With business growing — and the completion recently of several company acquisitions — the firm made the decision to expand its data center operations to a Tier III colocation (colo) facility.
The data center team took the opportunity to exam its cabinet configurations and power distribution strategy, and to introduce new efficiency tools to both data centers.
As one of the largest broadcasters in the U.S., Raycom Media owns and operates 46 television stations in 36 markets – serving more than 12 percent of U.S. television households. Raycom wanted to improve how it manages and maintains its broadcast equipment and distributes time-sensitive programming content to its growing roster of television stations – while keeping operations costs down. They turned to Raritan for an advanced, highly-available access-and-control solution that could deliver improved operations in both its Charlotte NOC and remote station locations.
Molex needed a more responsive way to manage their Asia Pacific data center servers. In addition, they wanted to move to a lights-out data center for added security. Raritan switches, console servers and PDUs were used to provide integrated remote management of servers and other devices, and Molex now enjoys simplified maintenance, increased uptime and improved security.
