Recently, one of my customers revealed to me that, because of pressures at work, he was not getting as much sleep at night. I first thought that he, like many of us, was simply complaining about his job and was being overly dramatic. However, as it turned out, he meant it! You see, reductions in staff had forced him to do more with less. Tight budgets meant that he didn't always have the right "tools" available to manage his data center efficiently. This forced him to sometimes spend more time in the office in the evening or arrive earlier in the morning. When he was away from the data center, or even in the comfort of his own home, his Blackberry was glued to his hip, constantly receiving emails alerting him to one problem or another. The result - more worries, more pressure, less downtime, less sleep!

This started me thinking about conversations I had had with other customers in recent months and it soon became apparent that many of the IT pros that I work with are in the same boat. Maybe not all were losing sleep at night, but quite a few had commented that they were certainly taking on more responsibility and increased stresses in managing their data centers.

Hey, these guys are not alone, and you may be just like them. A 2008 survey of executives and IT managers found businesses today are challenged most by the need to effectively manage increased complexities in their data centers while simultaneously keeping networks running smoothly and power consumption costs down. Yet, this same survey found that many admins lack the tools they need to, for example, properly manage power usage. Only 55% say they can, yet even then it is only at the UPS level. Can you monitor power usage, and if so, can you monitor it right down to the outlet level? That's big!

Downtime is costly. You are well aware of what it means to business; lost customers, reduced worker productivity, reduced revenues. If you've ever lost mission critical data due to an unplanned downtime, like 35% of your industry colleagues, you also know what it means to your job security. And with almost half of all IT managers reporting up to 5 events per month, you need to look at ways to minimize hardware failures.

Are you worried about injuries to employees and the resulting lost time, workers' compensation claims and even lawsuits. You should be. Even smaller servers are getting heavier and with the standard cabinet height being 42U, and higher, you've got to worry about the guys that have to clean and jerk a boat anchor over their heads to mount it in a cabinet. The incidence of back injuries and broken toes are on the rise, and if it happens in your data center, you're going to hear about it. Hey, maybe it's even your back.

These are just three concerns that we hear from our customers. What's keeping you awake at night? High temperatures in your cabinets, cable management nightmares, overcrowded and poorly designed cabinets, or how about an inability to remotely and securely manage all of your hardware, whether it's in just one location or in multiple sites, from a single pane of glass.
