All good web hosting companies have a Data Center which is a facility used to store and manage websites & other Internet information through a network of secure servers. These Data Centers house powerful computer servers connected to the Internet 24×7×365. Secure data centers may also contain a network operations center (NOC) used for monitoring server activity, network performance, & Internet traffic.

I believe that Data centers are typically very expensive to build and maintain.
So, it will be great to deal with web hosting providers that have their own Data Centers.

It is essential for a datacenter to include fire protection systems. The web hosting companies install smoke detectors so as to give an early warning. Hand held fire extinguishers and a fire sprinkler system are also provided to control the fire.

Dear,
With regard to web hosting, a data center (sometimes spelled datacenter) is a specialized facility designed specifically for housing web servers, including regulated power, dedicated Internet connection, security and support.

Understanding Data Centers

Data centers are – incredibly complex, with interactions between servers, rack and power systems, data storage, meet-me rooms for cross connects, cooling systems, monitors, alarms and alerts, and much more.

As technology advances with – higher performance hard drives, quad core processors and such, power density has become a critical link for maximum performance and cost-effectiveness. For example, dual core processor technology operates in the same power envelope as single core, delivering increased performance per watt.

In order to effectively manage Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) in – managing a data center, look to high performance and low power consumption solutions. Lowering power consumption relates to greater realized density – without being forced to retrofit / upgrade existing cooling systems. As most data centers are designed with a 20 year life span, and given the expense to build out new centers, heat loads of 40 to 70 watts per square foot of yesteryear do NOT begin to address today’s power consumption of 200 watts per square foot.

What does all of this mean – to the data center client? As competition in the industry “heats up,” prices are driven down, lowering net profits. For your business to successfully colocate servers in a data center, that data center has to turn a net profit. It’s a partnership shared to leverage investments on both sides of the rack.

Hi guys... u posted very good info on "Data center" i also want to post something on this

A data center is a centralized repository, either physical or virtual, for the storage, management, and dissemination of data and information organized around a particular body of knowledge or pertaining to a particular business.

Data centers contain information that is critical to the continued operation of the bank, university, or other business. Therefore, that data cannot be lost. Security measures surrounding such data centers are usually very strong, as are systems of climate control that keep the data center's computer systems from malfunctioning. Data centers will also almost certainly contain backup computers or mirror drives that protect against massive data loss. Such backup computers or mirror drives are routinely dependent not only on electronic power but also on battery power, so that they can continue to function in the case of an interruption of electronic power.

hai i thing data center is A data center (sometimes spelled datacenter) is a centralized repository, either physical or virtual, for the storage, management, and dissemination of data and information organized around a particular body of knowledge or pertaining to a particular business.

The National Climatic Data Center (NCDC), for example, is a public data center that maintains the world's largest archive of weather information. A private data center may exist within an organization's facilities or may be maintained as a specialized facility. According to Carrie Higbie, of Global Network Applications, every organization has a data center, although it might be referred to as a server room or even a computer closet.

In that sense, data center may be synonymous with network operations center (NOC), a restricted access area containing automated systems that constantly monitor server activity, Web traffic, and network performance.

I think data centers required a lot of expenses, as well as team, to build a data center. It also required maintenance as well as 24x7 hour support, so one can not say its easy to build a data center, Its basically a place where the data is stored , and from where reseller buy the vps, and dedicated servers.,this way a user can host his/her website online.

What a terrific thread. Data centers are on all the time. It isn't something most think of but these places have to have backup systems in place for power loss. So, most good data centers have massive generators, fuel storage and in some cases even contracts in place for fuel to be brought in if storage drops too low. When a hosting company has their own data centers then you know you are dealing with industry professionals.

A data center or computer centre (also datacenter) is a facility used to house computer systems and associated components, such as telecommunications and storage systems. It generally includes redundant or backup power supplies, redundant data communications connections, environmental controls (e.g., air conditioning, fire suppression) and security devices. Large data centers are industrial scale operations using as much electricity as a small town and sometimes are a significant source of air pollution in the form of diesel exhaust.

A data centre is a dedicated space where companies can keep and operate most of the ICT infrastructure that supports their business. This would be the servers and storage equipment that run application software and process and store data and content. For some companies this might be a simple cage or rack of equipment, for others it could be a room housing a few or many cabinets, depending on the scale of their operation.

Such systems may be proprietary and developed internally by the organization, or bought from enterprise software vendors. Such common applications are ERP and CRM systems.

A data center is essential to store, manage, process, and distribute large amounts of data of an organization. In case of any disaster, a data center professional can help in recovering the lost data. In today’s modern era, every organization needs to have a data center for its smooth running. For further details, it is better to take suggestions of an expert in this field.

The data center is a high-tech secure site, where servers of different companies are located. Simply put, the data center is a kind of "server house".

Thanks for your helpful tips on setting up a Data Center. But I want to discuss the backup in more detail. How do you set it up to make sure all your data is secure?
