Data Centre Maintenance / Management stories - Page 16

A data centre cannot run effectively without being properly maintained and managed. Poor maintenance can often lead to catastrophic data loss and physical damage. Data centre maintenance and management is undertaken by data center operators as a key responsibility. It involves ongoing inspection, cleaning, analysis, repairs and recovery of all electrical hardware and components.

​​Regular data centre maintenance is a crucial part of a data centre's operations. It's essential for improving data centre design and making sure clients are kept happy and satisfied with their storage and data options.
