Significance of Tier 4 Data Center

The Tier 4 Data Center is receiving accolades from some and being shrugged off by some as an unnecessary purchase. After examining the facts and the advantages of a Tier 4 Data Center over the other Tiers in the Tier Classification System, we can conclude that a Tier 4 Data Center indicates the most robustly designed data center. This being the case, a Tier 4 Data Center is of special significance in businesses, especially so when the nature of the business has high availability requirements. A Tier 4 Data Center indicates the most robustly designed data center.

The debate on whether there is really a need for a Tier 4 Data Center still rages on. Some in the industry feel that there isn’t a real need for a Tier 4 Data Center and that the costs involved in the installation may not be worth the advantages of it. Before we discuss the significance of a Tier 4 Data Center and see why it would be a good choice for your business, let us get into what this Tier classification is all about.

Over the past decades, much advancement has been made in the Data Center Industry. Considering the different design topologies and associated site availability metrics with regard to Data Centers, the need for the Tier Performance Standards was clearly visible. An analytical approach to evaluate the performance of a Data center became of increasing significance with the tremendous growth of the Data Center Industry. 

The surge of increase in the number of data centers and the correspondingly significant increase in internet business interests made it necessary to come up with clearly defined performance criteria to assess the efficiency of data centers and help businesses make an informed strategic choice. 

There are a number of approaches to the Tier system of Classification like the Ten Tier Classification and the 11 aspects of data center performance defined by the Syska Hennessy Group. However, the four tiered classification system of the Uptime Institute is considered to be the most reliable. Each level of the tier was established from the 60’s onward and each of them represents an increased level of performance.

What are the key points you should consider before selecting a Colocation Provider?

In the IT world colocation services have turned out to be the most popular commodity.  The IT world prefers colocation data centre facility as it allows for renting a space for storing and installing servers and other hardware. It provides the floor space, cooling, power and physical security to the servers, storage and/or applications owned by a customer. These services not only understand the operational dynamics of every organisation but also, deploy the essential building blocks to maximise the enterprise growth. It is estimated by 2020 the colocation market will grow at a 15.4% compound annual growth rate. Enabling the organisations to deploy a data centre without a need to buy it is one of the reasons for its growing popularity.

According to a report the average colocation contract accounts for three to five years. Also, the customers can go for wholesale colocation contract which accounts for five to fifteen years. Mostly the customers prefer the wholesale contract of more than 3 years to avoid the losses concerning costs and potential downtime. It is a challenging task to look for a reliable and affordable collocation data centre. We all are aware that every business offers a different set of facilities but, there are some facilities that each data centre offers in common. Along with the physical characteristics, it is also essential to understand the colocation facility operation, how the long term clients are treated and flexibility offered on space, power and cooling.

It has become vital to look for colocation facilities satisfying both your current and future requirements. Here are a few things you need to check while selecting a colocation data centre.

1. Power Density

Improved power density is a crucial element of the colocation service provider to support current and future technologies. Technological innovations have led to an increase in the data centre power densities. There are a considerable number of clients demanding 10 kW per cabinet.  But, only few colocation service providers are supporting the future technological advancements.

A high power density data centre drives environmental and operational cost efficiencies. A report says a majority of vendors are implementing a supplemental cooling system to support high-density environments.

2. Flexible Service Level Agreement (SLA)

SLA enables the service providers to manage customer expectations and define the circumstances under which they are not liable for performance issues. It is also beneficial to the customers as it enables to compare the described performance characteristics with the vendors SLAs.

SLA is written to protect the provider. The contract typically defines the objectives, services to be covered and the responsibilities of the service provider and customer. The provider needs to be careful while addressing the contract and SLA elements critical to the business.  This contract is subjected to modification over time by adding new services and changing the existing ones.

3. Security

The primary reason for a business to select a colocation data centre is heightened security. It is a crucial aspect need to be considered while setting up a budget. It enables organisations to store sensitive information remotely. Also, it provides multiple levels of security inside and outside the data centre. It is essential before selecting a colocation provider to know the internal and external security parameters.

Round-the-clock monitoring and restricting access are few physical security measures that may help you provide high-security to the colocation data centre. Also, the virtual security measures like biometrics and video surveillance have gained popularity to protect confidential information.

4. Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plans

A business continuity plan is essential to make your business run even if a disaster strikes. Also, select a plan that protects your business from natural disasters and human errors in future. Also, the disaster recovery plan should be tested by the technical experts to support the businesses.

A data centre providing a workplace to the technical team for disaster recovery testing and declarations should be selected.

5. Network Carrier Redundancy

Connections between the businesses and vendors are equally essential to maintain business continuity. While choosing a colocation service make sure it provides you with a variety of network carriers that enables connectivity within the facility. Also, you need to search for a vendor that provides you with cost-effective redundant network design.

Network carrier redundancy plan should also involve continuous connections between the workforces and the customers.

6. Bandwidth

High functioning, quality and speedy internet is the basic requirement for the smooth operation of the business. A business may have to face loss due to the absence of potential internet connection.

Business entities should make sure that they ignore weak bandwidth options to avoid potential downfall. For reliable and affordable connections, you can choose the colocation data centre over the in-house hosting services.

