Servers PDF Print E-mail

The most important part of any server room is, of course, the same servers. These are computers, whose task is to provide services to other computers (computers-clients). Typically, this task is handled with the provision of corporate resources - programs., Files and equipment - all computers connected to the network.



Because of the role remain, a key issue for the operation of servers is their reliability, because normally, instead of ordinary computers, the specialized workstations designed for continuous mode. They use a special SCSI hard drives, transfer and a higher capacity, more reliable memory with error correction code (ECC), and multiprocessor motherboards. Of course, the quality of these elements must be much higher than in the case of home desktop, and they must cooperate with each other perfectly, so the system integrator usually orders servers directly from one of the producers. They are more expensive to obey, but also much more reliable than PCs and checked-składaki. The latter are used in smaller serwerowniach, where reliability requirements are lower and financial capabilities - smaller.



One of the most important characteristics of the server - as in the case of UPS, redundancy, or redundancy. But in this case it can be understood in two ways. First, most of the factors used in servers is given in order to ensure the reliability of the entire system. This applies, above all, power systems and hard drives. In the former case, it is primarily to ensure bezprzerwowej work even in a situation where one ceases to operate with power supplies. Ghosts of hard drives for greatly affect the safety data.



In servers installs a special operating systems - better than the systems designed for home users, and to handle multiple services at once.

 
Routers PDF Print E-mail

Routers are devices specialized in the management (trasowaniu) packets of data traffic between the different networks or subnets. It is thanks to him, the network business - kolokwialnie words - "knows" to which the computer and what route is to transfer data sent by the user. So unless you do not have to explain, as a very important element of any network is a router.

Switches PDF Print E-mail

When you create one of the first computer networks, has often been the problem of collisions on the link which effectively made use of the network. And to connect with each other devices used hubs (hubs), which operate the system in the first layer ISO / OSI, which is the physical layer. Were created using the network topology of a star. Transmit one bit after beating an input signal to the output hub, which at the time when there were no collisions, minimalizowało delays. This solution, however, generated other problems. Today hubs are sometimes connected to the router as a splitter.

Firewalls PDF Print E-mail

Along with the boom in the use of computer networks in the modern world, while continuing increase access to services and the Internet, there is a problem with safety nets. To protect the data stored on computers linked in a corporate network, Server is always equipped with adequate security. The most common solution in this field are called. firewalls.

Monitoring data center work PDF Print E-mail

At current levels of development and the complexity of the data center (called data center), it is necessary to accurately monitor the performance of its work. According to the saying "time is money", every minute failure of the corporate server generates financial losses. In order to be competitive in the market must have a large and easily accessible collection of information. To ensure the server rooms. So what sort of risk may be accompanied by her daily work, and how to prevent it? First it raises to mind is physical, such as fluctuations in temperature, moisture, mechanical damage to cables or wires from the coolant or interference person is effective. How to detect this type of risk while giving yourself time to react? The basis is appropriate porozmieszczanie sensors. Focus is therefore discussing each of them.
