Over the past fifteen years or so the Federal government has nearly quadrupled the number of data centers it operates. These centers have been using less than half of their compute power despite the additional costs for infrastructure, real estate and energy which have rapidly become more expensive and unsustainable.
The Federal Data Center Consolidation’s goal is to shut down data centers the government does not need and consolidate and optimize the ones that remain to be more efficient by reducing the overall energy and real estate footprint of government data centers. This initiative also includes increasing the IT security in these data centers given the almost daily reports of cyber-attacks we hear about, let alone the ones we don’t.

For the U.S. Department of Defense and civilian agencies that rely on their IT infrastructure to protect national security and sensitive scientific data, application servers that are down can mean the loss of life or the loss of critical research. Time is of the essence when these disasters strike. Agency managers and division chiefs must quickly access, troubleshoot, diagnosis and repair the affected data center equipment.
Raritan’s Remote Management and Control Solutions provide an expanded level of secure remote access and centralized management for Government agencies and lights out data centers, even from an iPad® or iPhone®. These solutions provide FIPS-encrypted, secure BIOS-level interaction with the infrastructure and support the capability to power cycle, reboot, reinstall software, reimage servers and change BIOS options.

Get the latest trends in DCIM (Data Center Infrastructure Management), rack thermal management and best practices for data center design, build and operations.
Organization growth, data center consolidation and the need to provide more IT-based services place increasing demands on IT staff and data center resources such as electrical power, cooling capacity and space for IT equipment. To relieve these pressures data centers must become more efficient—extremely efficient. This event will present a series of real-world, end-user case studies so you will learn not only what efficiencies are possible but also how to make them a reality in your own data center.
This event will also include a tour of the IO Data Center - which is the largest commercially available data center in the United States to achieve Tier III Design Certification from the Uptime Institute.
You’ll see firsthand that not all data centers are created equal®.

Live programming requires access to playlists and content, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with no exception, regardless of where the information is physically located. For easier information management, servers have in the past been placed in studios, control rooms, and editing suites. However, space is often limited and the heat and noise generated are often bothersome.
If the video servers, corporate servers, database servers, animation servers, rendering servers, and playback servers become unavailable, quick troubleshooting and rebooting are essential to restoring operations, ensuring programming, and retaining consumers. Centralizing these assets and equipping the engineering staff with remote management tools can help solve these challenges.
Raritan’s Remote Broadcast Server Management and Control Solution centralizes management and provides out-of-band, remote access of critical IT resources from anywhere. Combined with tight security, power, and environmental control, the Solution provides IT and engineering with the tools necessary to troubleshoot issues, restore operations and ensure broadcast availability …anytime and anywhere.
