Data Center Assessment
Is your data center running as efficiently as possible? Are you ready for new server technology that may require different cooling and power requirements?
Since the change in technology never stops are you ready for:
- High Performance Compute Clusters
- Water cooled servers
- Server upgrades
- Changes to your networks
- Downsizing
- Upgrading equipment
If environmental conditions are not taken into consideration during these changes a company could experience reliability issues within their mission critical facilities. Downtime is not acceptable, even the most robust technology is only as good as the infrastructure that supplies the power and protection to keep it running.
Our experienced team performs on-site data center assessments to examine the current performance and design of your facility. This is helpful when planning for the future as it identifies existing and future power and cooling capabilities. By conducting a Single-Point-of-Failure (SPOF) analysis our engineers are able to identify issues that may result in possible system interruptions and offer solutions to rectify the issue. The data center site assessment can also be helpful in identifying and resolving electrical issues within the facility. Data Center power quality problems can occur based on any number of issues like changes to your systems (adding & removing equipment), the age or your facility, harmonics, poor design installation practices, improper wiring between or within systems, or improper grounding.
Ensuring your facility can perform during power outages
AFI’s data center assessments provide a thorough look into your facility and crucial systems. Our approach takes into consideration current performance, as well as preparedness for the future. After inspection and analysis of your facility our engineers will provide you with a comprehensive report outlining the findings. The report will identify any potential trouble spots and offer solutions and recommendations for rectifying the issues. Our comprehensive report will include design considerations, technology improvements and maintenance programs necessary to “harden” your facility against possible interruptions.
