A Day at the Network Operations Center of the Baltic's Largest Data Center
Every website, online store, Facebook page, or other internet service physically resides somewhere. Typically, these are hosted in data centers where service providers house their equipment.
At the heart of a data center is the Network Operations Center (NOC), manned around the clock to ensure everything functions perfectly: climate control systems maintain required temperature and humidity levels, power feeds remain stable, nothing overheats, doors stay locked, and unauthorized individuals don’t wander around. The list goes on.
Who keeps an eye on the equipment while the IT manager is on holiday?
You have probably all seen the NASA control center in a film. A room with a large screen and some smaller monitors, filled with people intently watching the screen and knowing the status and vital parameters of every piece of equipment on board the spacecraft. A similar control center, with a huge screen and a dedicated staff, can also be found in larger data centers. They will not be going into space, but much like the people working at NASA, they have a critical role to play in the success of the mission.
