Safe, Safe Enough?
It may come as little surprise that at ServerLIFT headquarters, the majority of our conversations revolve around data center safety. It’s the reason we originally designed the ServerLIFT data center lift. No one had made anything like it before. We saw a clear need for a lift that could function effectively in the data center environment without putting anyone at risk.
