WE KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT DATA CENTERS

What is a Data Center?
The head of a commercial company and its IT department will answer this question differently. The opinion of a telecommunications operator will differ from the perspective of a data center service provider, and a banker's view will differ from that of a retailer. And all these answers will be correct because a Data Center is a multi-component ecosystem, highly adapted to the specific project requirements of a given client. There are no trivial details here, and all elements of the engineering infrastructure are interconnected.
We understand the logic of this interconnection. We know how to create and operate a fault-tolerant Data Center, what automation should be in it, how to fine-tune business processes and have clear risk management, what efforts to direct towards forming a personnel policy and flawless selection of partners.
