The Data Center Human Element: Designing for Observability, Resiliency and Better Operations
The risk of data center outages can be severe and expensive. A Ponemon study found that the average cost of a data center outage has steadily increased from $505,502, in 2010, to $740,357. That’s an average of $9,000 per minute. Furthermore, a recent Uptime Institute study found that more than 70% of all data center outages are caused by human error and not by a fault in the infrastructure design. In a world of constant connectivity, leaders are seeking tools for their digital infrastructure that minimize the human risk and improve operations. Reducing risk in key facilities includes prevention and identifying and reacting to critical incidents quickly. Multi-level security applications ensure that the site has the protection and control needed to minimize downtime and intrusion threats.
In partnership with Data Center Frontier, Honeywell, a leader in connected buildings and a provider of data center solutions for over a decade, sets out to report on the state of data center operations and the shift towards a more connected ecosystem.
