數據中心相闋的科技發展一日千里，受惠於目前運算需求不斷改變， 再加上香港辦公室與營運地點空間有限，企業必須盡用每一寸機櫃空間。採用由iDCmini 提供的「Tidy Patch System」，自然更有效地管理機房的網絡，以及相關佈線 (cabling) 設備…

雲端運算平台越來越流行，但考慮到部分企業不論規模大與小，都有需要自建伺服器與建立混合雲(Hybrid Cloud) 架構，以保障數據私隱或滿足特別營運需求。在香港寸金尺土的辦公室內，一般難以建立標準數據中心規格的機櫃， iDCmini 就成為其中一個技術出路…

Hyper-Converged Infrastructure is a new type of system with a software-centric architecture that tightly integrates compute, storage, and networking from scratch in a commodity hardware box. With this new technology, the infrastructure is cut down […]

We have to admit that cloud computing is our future, regardless of the public cloud, private cloud or hybrid cloud infrastructure. Cloud computing offers us many benefits, it gives us flexibility, significant savings, as well […]

i. Less Hardware and Space Virtualization allows for less physical hardware, such as servers, switches, and even firewalls. With less equipment, the number of cables will be reduced as well. New servers designed for virtualization […]

Last week, we introduced the physical savings of virtualization, and how it may even reduce your running costs in the long run. But one of the leading concerns for virtual machines is reliability, virtualization technologies […]

The impression of a traditional datacenter is very noisy, highly power consuming, and large space requirements. It requires critical facilities such as essential power and 7×24 chilled water, in-order to protect the IT equipment such […]

Electrical power is a critical element in every reliable data center/server room and directly affects the level of system availability. Several key power components exist in a data center/server room design. These include the main […]

As you can imagine, a wide variety of rack power distribution unit (PDU) configurations are available based on parameters such as: number of phases, voltage, total amps, branch circuits, number of outlets, socket type, plug type, rack units […]

At one time when water was cheap and plentiful it appeared to be a fantastic solution, but today water is now neither plentiful nor inexpensive.  Cooling towers burn through potable water, they use expensive chemicals, […]
