Three Best Practices for Optimizing your IT Infrastructure

Share: 

In a recent survey by the Uptime Institute, 42% of enterprise data center managers reported that they would run out of power capacity within 24 months. This statistic isn’t surprising when you consider that today’s IT hardware requires more power-distribution air conditioning and UPS capacity than in the past.

What steps is your data center taking to mitigate the detrimental disruptions of availability, reliability and uptime caused by a loss of capacity?

There are several, cost-effective options for solving the growing capacity concerns without building a new data center or investing in additional infrastructure. In this webinar, 42U discusses three strategies for optimizing your existing environment to improve space and power capacity.
