Data Centers
A data center can occupy one room of a building, one or more floors, or an entire building. Most of the equipment is often in the form of servers racked up into 19 inch rack cabinets, which are usually placed in single rows forming corridors between them. This allows access to the front and rear of each cabinet.
IT operations have become a crucial aspect of most organizational operations and one of the main concerns is business continuity. Government departments and private sector companies rely on their information systems to run their operations, and if a system becomes unavailable, the organization’s operations may be impaired or stopped completely. It has become crucial to provide a reliable copper and fiber cabling infrastructure for IT operations, in order to minimize any chance of disruption.
Marcomm has extensive experience working in these types of environments due to standing offers with the PWGSC. With this expertise, Marcomm is a leader in delivering large and complex assignments. Information security and physical security have become a top issue of concern, and for this reason a data center has to offer a secure environment which minimizes the chances of a security breach. A data center must therefore keep high standards for assuring the integrity and functionality of its hosted computer environment. Most of our technical and management staff are security cleared to the secret level allowing access to various security sensitive areas such as data centers.
Due to the critical operations of the data center, an emergency response line is available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.
We can provide recommendations on data centers according to your organization’s requirements. For more information, contact the nearest Marcomm office in your region.
