Presentation Title:
Beyond Fault Tolerance: Data Center Active Fault Avoidance Strategies

Speakers:
Chris Brown, CTO, Uptime Institute
Pitt Turner, Global Executive of Network & Senior Tier Certification Authority, Uptime Institute

Summary:
Even in the best-designed and operated data centers, facilities can become vulnerable during highly stressful incidents. Uptime Institute CTO Chris Brown discusses how deploying a range of increasingly cost-effective monitoring to detect equipment failures before they happen can move the industry from fault tolerance (a reactive stance) to active fault avoidance.
