Data
Centers Solutions
Broadly defined, a data center is a room or network of rooms that
houses the interconnected data processing, storage and communications
assets of one or more enterprises. The data center may be a room within
a building or occupy an entire building on its own. The purpose of the
data center is to house data assets in an environment that meets their
needs for power, HVAC, telecommunications, redundancy and security.
These assets include rack or cabinet-mounted active equipment and a
structured cabling system to interconnect them.
Whether supporting the needs of a single company or thousands of
different clients, Data Centers are essential to the flow, processing
and storage of business-critical information. Today's Data Center must
deliver a defined set of services to users on demand, with little to no
interruption and is expected to be able to react to any known or
unknown threat without any downtime. As such, the Data Center must be
extremely reliable and secure today, yet still have the capacity to
cost-effectively accommodate the growth and reconfiguration that may be
needed tomorrow. In support of the use of increasingly complex
applications such as grid computing, content delivery, e-commerce and
data backup, the need for scalable infrastructures, power and cooling,
and higher bandwidth continue to grow-intensifying the demand for
better connectivity solutions in the Data Center.
Designing a Data Center takes several factors into account beyond the
size and amount of the data processing / storage equipment it should
contain. Will the Data Center in question serve a single customer (an
enterprise Data Center), or will it host multiple service providers or
remote users (a hosting or co-located Data Center)? If it is a hosting
Data Center, will equipment from different businesses or providers
share or be co-located in the same space? Will the equipment need to be
physically segregated for security purposes? Telecommunications access,
power, cooling, network infrastructure and security all interact to
provide the level of uptime the enterprise requires for effective
operation. Operational strategy involves unique Data Center design
considerations, but also reliable and rapid fault detection, resolution
and overall support. Determining a Data Center's business purpose,
physical location, access to power, level of redundancy, amount of
cooling, strictness of security and type of network infrastructure
media are only the beginning of a Data Center's successful installation
or enlargement-but reliability is the overriding concern in Data Center
planning. For further technical information please see the SYSTIMAX®
Solutions Data Center Planning Guide
developed by the specialists to facilitate the process of the Data
Center designing.
Data center designs must allow
for:
- Operational reliability
- Quick changes, including additions
and rapid expansion
- Online monitoring and status
- Life cycle management
- Customer access
- Physical security
- Rapid detection, identification
and resolution of faults.
To meet these requirements, CommScope® has engineered Intelligent Data Center
Solutions that offer real-time
efficiencies, positively impacting network security, IT productivity
and, ultimately, business success. By implementing these intelligent
solutions, enterprises can increase network uptime, improve
infrastructure management and monitor network connections, allowing
enterprises to more efficiently manage and safeguard their most
valuable asset-information.
