Datacenter Environmental Monitoring

As Internet commerce climbs in popularity, server uptime is essential to businesses. Uptime is a measurement of how long servers remain operational for users without crashing or requiring a reboot.

The interactions between servers and their environment often pose a major risk to server availability, with potential threats such as temperature, humidity, water leaks, intrusion, vibration, human error, and power outages. Costs of environmental threats to data centers include: replacement of damaged items, lower worker productivity due to downtime, lost revenue from unavailable server-based applications, and additional administrative time and money spent on investigating and fixing problems.

A crucial part of sustaining high availability lies in identifying and monitoring environmental threats in server rooms, which enable prompt response to detected dangers before they escalate.

Potential Common Problems in a Server / Data Center:

Overheating equipment
Unauthorized rack access
Air conditioning failure

Accidentally leaving rack door open
Gradually rising temperature in room
Leaks from air conditioner
UPS failure
HVAC vent obstruction
Electrical fire
Gaps in monitoring and responsibility

Satellite Based High Speed internet

Oneflet has been providing internet access via satellite for couple years. Thanks to a large range of solutions, we can connect the entire continent, from large organisations to small ones and to households. This is possible thanks to the VSAT technology (Very Small Aperture Terminal) allowing reception of internet via satellite.

The VSAT solutions are divided under 3 names; VSAT (using C-band and Ku-band) which is more suited to structures such as banks, publics services or large companies; WAKA miniVSAT (using Ku-band), specially created for small and medium sized companies, as well as households; finally, Hi!Ka & GoSat solution (using Ka band) for all budgets and needs, in East, central and west Africa.

Moreover, thanks to the internet, Afrikanet provides VoIP Solution (Voice over IP, which is a phone service via the internet), specially with WAKAminiVSAT, which also allows TV access and free NetFlix at night and Free Microsoft Azure Data storage and Management :

In addition, the company also sells internet wireless equipment, thus increasing the power of the signal to improve initial coverage.
