HARDCOVER
The
latest tested and proven strategies to maintain business resiliency and
sustainability for our ever-growing global digital economy.
Here is a
comprehensive study of the fundamentals of mission critical systems, which are
designed to maintain ultra-high reliability, availability, and resiliency of
electrical, mechanical, and digital systems and eliminate costly downtime.
Readers
learn all the skills needed to design, fine tune, operate, and maintain mission
critical equipment and systems. Practical in focus, the text helps readers
configure and customize their designs to correspond to their organizations'
unique needs and risk tolerance.
Specific
strategies are provided to deal with a wide range of contingencies from power
failures to human error to fire. In addition, the author highlights measures
that are mandated by policy and regulation. The author of this text has worked
in mission critical facilities engineering for more than twenty years, serving
clients in banking, defense, utilities, energy, and education environments. His
recommendations for maintaining essential operations are based on firsthand
experience of what works and what does not. Most chapters in this text
concentrate on an individual component of the mission critical system,
including standby generators, automatic transfer switches, uninterruptible
power supplies, and fuel, fire, and battery systems.
For each
component, the author sets forth applications, available models, design
choices, standard operating procedures, emergency action plans, maintenance
procedures, and applicable codes and standards.
Extensive
use of photographs and diagrams illustrates how individual components and
integrated systems work. With the rapid growth of e-commerce and 24/7 business
operations, mission critical systems have moved to the forefront of concerns
among both private and public operations. Facilities engineers, senior
administrators, and business continuity professionals involved in information
technology and data center design should consult this text regularly to ensure
they have done everything they can to protect and sustain their operations to
reduce human error, equipment failures, and other critical events.
Adapted
from material the author has used in academic and professional training
programs, this guide is also an ideal desktop reference and textbook.
