Reaching operational excellence in data centers
Asher Ling, the Managing Director of Princeton Digital Group, recently highlighted the significance of effectively managing data centers. He believes that it's essential not just for supporting clients' businesses but also for ensuring smooth operations worldwide. According to Ling, three critical areas that contribute to operational excellence are technical, security, and business operations. He emphasized that fostering good communication between them is vital. Additionally, Ling suggested using data center architecture management platforms to optimize IT assets.
Ling stressed the importance of people in maintaining data center performance, reducing downtime, and minimizing losses for clients. He also highlighted the significance of data center security, which is crucial for securely storing physical servers, adhering to local regulations, and implementing security operations. Ling mentioned that PDG's clients regularly review their security protocols to guarantee their data's safety and security.
Ling recommends a four-pronged approach to achieve zero downtime and zero loss, which includes focusing on people, implementing robust security protocols, investing in a reliable data center architecture management platform, and maintaining clear communication between data center operators and clients.
