Environment Monitoring

Environment Monitoring in computer rooms, data centers and other facilities has become a critical part of Disaster Prevention for professional managers everywhere. The reason is that a typical IT infrastructure supports the entire organization. Without continued operation of IT resources, an organization may have no access to information, databases, email or the Internet.

The most common environment problems encountered in today's IT facilities are air conditioning and power failure. Air conditioning failure can lead to high temperatures, high or low humidity, water flooding and more. Power failure can lead to costly network, server, and website downtime - not to mention the cost to replace or fix expensive systems. Extreme temperature changes due to heating or cooling equipment failure and even seasonal changes can damage hardware, threaten uptime, block network access and destroy data. During downtime, ongoing costs continue to accrue while more and more profits are lost. However, there are easy, inexpensive and proven solutions available to prevent environment caused disasters.
