Mission Critical Engineering with an Overview of Green Technologies

Businesses that are motivated to plug into the Information Age require reliability and flexibility regardless of whether the companies are large Fortune 500 corporations or small companies serving global customers. The facilities manager was responsible for the integrity of the building. Data center reliability ultimately depends on the organization as a whole weighing the dangers of outages against available enhancement measures. Reliability modeling is an essential tool for designing and evaluating mission critical facilities. The facilities engineering department should be run and evaluated just like any other business line; it should show a profit. In order to design a building with the appropriate level of reliability, a company must first assess the cost of downtime and determine its associated risk tolerance. The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design is an internationally recognized green building certification system developed by the US Green Building Council and should not be overlooked when designing a data center.
