Every business scattered around the world carries with
itself useful resource of data which can be used in writing a success story of
the business. Each and all data are very important for business organizations,
which are used by the administration department for formulating policies, plans
and determining the possible course of action of the business. This makes the
word “data” very important term in the business arena and, every business organization
places much emphasis in building cohesive structure for maintenance and storage
of data and properly disseminating them when required. This structure, in the
information technology and business world, is termed as data center where
systems and sub-systems are fabricated to look after the business needs of
larger scale organizations.
The operation of any organization to a large extent depends
upon a continuous flow of data and power across the computing environment of
the business organization. Modern data centers create a back up facility for data,
by duplication of fiber optic that transmits data across servers within an
entity and creating a backup for power, which would ensure continuity in
operation. The possibility of creating infrastructure for data center,
especially with Tier 4 technology is almost impossible for small-scale
organizations as its requires huge investment, both in terms of workforce and
equipment, constructed to cope with the business requirements.
Now coming to the various structures of data center, Uptime
Institute is one who is behind the classification of the data center. There are
4 types data centers based on infrastructure facility adopted by organizations
to make data available from a particular location. Among them, Tier 4 is the
best one which possesses all the features of Tier I, II & III on it. This
is supposed to be the most advanced backup facility with high quality
safeguarding features attached to it, making it more suitable for large-scale organizations
which need big facility to handle huge data environment. One could narrate the
following advantages, which even sets it apart from the other 3 lower level
Tiers.
- Apart from meeting the requirements of all the lower level Tier’s, Tier 4 also includes systems which help in preserving the data like cooling system (HVAC), heat environment or ventilating method which are backed by dual power structure to make them work properly day in day out.
- The infrastructure is so developed that it in case of a fault in the power system, power still gets supplied to support continuity of business operation.
- The system availability is 99.995%, with 96 hours of power back up which makes it open to be used almost any time when one requires, with reduced unavailability time compared to other Tiers.
- There are two paths which are active every time for distribution of information across various ends.
- The possibility of failure that can occur, is 1 in a span of 5 years
Tier 4 data center is mostly suitable for international organizations
which usually faces high cost of disruption and would not like to incur such
extra cost. So, many large-scale organizations opt for Tier 4 data center which
reduces the cost of disruption and increases the flow of work and revenue.
