Every data centre is unique and has its own set of priorities.Greater bandwidth and higher speed requirements are driving IT and data centre manager equipment and affecting architecture choices. It is imperative to get the physical layer right, or everything else is going to suffer. Performance problems, mismatched systems, expensive upgrades, and chances of greater network downtime all increase. From consolidation and cost to quick deployment and zero downtime, you can count on ASTON to help you solve your data centre challenges.
You can do more with your spaceOrganisations are now running infinitely more applications, installing far more servers and looking after more customers. Because of this huge growth, data centres now face physical space constraints, with little room for additional infrastructure. The large majority of those running out of space will have to make do with the sites they have by consolidating their servers and upgrading their infrastructure.
ASTON’s high density products can help you create more network capacity:
1.Free up rack space with high-density patch panels and fibre enclosures2.Patch over 3,000 fibres in a single frame that takes up only one data centre tile3.Take advantage of unused overhead space with cable management and patching platforms
Deploy Networks FasterData centre silos will soon be a thing of the past. Today's data centres must be flexible and scalable, designed for lightning fast deployments and updates. Whether you need to respond to someone else's purchasing decisions or you've planned it yourself, there are going to be moves, adds, and changes that can ruin your day.
ASTON data centre solutions can help you connect additional servers quickly and efficiently, from fast turnaround to customised systems built for faster installation.
1.Install patching faster with plug in copper and fibre cassettes2.Rely on pre-terminated and plug-and-play solutions to improve flexibility and minimize installation time
Avoid Risk and Reduce DowntimeNetwork disruptions are costly. Just the simple act of inadvertently removing the wrong patch cord can lead to huge financial losses. The average cost of data centre downtime across industries is nearly $10,000 a minute, according to a 2015 Institute study. For a data centre outage – which has an average recovery time of 119 minutes – total average costs reach more than $1,000,000.
1.Monitor network traffic in real time with passive optical TAPs2.Prevent mistakes with locking secure products3.Get peace-of-mind with products manufactured in ISO-certified facilities
Define your data centre’s needs and requirementsFrom details around standard, high and ultra-high density, to deciding on how much flexibility you want in your cabling infrastructure, different applications require different solutions.
In cloud or hyperscale data centres, your data centres are your business. Whether you are the operator or the tenant of a colo, your needs and requirements can be
quite specific.
Your enterprise data centre needs to be built to last while supporting network upgrades.
And with Service Provider data centres, supporting critical communications is an everyday responsibility. With smart people, systems and service, ASTON knows how to help you at every step of the process for your data centre: from design to manufacturing, training and deployment and on-going support and delivery.Your chosen data centre architecture is the basis for your success.Key trends driving your data centre architecture choices include virtualization, higher density, cloud computing, lower latency requirements and mobile-device traffic. In addition, the continual demand for faster speeds and new applications has led to the need for greater bandwidth and flatter topologies. There are a range of popular architectures to choose from, each with their own pros and cons, depending on your specific requirements.
