Telco

Automating data center intelligence for accurate and reliable performance data

WHAT ARE THE CHALLENGES FACING telco data centER OPERATORS?

No matter the scale and size of a facility, a Telco operation requires a system that supports and maintains its challenging uptime goals. The dynamics of this challenge includes response times and the implementation of IMACs to compliance, corporate policies and standards.

Without a sophisticated Universal Intelligent Infrastructure Management tool (DCIM 2.0), these operations that are supporting multi-tenancy customers cannot afford to take the risk of not knowing every situation nor having the ability to plan.

The main challenges faced by Telcos is the ability to integrate knowledge from all departments, to bring together faiclities and IT to support the outputs of BMS, CRM, ERP and multitenancy and PDU monitoring. Added to this is the ever growing demand from customers for transparency.

Customers want more control and access to what is happening inside their space. They want the opportunity to plan their own work orders and of course, they want all of this in real-time.

scenario: access to accurate and reliable information

Author: mark acton

The typical Telecommunication infrastructure deployment may involve many hundreds or thousands of small Points of Presence (PoP).

These are increasingly analogous, or even identical to Edge data center sites. The challenges associated with a widely distributed technology estate are very similar whether these are called data centers or PoPs. The requirement to have an accurate equipment inventory with power and communications dependencies; to monitor and manage site performance or environmental factors and the need to provide low overhead support for remote installations, moves, adds and changes are identical.

These complex estates can only be properly managed with access to accurate and reliable information to manage these diverse sites. This requires the use of more effective remote monitoring tools and intelligent management systems incorporating advanced features such as 3D simulations, knowledge-based algorithms, trending and prediction of potential problems or impending capacity constraints. All using Machine Learning and Analytics to gather vital data, interpret and accurately display the resulting information.

telco data centER solution: bridging the gaps

Real-time information from live systems is becoming increasingly available allowing real time decision making and even control where appropriate. This can lead to a reduction in manual error prone processes, a reduction in operational resources and access to far more accurate information. Because data is collected from complex multi-layered and distributed systems gaining true value from this wealth of data requires the correct tools to be deployed using both greater integration and analytical techniques to take advantage of this information potential.

The net effect of this is to operational overhead, reduce capacity wastage, offer faster decision making and control to offer a compelling ROI.
