Datacenter Designing and End-to-End Services

Our expertise on data centre designing includes feasibility assessment, planning, designing, engineering, implementation, monitoring and maintaining data centers that integrate, 'best-of-class ' critical infrastructure technologies. Our planned and structured approach will further ensure enhanced availability, scalability , redundantancy , manageablity and maintainable data center environment.

BakboN networks will ensure that the design will be inline with industry best practices, statutory and regulatory compliance requirements. The design will also ensure that all critical aspects such as information security risks, future capacity requirements are well considered in advance.

Design

To ensure that there are no challenges/rework after execution, it is important to have a well systematically designed plan with consideration of future enhancements, security and compliance requirements.

The data center design process starts with our client's management staff determining the business's data center needs, objectives and availability requirements. We then take responsibility to perform the required surveys of the existing systems and facilities. In coordination with all the clients responsible stake holders ( IT, Infosec, facilities , etc ) we identify and quantify the data center project needs and combine them with our understanding of the data centre best practices, trends and migrations strategies required to adapt future enhancements. As a result of this exercise , we develop the conceptual data center design from which we forecast the required budgets and schedules

High-Availability

The key factor to a data center designs is the ability to provide continuous operations for the network services they support. Data center availability is affected by both planned (scheduled maintenance) and unplanned (failures) events. To maximize availability, the impact from each of these must be minimized and/or eliminated.
There should be regular preventive maintenance on regular basis. 

In most data center designs, scheduled maintenance is a planned event requiring network downtime. For this reason, general maintenance is often forgone, leaving long-term availability to chance. In robust data center designs, concurrently maintainable systems are implemented to avoid interruption to normal data center operations.

BakboN networks data center design focuses to achieves high-availability by implementing a fully redundant, fault-tolerant, and concurrently maintainable IT & support infrastructure architecture in which all possible hard failures are predictable and deterministic

Flexibility

Data center must support fast, seamless, growth, and deployment of new services without a major overhaul of its infrastructure and without a major disruption to its operation.

BakboN networks data center design focuses on flexibility to adapt to changing business conditions and thereby the demands put upon its function. Our approach includes modular systems within the data centers design, where the characteristics of the modules are known and the steps to add more modules are simple, is an excellent method for achieving flexibility.

BakboN networks also considers scalability to achieve flexibility. Scalability is the design concept of proactively planning for changing requirements. A data center that is scalable has the capacity to sustain rapid growth in performance, the number of devices that it can host, and quality of services offered. Again, the use of modular systems as an excellent strategy to address growth without major disruptions.

BakboN networks helps achieve flexibility by implementing a modular IT and support infrastructure architecture allowing it to adapt quickly to unanticipated growth

Simplicity

BakboN networks design also focuses on Simplicity as a key implementation strategy. Keeping the design simple helps reduced failures due to human operational errors, reduced implementation costs, easier systems management, monitoring, and maintenance
