Next time you come into our San Francisco data center notice how nice and crisp the air is in there. That’s right; we have just installed two new CRAC units to efficiently cool our data center and all your servers. This time around the installation went a lot smoother than last time, and it looks like we finally have the method down for this rather complicated procedure.

With the installation of the two new units, we have increased our cooling capacity by 40%. According to Industrial Market Trends, racks of servers can generate as much heat as a 7 ft. tower of toaster ovens, so cooling is one of the most important aspects of a successful colocation center.

In business as in life it is always good to be prepared. The best way of dealing with a problem is preventing the problem from developing in the first place. Should a problem with your dedicated server occur, the sooner you know about it the faster you can take action.

This is where ServePath’s monitoring services come in. This service ensures that you are proactively notified if your web site or Internet application go down, and it also offers you more visibility into the health of your server’s CPU, hard disk space and memory utilization.

With ActiveAlert monitoring we can help you make sure that your Internet-based services are always available. Should your dedicated server suddenly become unavailable, an alert will immediately be sent to you, and you can take action right away.

Server Component Monitoring makes sure that your server is running at peak performance. Predetermined thresholds will be set for your CPU, disk and memory, and if any of these thresholds are reached, you will instantly be alerted via email.
