Learn how to scope, plan, and implement a data center design to meet the ever-expanding demands of today’s modern business environment. Utilising current best practices and applicable standards across the key data center infrastructures.
The program has a comprehensive agenda that explores and addresses the key elements associated with designing a data center. It teaches best practice principles for the design, construction, and operation of computer rooms and data center facilities. The program also addresses the requirements of a successful design to meet the business needs, incorporating the key infrastructure elements of the physical infrastructure, electrical distribution systems, air-conditioning, data cabling, and building support systems. It concludes with a comprehensive case study exercise that leads learners through the design steps from initiation to commission, covering the business decisions, design scope, and implementation phases that need to be addressed throughout the design configuration process.

The program has been designed to be interactive with several case studies and group exercises. A modular approach will take the delegates through the four stages of Crisis Management - Preparation, Planning, Response, and Recovery. Participative lectures will involve the use of PowerPoint, handout material, work manual with all instructor notes and slides, examples of best practice, and appropriate video/DVD material. The use of flip-charts, syndicate workshops, and reporting back sessions will encourage a fully participative and enjoyable event.
Continuous Monitoring and Security Operations will teach you how to strengthen your skills to undertake that proactive approach. Security monitoring is the automated process of collecting and analyzing indicators of potential security threats, then triaging these threats with the appropriate action.
