INDUSTRY INTELLIGENCE POWERED BY THE DCA
This new approach along with specially
trained engineers who can perform tasks
across multiple disciplines rather than
the more traditional siloed approach to
engineering delivery will ensure that
the site infrastructure is kept in the
optimal operating condition without the
requirement for site-based staff.
Additional predictive maintenance
techniques ensure that any potential
issues are highlighted and dealt with
according to an agreed and scheduled plan

before they develop into problems in order
to maintain site operational effectiveness.
Finally
Maintaining the Edge means looking
after Edge sites properly in order to
maintain the operational availability and
integrity that customers expect. This
requires a different set of skills and new
approaches to the current traditional
facilities management way of managing
data centres.
The typical Edge data centre
will be unstaffed and follow
a dark site operating model
typically with a smaller
footprint than traditional core
data centres.
At Future-tech we take this on board to
ensure that we are not only maintaining
the Edge, we are also here to help you gain
and sustain your competitive Edge. ◊
