Data centers are continuously exposed to security threats due to the large amount of valuable data they possess. Unauthorized access, both accidental and malicious, accounts for between 9 and 18 percent of all breaches and costs the global data center industry $400 billion every year.
It is no surprise then that data center security management, with increasingly stringent company requirements and industry regulations, is a top priority for modern data center professionals. Basic, low-level protection is no longer adequate for the complexities of modern data center environments, and data center managers need to ensure their security, while still allowing technicians and contractors the access...

As costs of managing and maintaining in-house data centers rise, enterprises are reconsidering their infrastructure and attempting to minimize on-premises data center space. Colocation data center providers are becoming a more attractive and cost-effective solution, offering physical locations as well as power, cooling, network, and security services for their customers. According to 451 Research, over 40 percent of enterprise end users are already renting space in a colocation facility and that number is expected to continue rising.
If you are considering using a colocation provider, choosing the right vendor for your data center needs can be a complicated decision with many factors that mu...

There is a saying that “You can’t manage what you can’t measure.” By monitoring environmental conditions, data center managers can improve operations in a number of ways. Here are some of the top reasons why all data centers need environmental monitoring:
Save money. Cooling costs are one of the biggest concerns of data center managers. Around half the power...

Due to the ever-increasing demands of modern IT infrastructure, many organizations are moving their data centers and becoming a tenant of a colocation provider. Colocation data centers may be an attractive and cost-effective solution, but the decision to move to a colocation facility, and which one to choose, should be considered carefully.

Cable management in the data center is a complex task that, when done improperly, can lead to “spaghetti” cabinets, difficult equipment installations, and prolonged troubleshooting and maintenance time. Poor cable management can also create an unsafe operation environment by restricting airflow to racks, trapping dust, and keeping cables too warm. More organizations are realizing that they need to instill good cable management behaviors across their data center environments.
Among the cable management best practices, perhaps the most basic and easiest to implement is accurately labeling cables. According to Building Industry Consulting Service International (BICSI), applying consistent label...
