A datacenter, also called a server farm, is a facility used to house computer systems and associated
components, such as telecommunications, applications and storage systems. It
generally includes redundant or backup power supplies, redundant data
communications connections, environmental controls (e.g., air conditioning, fire
suppression) and security devices. |

Why should my organization consider moving our server environment to a
datacenter? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Infrastructure Cost
Savings:
Take advantage of our secure facility, custom built for data center storage, without
taking on the financial burden of maintaining your own facility. |
|
|
|
|
|
Time Savings:
A tremendous investment of time and resources is required to maintain a suitable
facility for e-mail, web site, network and applications servers. By outsourcing
your data center to i.t.works your staff can focus on initiatives focused on
increasing revenue. |
|
|
|
|
|
Lower Maintenance
Costs:
Computing environments need stable power, emergency back-up systems, controlled access,
and carefully monitored climates. These requirements can quickly expend your
time and financial resources. i.t.works provides an effective and secure
environment that meets stringent business requirements, at a fraction of the
cost of an in-house data center. |
|
|
|
|
|
Alleviate
Operational Expenses:
By locating your computing environment in our datacenter, your business can take
advantage of a professional staff that is highly skilled in running and managing
a data center. Additionally, your access to functional expertise is increased,
without burdening internal resources. Your staff members can spend their time
innovating and developing new ways to improve your IT systems, rather than
simply keeping things running. |
|
|
|
|
|
Improve Security without Increasing Costs:
The importance of protecting your information and equipment against disaster and
outside influences is a critical priority, but is also expensive to manage and
maintain. Our data center facility provides multiple redundant state-of-the-art
security features that includes:
-
Biometric scanners
-
Secured card access
-
High-security, tamper-proof cabinets
with specially keyed locks

server rooms

and increased network reliability. |

How are other companies adopting datacenter services? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are a wide variety of adopted uses of the datacenter. Many new companies are fully
adopting the virtual capabilities by using virtual desktops connecting to
virtual servers that exist in the datacenter. However, established companies
may transition to this environment by moving older equipment into the datacenter
by leasing rack space. Then as their equipment is outdated replace one server
at a time with virtual servers. All organizations differ and I would recommend
consulting with one of our technical consultants to see how these new services
can help your organization lower risk and cost. |
