Intelligent management of datacenter migration

Datacenter migration, data is one of the most important commodities of today's enterprises. Whether enterprises are specialized in processing and selling, or just using them, data are king. A recent study by CB Richard Ellis shows that the data center market in Europe is still booming, and the capacity of enterprise leased data centers has reached a record high.

But in order to meet the demand for data growth, the data center is having to use more servers, racks and hardware, which are increasingly difficult to monitor. The complexity of the dynamic environmental management of the people, electricity and assets of the data center is creating a huge data blind point, which means that the problem of inefficiency needs to be solved. And the problem is as big as a snowball. With the increasing application of the Internet of things in the 2018, more data is pouring in, and the traditional data center will be overwhelmed without proper planning.
Today, the speed of data growth and the growth rate of business demand are undeniable facts. Intelligent monitoring and automation must meet the increasingly complex management requirements to achieve the desired level in the foreseeable future.
If organizations are looking for new solutions, the first thing that must be done is planning. A better architecture can make network devices more flexible, programmable and flexible.
However, improper planning is a serious defect that must be avoided. Even if the organization takes appropriate solutions, it will be difficult for organizations to benefit from these solutions without appropriate strategies, which will eventually affect the organization's income.
Organizations need to develop an implementation plan that includes goals and expectations to identify the benefits of implementation and, more importantly, how solutions and frameworks can be used by site personnel.
Without this, new software and hardware will be installed, and engineers are almost ignorant of the real potential of these devices.
In addition, the direct result of more and more devices being added to the enterprise network is that the data center now deploys more frames to store these data, and the power density is higher than ever before, and also to run the required applications and services. This brings the fundamental problems and potential problems to the forefront.
First, deploying more cabinets in the machine room will lead to a rise in the temperature of the data center environment, which may have a huge impact on the performance of IT devices. If not solved, it may lead to a breakdown of the IT device, and the IT staff can only try to save the core data.
However, if you have the ability to track the data of the whole center and understand its tiny position in the whole room, it will make the cooling more effective and make the data center work smoothly without the downtime.
Having this capability also means that data center managers do not have to seek to expand the physical space of the computer room. By installing new and improved toolkits, data center managers can track data and see how to store data more effectively.
Without this vision, data center managers may need more budget, waste time and expenses to build new room space or install more rack.
Power interrupts and downtime in the data center will cause a lot of damage and impact on the profits of users and operators, such as the unexpected shutdown of Microsoft Azure's service for North European customers in 2017. If we do not learn from such an event, we will have a huge impact on the future revenue stream of data center operators. After all, if the user's trust is not available, the reputation of the operator will be disastrous.
It is time for organizations to protect themselves, using monitoring software to ensure that enterprises can not only maintain operation, meet their income needs, but also be able to combine with the latest increment in the space of the machine room, so as to prepare for the intelligent planning of the future service.
From a simple cost-benefit analysis, it is not worthwhile to rely on outdated, obsolete (usually artificial) solutions without implementing the DCIM solution. DCIM can realize intelligent real-time decision for monitoring, network and usage mode of the entire data center. In addition, the fault insurance mechanism can be introduced, which can use a custom alert creation form to obtain correct important information to the correct team or individual so that they take evasive measures to avoid future data interruptions. Taking precautions will bring some benefits.
DCIM can be a protective measure to reduce the growing burden of existing infrastructure, ensuring that the organization is as efficient as possible, and requires a single view of the data and performance issues in the data center. It is no longer an add-on component, but an important part of the organization's data center to save money and time and improve performance.
