[VIDEO] Data Center Optimization: The Importance of Capturing Critical Granular Data in Real-Time
The only reliable way for data center teams to troubleshoot and optimize data center performance is to gather massive amounts of data from right across the facility – with no sampling. This removes the risk of visibility gaps, but also introduces a new challenge in...
Form vs. Function: How Aesthetics Play a Role in the Data Center
Spoiler alert: data center space design and maintenance do not pit form versus function; rather, form and function conspire together so that aesthetics can actually be a relatively reliable first pass on the functional viability of a space. Granted, there is no...
