Risk Free Datacenters

It starts with just a feeling. A small, intermittant sense that something isn’t right. It grows slowly but inexorably as small problems suddenly morph into schedule decimating disasters. Budgets begin to strain and fissures begin to emerge. Requests for contingency funds that began as a trickle now constitute a deluge. Fingers begin to be pointed and CYA memos are locked deep within file cabinets in the futile hope that they will serve as shields when the inevitable onslaught begins. Your datacenter project is now officially out of control. Like the humble scientist in a bad 1950’s sci-fi picture your creature has escaped and now runs amok, devastating everything in its path. The truth is inescapable; you are living your very own datacenter horror story just like….

I’m a consultant and I’m here to help

A large software company’s new CIO convinced the firm’s leadership that his background in datacenter consulting would enable him to deliver a DIY project on time and on budget.

With budget in hand the CIO brought in an army of consultants and designers to develop an easily expandable modular design. The resulting configuration met with a level of group think that would make lemmings proud and construction began. Unfortunately, no one noticed that due to a few design flaws expanding the facility would not enable them to conduct full Level V commissioning with completely shutting the facility down to test each new module. This problem was exacerbated by the fact that new components could only be added by technicians working next to their live operational counterparts. This less than reliable site was eventually completed…at a cost of twice the original budget and the jobs of the CIO and a number of his minions.
