It is common knowledge that Hardware maintenance is one of the most crucial steps in producing High performance and delivering optimum output. According to Stream Data Centers, the annual cost of maintaining a Large Data Center comes out to be about $25 Million per Annum. A large portion of it goes into the Maintenance of Hardware, Software, Disaster Recovery, Continuous Power Supplies and Networking Equipment.
There is 1 Data Center for every 100 people in the US alone. It is thus crucial to maintain Data Center Equipment and keep them in top form at all times so that they continue to deliver results.
