The Uptime Institute Global Data Center Survey 2023 shows that trust in artificial intelligence as a tool capable of making operational decisions has fallen sharply year on year. What is causing this reaction?
Uptime has delivered assessments of data center operations for over a decade. In this session, we present what we've learned and how those lessons can be applied to stabilize your organization in the face of climate and macroeconomic challenges.
As part of the Uptime Institute Global Data Center Survey 2023, data center equipment vendors and consultants were asked about customer spending, supply chains and DCIM adoption. This report highlights the key findings.
The key benefit of cloud computing lies in its on-demand pricing model. This enables organizations to grow or shrink their applications at will without giving the cloud provider any advance notification. Cloud providers can only offer such…
The suitability of a data center environment is primarily judged by its effect on the long-term health of IT hardware. Facility operators define their temperature and humidity set points with a view to balancing hardware failure rates against the…
The Uptime Institute Global Data Center Survey highlights the experiences and strategies of data center owners and operators in areas of resiliency, sustainability, efficiency, staffing, cloud and innovative technologies.
IT efficiency can offer the keys to unlocking a more sustainable, efficient, and reliable data center. This session provides quantified examples of improvements in business and environmental performance.
The testing of backup power systems is crucial for ensuring that data center operations remain available through power interruptions. By cutting all power to the facility and replicating a real-world electrical grid failure, pull-the-plug testing…
75% of organizations in North America have experienced supply chain delays. With organizations already stretching equipment life-cycles, how do we stay ahead of equipment and spare shortages that could leave us vulnerable?
The topic of artificial intelligence (AI) has captured the public’s imaginations, and now barely a week goes by without reports of another breakthrough. Among the many, sometimes dramatic predictions made by experts and non-experts alike is the…
Precision time systems to synchronize IT system clocks over the network have proliferated and evolved to meet the needs of reliable, secure applications.
To help address the growing scrutiny of digital infrastructure efficiency, this webinar explores some of the options available to communicate IT system efficiency and work delivered per unit of energy consumed.
This report examines multiple applications of AI and automation within data center infrastructure management (DCIM) software. Greater automation can result in improved efficiency and free up staff to focus on more complex tasks.
In recent years, Uptime Institute has published regular reports examining both the rate and causes of data center and IT service outages. The reports, which have been widely read and reported in the media, paint a picture of an industry that is…
Analyzing human error — with a view to preventing it — has always been challenging for data center operators. The cause of a failure can lie in how well a process was taught, how tired, well trained or resourced the staff are, or whether the…
