Blog provided by Electric Kitten When you host your servers in a data center, you get access to a wide range of benefits that can improve your business. Here are some of the top advantages: Security – Data centers provide around-the-clock security, ensuring that your servers are safe from theft or damage. They also have strict access controls in place, so only authorized personnel can enter the facility. This helps keep your data safe and secure. A further benefit is that your organization also has many of the pre-requisites for the security components of various international standards and audit requirements immediately and at no additional cost to maintain or manage. Reliability – Data centers are designed for high availability, meaning your servers will always be up and running. They have multiple power sources and cooling systems in place, so you can rest assured knowing your business is always online. These redundant resources are monitored around the clock, with sub millisecond changeover times for systems like power and cooling. Scalability – When you host your servers in a data center, you can scale up or down as needed depending on traffic demands or seasonal changes. This flexibility allows you to grow with your business without having to worry about server capacity constraints. Want more servers?

Blog provided by Electric Kitten A virtual private server (VPS) is a type of hosting where you can purchase a portion of a physical server, essentially making it your own. This gives you the ability to install and run your own software, including custom configurations and applications. How does a VPS differ from a VM? A Virtual Machine abstracts the hardware and runs an operating system on each virtual machine. While a VPS is often a single Operating System that runs containers that abstract the OS making it seem like each VPS has its own OS. There are many reasons why someone might choose to use a VPS: for example, if you need more control over your hosting environment than what’s offered by traditional shared hosting plans; if you have specific compliance requirements that preclude using public cloud services; or if you want to set up an isolated development or testing environment without having to invest in hardware and infrastructure. When choosing a VPS provider, it’s important to consider factors such as price, features offered (including operating system options), bandwidth and storage quotas, customer support quality, and the company’s reputation.

Too Much Multitasking A simple way you could be ineffectively incorporating your command center workstation into your business is by having your employees multitask too much. Researchers have studied the human mind to gain a better understanding of how people work best. The resulting studies have shown that multitasking is an inefficient way to operate. If an employee of yours is switching between working on the LCD video wall, working through spreadsheets, and sending emails throughout the say, said employee is constantly redirecting their attention. If each employee has too many roles to switch between, you run the risk of each employee not being able to work deeply on a given task. To minimize errors and help each employee work better and faster, create an environment that promotes this kind of behavior. Not Enough Communication Depending on your setup, your organization’s command center could have several people operating it at once. Much like a team sport, a group of people working together to achieve a similar goal requires clear communication. A sophisticated system from ConstantTech.com will not be of much use if the employees operating it are unable to work together. Voicing concerns, calling out signals, and keeping everyone on the same page can do wonders for your...

When it’s time to set up tents and other details for your outdoor event, you need to think about ways to keep vendors and guests from overheating. One of the outdoor cooling options to consider is portable AC units. These can be set up on tables around the outdoor event so that the air circulates from one area to another. Portable units are often smaller than a standard air conditioner but cool a significant space the same as a large unit would. Evaporative coolers are also an option. These are fans that are set up to blow across a filter that has water inside. As the water is cooled from the fan, the air in the area will begin to cool. This is an option to consider if you’re in a dry environment. Standing fans can also be used in conjunction with the coolers as a way to circulate more air through tents and buildings that are set up at the event. If there is a secure ceiling in the tent or venue, then you can use ceiling fans. Before setting up for the festival, try to position tents and buildings in areas where there isn’t as much asphalt says MovinCool. The material can radiate heat, making guests and vendors feel hotter than what they already feel from the air temperature. Try to set up the event in shaded areas as well. Misters are also an option and come in various sizes so that people can hold them when they are participating in selling or special events at the...
