The critical nature of IT equipment and the unique environmental requirements that support its operation finds it necessary for OITS to use specialized precision cooling systems in the data center locations. Our data centers are 24 x 7 x 365, temperature and humidity conditions are maintained around the clock. The precision system is designed specifically to cool electronic equipment. Servers and other IT equipment are generally designed to operate within a certain temperature and humidity range that must be maintained. Conditions outside these ranges can cause damage to data center equipment. Industry best practices demand precision environmental and 24 x 7 x 365 support operations of the data center.
