Processor:  Environmental Monitoring In The Data Center

Perfect Conditions From Start To Finish

Summary:

Environmental problems are the main causes of data center downtime. When environmental conditions are not perfect—or worse, out of control—equipment, productivity, and the data center budget are all affected. Indeed, there is a science to implementing the right environmental monitoring solution for the data center, but every data center is not the same. Knowing where to begin, what tools to use, and understanding the benefits and pitfalls, can help you manage risk, make the data center more comfortable, and save you huge headaches down the road.

Key Points:

  • Getting started with environmental monitoring is like deciding which temperature in your home is most comfortable—start by understanding the current conditions.

  • Understand a facility’s basic layout and elements, structure and equipment, and past threats. Environmental monitoring is not a ‘one size fits all’ scenario.

  • Look for an environmental monitoring solution that will meet both current monitoring requirements and allow room for future expansion as needs change.
