The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) ANSI/TIA-942-C Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard for Data Centers [1] is an American National Standard (ANS) that specifies the minimum requirements for data center infrastructure and is often cited by companies such as ADC Telecommunications [2] and Cisco Systems. [3]
Data centre tiers are defined levels of resiliency and redundancy for IT facility infrastructure. They are widely used in the data center, ISP and cloud computing industries as part of the engineering design for high availability systems. The standard data center tiers are: [1] Tier I: no redundancy; Tier II: partial N+1 redundancy
The term cloud data centers (CDCs) has been used. [11] Increasingly, the division of these terms has almost disappeared and they are being integrated into the term data center. [12] The global data center market saw steady growth in the 2010s, with a notable acceleration in the latter half of the decade.
All of the aggregate layer switches are connected to each other by core layer switches. Core layer switches are also responsible for connecting the data center to the Internet. The three-tier is the common network architecture used in data centers. [10] However, three-tier architecture is unable to handle the growing demand of cloud computing. [11]
Data center-infrastructure management (DCIM) is the integration [25] of information technology (IT) and facility management disciplines [26] to centralize monitoring, management and intelligent capacity planning of a data center's critical systems. Achieved through the implementation of specialized software, hardware and sensors, DCIM enables ...
Data center services encompass all of the services and facility-related components or activities that support the implementation, maintenance, operation, and enhancement of a data center, [1] which is an environment that provides processing, storage, networking, [2] management and the distribution of data within an enterprise.
The more common type, referred to as containerized data centers or portable modular data centers, fits data center equipment (servers, storage and networking equipment) into a standard shipping container, which is then transported to a desired location. [5] Containerized data centers typically come outfitted with their own cooling systems.
Business continuity planning life cycle. Business continuity may be defined as "the capability of an organization to continue the delivery of products or services at pre-defined acceptable levels following a disruptive incident", [1] and business continuity planning [2] [3] (or business continuity and resiliency planning) is the process of creating systems of prevention and recovery to deal ...
