The above formula shows how you can calculate the cost of downtime for yourself. This is useful in presenting a business case to your organization.
However, this formula doesn't factor in a downtime's impact on reputation, loyalty, and employee productivity and morale.
5 Most Common Causes of Outages:
1. UPS battery failure (55%)
2. Accidental EPO/ human error (48%)
3. UPS capacity exceeded (46%)
4. Cyber attack (34%)
5. IT equipment failure (33%)
Regularly testing and active monitoring of UPS batteries should be a top priority.
Also, use all data center design best practices and redundancy to maintain high availability.
What error detection mechanisms are in place to detect unintended changes? Is there a process for configuration error checking?
