A Beginners Guide to IT Room Physical Infrastructure

Trends & technologies like IoT and its many applications have helped drive an Always On, Always Connected mentality that has completely evolved customer experience standards.  These demands are driving a need for resiliency in local edge environments, meaning compute & storage capacity is now coming back on premise for many applications.

In other words, this highly distributed access layer is now becoming a compute layer – one that is mission-critical to delivering a flawless (or at least acceptable) customer experience.  

There is also a growing culture of employees that demand “always on” technology and cannot tolerate downtime disruption. APC by Schneider Electric has Connected Products making it easy to remotely monitor your customers’ environments with our NEW Smart-UPS with APC™ SmartConnect– the industry’s first cloud-connected UPS!  It gives you insight into your customers' critical power. You'll have the visibility to prevent costly problems — and sustain customer loyalty and enable a more resilient Edge infrastructure.

EcoStruXure IT Partner TownHall - Cyber Security aspects

As distributed edge environments become more critical, physical security becomes more important. Nobody would leave their data centre wide open for anyone to enter, but that’s exactly how many organisations treat their edge computing sites. Often, they consist of a rack or two of gear in a non-dedicated location, perhaps a janitor’s closet, with little to no physical security. In this 4th and final webinar series, we’ll discuss physical security best practices, including environmental issues such as temperature and humidity monitoring. We’ll also update partners on the physical security features of the latest APC racks and the NetBotz line of security and environmental appliances, cameras and sensors.

Protect Me from Downtime: Customer Demands at the Edge

Edge environments by nature are often in branch or remote offices that have few if any IT staff. As a result, they need remote management capabilities, along with someone to fix problems as they are identified – before they cause disruptions for users. It’s a situation that represents a big opportunity for VAR partners to make the transition to becoming managed service providers (MSPs), performing remote management on behalf of customers. We’ll go through some of the new APC products that enable partners to remotely manage power infrastructure and discuss the Managed Service Program that helps partners develop and monetise managed services.

Fix My Problem Before it Starts: Customer Demands at the Edge

Customers have lots of decisions to make as they feel their way through the changing IT landscape. Which infrastructure and applications should stay on their own premises (if any) and what can they safely move to the cloud? This 2nd webinar in our webinar series is focused on ways partners can help customers answer these sorts of questions and, in the process, become trusted advisors. Trends like IoT are driving a need for resiliency in local edge environments, meaning compute & storage capacity is now coming back on premise for many applications – especially in industries like Healthcare, Retail, Finance, and Education We’ll go over how to use tools suite to analyse customer traffic and help them decide the best home for each application, whether on-premises or in the cloud.

Should I Stay or Should I Go?: Customer Demands at the Edge

As data in operations increase at the edge of the network, businesses spend more on digital resources.

In this on-demand webinar, Jennifer Cooke, Research Director at IDC, will share results from research involving over 1000 IT professionals in global enterprises on the edge challenges they face and recommendations on how to future-proof connected operations and edge capabilities. Jamie Bourassa, V.P. of Edge Computing for Schneider Electric, will then share how IT professionals can leverage solutions and expertise to achieve success at the Edge.

Edge Computing for Digital-First Operations

Energy volatility is increasingly affecting the service continuity and resilience of data centers. In our webinar, experts will discuss specific challenges faced by data centers across the globe, and strategic solutions to minimize their impact in the short and long term.

Energy Volatility – Challenges and Solutions for Data Centers

Customers and consumers have come to expect and rely on applications that are always available when they want them. We all expect optimal performance. If an application buffers too long or a WebEx session doesn’t open right away, we get edgy (pardon the pun), and irritated. In this environment, latency is the enemy. That reality is driving demand for computing power closer to where the users who need it are located, and fast reliable networks to connect them. In this session, we talked about the role standardised, redundant physical infrastructure plays in enabling companies to quickly deploy reliable edge solutions. It’s the kind of infrastructure that partners can help customers implement in a repeatable fashion to address edge requirements wherever they may be in a distributed environment.

Always on, Always Connected: Customer Demands at the Edge

Closing the Sustainability Gap

Many companies are now reporting on sustainability as a supplement to financial reporting. They are communicating their commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) programs. The data center industry has unique characteristics, such as high energy intensity, rapid growth, large power consumption and water usage that require specialized metrics. Standardizing these metrics will help with adoption, improve benchmarking, and progress sustainability within the industry.

We have created a comprehensive framework for environmental sustainability metrics to share with the industry. It outlines five areas of impact, which include 23 key metrics for data center operators who are in the Beginning, Advanced and Leading stages of their sustainability journey. We also identify the 17 most relevant sustainability frameworks and standards to guide data center operators in target setting, reporting, and certifying.

By joining this webinar, you’ll hear data center sustainability experts from Schneider Electric discuss:
• Incorporating metrics for your business that go beyond energy usage
• Adopting a standard framework of environmental sustainability metrics
• Frameworks and standards to help you begin your reporting process

Customer Challenges at the Edge

A recent IDC report showed that data center capacity is projected to grow 4.5 percent from 2019 to 2024[1], confirming that the market shows no signs of slowing. With this growth, comes immense pressure to operate these energy intensive facilities as sustainably as possible. Some cloud and colocation operators are publicly affirming their commitments to climate change, by tackling things like greenhouse gas emissions or adopting renewables technologies. But how will they do this?

The effective approach to curb climate change is with digitization and innovation. Cloud and colocation data centers should first consider overall strategies like climate risk or environmental commitments for their business strategies to conceptually drive change. 

By joining this webinar, you’ll hear sustainability experts from Schneider Electric discuss how to:
• enable data center solutions to tackle the climate crisis
• set actionable energy targets for your business
• accelerate action toward your carbon reduction goals and build business resilience
