Insurance data center, not to lose money and information

Insurance for the data center facility used to house computer systems and associated components, such as telecommunications and storage systems. Generally includes redundant or backup power, redundant data communications connections, environmental controls (eg, air conditioning, fire suppression) and the various safety devices. Large data centers are operations on an industrial scale using a larger amount of energy in a small town.

Requirements for insurance  modern data centers

IT operations is the most important aspect of the organization's activities worldwide. One of the main concerns is business continuity. Companies rely on their information systems to run their operations. If the system became available, may be reduced or ceased operations company completely. It is necessary to provide a reliable infrastructure for IT operations, to minimize any risk of crashes. Information security is a concern,

which is why the data center must provide a safe environment that reduces the chances of a security breach. Data center must maintain high standards to ensure the safety functions of the computer environment hosted there. This is accomplished through repetition of mechanical cooling and electrical systems (including energy generators in emergencies) data center along the fiber optic cable service.
Identifies infrastructure TIA-942 Unified Communications of the Association of the telecommunications industry for data centers, the minimum requirements for the centers of communications infrastructure data and the data center, including data centers, hosting centers and one multi-tenant company and Internet tenant data. It aims topology proposed in this document apply to any size data center.
Telcordia GR-3160 NEBS requirements for equipment provides communications and data center spaces, and guidelines for data centers in the areas of telecommunications networks, and environmental requirements for the equipment to be installed in these spaces. These standards have been developed jointly by Telcordia and industry representatives. And can be applied to areas of data centers with equipment data or information processing technology (IT). The equipment can be used for: operation and management of the communications network to provide carrier-based applications directly on the data center to the customer by the carrier to provide hosted applications to third parties to provide services to its customers to provide a combination of these and similar data center applications
The efficient operation of the data center requires a balanced investment in both the installation and equipment shelters. The first step is to create the appropriate reference center for equipment installation environment. Tawhid and stereotypes can generate savings and efficiency in the design and construction of communications data centers.
Normalization means building integrated and engineering equipment. Module has the advantages of portability and ease of growth, even though the expectations of planning is not the best. For these reasons, should be planned data centers in frequent communications equipment building blocks, strength and support (conditioning) equipment when associated practices. The use of a dedicated centralized systems require more accuracy to the needs of future expectations to prevent expensive in construction, or perhaps even worse - under construction fails to meet future needs.
Data "lights-out", also known as the center of a dark or dark data center is almost an ideal data center and eliminate the need for direct access by employees, except in exceptional circumstances. Due to the lack of need for staff to enter the data center, and can be used without lights. All devices can be accessed and managed by remote systems with automation software used to implement unattended. In addition to saving energy, and low labor costs and the ability to determine the location in addition to population centers, and implementation of data center extinguishing the lights reduces the risk of malicious attacks on infrastructure.
There is a tendency to update the data centers to take advantage of the performance and energy efficiency of the equipment increases the capabilities of the latest computer, such as cloud computing. As this process is known data processing center.
Organizations that are experiencing rapid growth, but their data centers, information technology era. Industry research firm International Data Corporation (IDC) puts the average age of the data center at the age of nine.  Gartner, says other research data center company of more than seven years outdated.
In May 2011, he said, uptime Institute Research Organization Data Center found that 36 percent of large IT companies surveyed expect to exhaust the capacity in the next 18 months.
Transformation of the data center is a step-by-step approach through integrated projects with the passage of time. This differs from the traditional method of data upgrades that take the serial approach and fragmented center.  and include pilot projects within the project of transformation of data unification / consolidation, virtualization, automation and security center. Standardization / unification: The purpose of this project is to reduce the number of data centers can be a large organization has. This project will also help to reduce the number of hardware and software platforms, tools and processes in the data center. Organizations replace aging data center equipment in accordance with those that provide the capacity and performance of the latest. And standardized computer platforms, networks and management so that they are easier to manage.  Virtualization: There is a tendency to use desktop virtualization technologies to replace or enhance multiple devices from the data center, such as servers. Default reduces capital and operating expenses,  and reduce energy consumption. Used virtualization technologies also to create virtual desktops, which can then be hosted in data centers and rented on a subscription basis.  Data published by Lazard Capital Markets Investment Bank reports that 48 percent of the company's operations will be apparent in 2012. Gartner default Show as a catalyst for the update.  Implementation: automating the data center by automating tasks such as saving, configuration, patching, and version management, and compliance. While the companies suffer from low skilled IT workers,  automate tasks are data centers operate more efficiently. Security: In modern data centers, data security has been the integration of the virtual security systems with existing physical infrastructure.  The security of modern data center should consider physical security, network security and data integrity and user ..
