Data centers consume massive amounts of energy, and the computers driving them must operate efficiently while managing power distribution at scale. Power outages or inefficiencies can cause disruptions and increase operational costs. Designing high-efficiency power supplies, incorporating power redundancy, and supporting dynamic scaling are some of the techniques at an engineer’s disposal. We will look at these and other methods that can be deployed.

Data centers require continuous uptime and resilience against failures, cyberattacks, and other disruptions. Products deployed in this space must meet high standards for availability and data protection. As a result, engineers must design fault-tolerant systems with redundancy and automatic failover capabilities. That requires implementing a series of security-related principles, including encryption, hardware security modules, and secure boot mechanisms, as well as compliance with the proper industry standards and regulations. In this webinar, we will look at the present and future needs of maintaining secure, reliable, and resilient data centers.
