Course Description:
This five-day course provides a comprehensive, structured exploration of modern data center
environments. Building on foundational concepts, participants will gain practical knowledge of the
physical and architectural aspects that enable reliable, scalable, and efficient data center operations.
Through a mix of lectures and hands-on labs, learners will understand data center history and design
principles, the internal layout, and the diverse types of data centers. The course covers power design
with redundancy, cooling strategies, and robust hardware considerations (racks, cabling, grounding,
flooring, and flooring surfaces). It also delves into core data center components (servers, NAS, switches,
routers, load balancers) and their redundancy, as well as data center networks (testing and
troubleshooting), device turnup and configuration, monitoring and maintenance, and upgrade planning
for components and software.
