Data Center
With potentially tens of thousands of users, campus networks can experience severe spikes in the network traffic caused by important events such as enrolment days. Such spikes can impact the availability, speed and reliability of online services.Therefore, an important question for the network’s administrators to consider is how to upgrade the system to include large-scale access to the cloud. This is the best way to adequately enhance the efficiency and quality of the campus network.
Campus datacenters must be able to cope effectively with the high degree of complexity that characterizes the diversified, open, and flexible network environments of contemporary college campuses. With typical network architectures that allows for the coexistence of many different operating systems, a campus datacenter must be able to meet the high-performance demands of relevant departments, while remaining easy to maintain. The network infrastructure must also be able to respond to massive volumes of Internet traffic.
Once the demands of high network efficiency have been met, attention can be turned to energy conservation and carbon reduction, by working to eliminate expensive power bills and to establish a benchmark for a green campus.
