In leveraging the experience of working with complex systems for over 10 years, many problems that modern servers face can be identified and prevented through the monitoring of key precursors to problems.

A physical presence also allows for a true observation of the physical conditions of the hardware and its environments, providing a more encompassing awareness of your critical infrastructure.
