Hurricane Sandy: Data center lessons learned

The Uptime Institute

posted by mstansberry

Featured Session of Uptime Institute Symposium 2013: Hurricane Sandy recently stressed, if not compromised, a number of data centers located in the Northeast U.S. A few of the heroic efforts needed to keep some data centers operational, such as carrying buckets of fuel to the roof, have been characterized in the industry press. However, the size of this weather event and the number of data centers in the region warrant a more holistic and comprehensive review of the actual consequences.

The Weekend Review: The Web Experience, CES and Q4 In Cloud/Big Data

Author: Connie Hwong

With the haze of CES and quarterly earnings calls on everyone’s minds, it’s no surprise that research on consumer devices and the show in Vegas was some of the most popular content on Pro this week.

As mobile devices (such as smartphones and tablets) continue to rise, content providers are struggling to contend with a rapidly-growing consumer base that expects zero latency across multiple devices in their user experience. Cravens analyzes the major factors that impact web experience and presents a pair of case studies before presenting her shortlist of emerging solutions for addressing web content delivery.
