Digital Twin Model for Smart Maintenance of Data Center Facilities : Study Literature Review

Digital twin is a technology that supports the implementation of digital transformation. The digital twin was developed to support decision making in various sectors. The digital twin concept is almost 20 years old and continues to evolve for use cases for the technology in new industries. Maintenance is one of the important points of the product life cycle as the origin of the digital twin. The data center facility is one of the supporters of digital transformation which must be able to guarantee the availability of its services. The availability of data center services is affected by the chosen maintenance strategy. This paper will discuss data centers and maintenance strategies as well as definitions, characteristics to examples of implementing digital twins, especially in the case of implementing intelligent maintenance. It is hoped that with the description of this paper, more specific research opportunities related to optimizing the application of digital twins for maintenance specifically used in data center facilities are expected.
