Explanation

Key Characteristics of a Data Center - Availability: A data center should ensure the availability of information when required. Unavailability of information could cost millions of dollars per hour to businesses, such as financial services, telecommunications, and e-commerce. - Security: Data centers must establish policies, procedures, and core element integration to prevent unauthorized access to information. - Scalability: Business growth often requires deploying more servers, new applications, and additional databases. Data center resources should scale based on requirements, without interrupting business operations. - Performance: All the elements of the data center should provide optimal performance based on the required service levels. - Data integrity: Data integrity refers to mechanisms, such as error correction codes or parity bits, which ensure that data is stored and retrieved exactly as it was received. - Capacity: Data center operations require adequate resources to store and process large amounts of data, efficiently. When capacity requirements increase, the data center must provide additional capacity without interrupting availability or with minimal disruption. Capacity may be managed by reallocating the existing resources or by adding new resources. - Manageability: A data center should provide easy and integrated management of all its elements. Manageability can be achieved through automation and reduction of human (manual) intervention in common tasks.