Conclusion

Colocation has gained popularity and acceptance in the business world. While choosing a colocation data centre, it is essential to analyse the business needs and the budget to be spent. The above hacks will help to find a better colocation service provider for your business

A 3 Minute Guide To Understand Data Centres And Why Your Business Needs One

Look at Industries globally and you’ll find that they too have caught the novel Coronavirus – or at least its financial impact, with an estimated contraction of 5.2% in global GDP in 2020 according to Global Economic Prospects. The most affected industries include IT Services, Manufacturing, Travel & Tourism, Financial Services, Mining, and Construction, with declining rates of up to 23% between April and June 2020. 

The pandemic, on the other hand, gave a huge boost to internet services and digital transformation worldwide with a significant part of the industries and companies that have started working and collaborating from home.

With such a condition a demand for data centers has gone up as technologies working remotely are playing a crucial role in keeping companies functional in this pandemic. The emergence of a new business environment in the wake of COVID-19 boosted the cloud services and digitization as companies modernize their digital infrastructure with an improved way of working.

But what is a Data Center? A data center is a physical space where organizations can store their hyper-distributed data, within a safe and secure facility with dedicated and reliable power, and network transmission. Currently, large enterprises process millions of bytes of information every day – both in the form of structured and unstructured data, and need a partner to securely host them. Many firms also prefer to shift cloud-based applications to data centers, minimizing the cost of running an in-house server and its maintenance.

To meet the constant demand for instant access, data centers are expected to run 24/7, which needs real-time monitoring of infrastructure, equipment upgrades, power distribution, air handling, and much more. Better infrastructure protection necessitates both the provision of security from internal threats and data breach. To stop this data leak, data centers are adopting increased security at the infrastructure layer that gives a more fine-grained approach, along with greater agility and adaptation. Lookout for reasons why companies should choose the hyperscale data center services:

Higher Margins: Datacenter services allow enterprises to modify solutions to help them avail service efficiencies and scale costs. Datacenters provide companies with an optimum solution that requires fewer systems or less storage space for service users to achieve marginal growth.

Data Storage and Management: Data Centers always push their horizons of tangible capacity to meet present and future requirements of Data Security and Availability. With new ways of data management companies can leverage cloud storage capabilities that help them to maximize resources and covering ways to improve them.

Safety and Recovery: Quick disaster recovery in the shortest turnaround time plays a vital role in a data center environment. Along with the virtual security of the data, data center sketches a comprehensive plan on the infrastructure, potential threats, and asset for backup and recovery of your data.

Data Space Management: Maintaining a physical server is a burden on budget and manpower. Utilizing an off-site data center gives tremendous flexibility, to add selective space as needed, allowing businesses to pay for only space and resources when they need it.

Expert’s advice:It’s easier and agile when you let experts handle and monitor your company data. An expert at data center collect organizes and distributes your company data for agile and centralized data delivery and maintenance.

Top 10 Reasons Why Companies Choose Colocation Hosting

Colocation hosting and dedicated hosting are similar terms with one notable exception. In dedicated hosting, customers rent servers as well as the infrastructure needed to support them. 

While, in colocation hosting, companies own their hardware, but are looking to supplement its functionality by renting/ leasing server space in this facility which provides benefits like improved internet bandwidth, server cooling systems, and reliable power. 

For a colocation hosting arrangement, the customer must have their physical server. They physically transport the server to the colocation hosting facility i.e. a data center that provides these services. The customer only rents/ leases the space within the site but maintains ownership and full control of all hardware and software settings of their server. 

By regular communication with the hosting facility, the customer can quickly upgrade or downgrade various features like RackSpace, bandwidth, etc. to fit the business needs.

10 Reasons Why Companies Choose Colocation Hosting

When the volume of business data outgrows its infrastructure limitations, it becomes important to establish an expansion strategy. Colocation offers them the benefits of having and controlling their servers, storage, and network so that they can manage costs and tune performance. 

Here are the top 10 reasons why companies choose colocation hosting-

Security: Colocation facilities are designed to ensure that your systems are protected from all risk factors such as fires, burglars, and other things that may compromise the security of your information.

Reliability: These infrastructures have redundant cooling and power, communication systems that ensure constant connection and strict access control, therefore are proved to be reliable.

Accountability and access control: These state of art facilities guarantee service level agreement (SLA) for the uptime of your system, which helps you access the risk.

Cost Savings: Colocation facilities ensure a clean room, redundant systems, and 24/7 monitoring ensuring your savings substantially as you need not spend on maintenance, power requirements, and additional cooling of your servers.

Reduced Maintenance: High-level server support equipment is available at the colocation facilities. They also dedicated staff to make sure that systems are running at top performance. They monitor systems and service the equipment regularly, and also fortify immediate actions in case of failures.

Freeing Up Space: An in-house data center requires a lot of space and putting all your servers in one room is not a sustainable solution. Colocation services free up your valuable spaces and provide the agility and robustness that your business needs for future.

Scalability: Colocation hosting allows you the flexibility to scale up or scale down easily, while you pay only for space and power you need and only when you need it.

Performance: Electronic equipment performs best in a constant cool and dust-free environment. This is ensured at a colocation facility which enhances the overall performance of your systems.

Speed: These facilities offer cost-effective fast connections directly to multiple internet service providers to provide top performance in events of overload or interruption in connections.

Competence: Colocation centers have on-site staff who have major experience in the field of technology. This offloads your IT staff as the maintenance and implementation of your servers is taken care of remotely by the remote smart hands.
