Data Center Infrastructure- An Inside Perspective 

The data center infrastructure market is projected to grow from USD 5.111 Billion in 2023 to USD 18.57 billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.50% during the forecast period (2023 - 2032). Data centers are chief components of most organizations’ business strategies. Cloud-based developers and managed service providers require rich connectivity options, which can only be offered by a data center infrastructure. Data center infrastructure, simply put, is core physical/hardware-based components and resources such as all IT equipment and technologies & infrastructure devices, which includes a data center. This is modeled as well as identified in the design plan, which entails a complete list of essential infrastructure components that are used for creating a data center.

Key Components of Data Center Infrastructure:

Some of the major components of a data center infrastructure include,

  • Data center management applications/software 
  • Storage such as backup/tape storage or storage area network
  • Security such as biometric or firewall security system
  • Networking equipment like switches or routers 
  • Computers 
  • Servers 

It also comprises some non-computing resources like,

  • Internet backbone 
  • Cables 
  • Physical server racks or chassis
  • Cooling and power devices like generators or air conditioners 

Functionalities of Data Center Infrastructure:

A data center infrastructure is in great demand owing to these top functionalities,

  • Data Collection - First and foremost, it helps to gather all information in real-time such as circuit capacities, thermal and cooling data, data center layout, power equipment, racks, and HVAC. 
  • Seamless Integration - The data center infrastructure offers seamless integration of every component as it has a circuit, storage, and power equipment made by different vendors. 
  • Power-Driven Change Control - It is vital for a data center infrastructure to handle day to day control changes and maintenance for a successful data center operation. 
  • Centralized Control - Irrespective of how elaborate the interface of different DCIM tools is, it is must to offer the managers and operators with an effective central data center control dashboard that has complete alerts, and generated post gathering, filtering, and analyzing different data. Thereafter, the actions and alerts are picked up or configured from a ready list. 
  • Visualization - A data center infrastructure must provide graphic visualization for that complete management and monitoring of every domain comprising the facilities, systems, and networking equipment. 
  • Power Management - A modern data center infrastructure helps a data center operator to plan everything as per the actual power usage. 
  • Metrics and Reporting - A data center infrastructure works wonders in offering simplified reporting and metrics. 
  • Capacity Planning and Provisioning- Last, but not the least, a data center infrastructure also ensures capacity planning and provisioning. 

Eco-Friendly Data Center Infrastructure Is In 

This is an era where people are in favor of things that are eco-friendly, which causes minimal or no harm to the environment. Taking this into consideration, environmentalists are also implementing data services. These data centers, of late, has gained immense popularity, and below are some of the reasons why, 

  • Bid Adieu to Redundancy - First and foremost, organizations setting up these centers are bidding adieu to redundant stuff chiefly because they do not use redundant cooling and heating systems & circuits. 
  • Energy-Efficiency - The good news is that a data center infrastructure has brought the idea of energy-efficiency to life. Companies using these data centers are making the utmost of power systems and appliances that are energy-efficient. 
  • Recycle - Servers can be recycled, which most people are unaware of. An array of organizations has implemented this technique already. 
  • Virtualization - Through virtualization, one can get away with unused servers. It helps to free some space. 

Common Errors Operators Make:

A data center is accountable for offering backend support to several data communication and mobile services. But if poorly trained officials run a data center, the situation is likely to be ugly. Take a look at some common errors which operators often make at the time of designing infrastructure as well as performing data center operations. 

  • Considering the Total Ownership Cost - It is vital for a data center managing company always to calculate the cost in its entirety that is needed to manage the premises’ operation, which is not taken care of, unfortunately. 
  • Overstuffing data centers - A data center infrastructure should never be overstuffed with all probable networking components. Due to wrong planning, the purchase manager may end up purchasing resources that may lie idle. 
  • One size fits all - The common design of one data center cannot fit all and may fail to offer results with the change in needs and conditions. This needs to be specially designed after resource planning. In fact, for any data center, it is the flexibility that acts as the key. 
  • Hiring Poorly Trained Workforce - All that a data center needs is the best of both experience and expertise. This, if left in the hands of an amateur, can result in immense loss. So it should always be given to people after complete examination and thorough training. 
  • Not Considering Mock Drills Seriously - A data center should be available round the clock, which can only be attained when the workforce is thoroughly trained to perfectly handle emergency situations in order to avoid unrecoverable losses. So, it is essential to add routine mock drills. 

Apart from these, there are other errors that they commit, such as choosing irrelevant technology, mindless purchasing of products, making the data center highly device vendor dependent, and poor communication with end-users and stakeholders. The bottom line is, a data center should have protocols and open sources that are easy to operate along with highly flexible topology. Above all, highly experienced staff is needed for leveraging the outmost perks of the technology that is adopted both for planning as well as managing a data center.
