Course Overview

Most outages involving data centre environmental performance are triggered by a change somebody considered routine. Technical debt in environmental performance is borrowed against future delivery capacity, at compound interest. Progress on this strand of technology and systems delivery is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. Applied research in technology and systems delivery consistently shows that early structure around data centre environmental performance reduces downstream rework. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for the wider technology and systems delivery agenda. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in environmental performance before they become incidents. The course covers data centre environmental performance at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of environmental performance and supervised application. Participants leave with a plan for the practice within technology and systems delivery sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.

Expected Learning Outcomes

01

Anticipate the objections that data centre environmental performance will attract internally and answer them in advance.

02

Adapt recognised practice on environmental performance to local constraints without hollowing it out.

03

Secure the software supply chain and dependencies within data centre environmental performance.

04

Sequence improvements to environmental performance so that each step makes the next one easier.

05

Build the deployment pipeline for data centre environmental performance so releases are routine rather than events.

06

Design the architecture of environmental performance around its failure modes, not only its happy path.

07

Apply data protection and retention requirements within data centre environmental performance.

Who Should Attend

01

02

Network and communications engineers supporting environmental performance.

03

Compliance and governance staff whose remit includes data centre environmental performance.

04

IT governance and audit staff reviewing environmental performance.

05

Course Modules

01

Data centre environmental performance: requirements, targets and service levels

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Making releases of data centre environmental performance routine instead of risky

  • Review access rights on data centre environmental performance and remove what is no longer needed.
  • Benchmark the organisation's environmental performance against comparable operations.
  • Document the runbook for data centre environmental performance to the level a new engineer could use.
  • Configure alerting on environmental performance that reflects what users experience.

Session 2Sizing capacity for environmental performance on measured growth

  • Define incident severity levels for data centre environmental performance and the response each triggers.
  • Inventory third-party dependencies inside environmental performance and their update status.
  • Identify single points of dependency in data centre environmental performance and reduce them.
  • Measure current load on environmental performance and project it forward twelve months.
02

Environmental performance: build, pipeline and release discipline

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Least privilege in environmental performance without blocking the work

  • Prepare the summary of data centre environmental performance that senior management will read.
  • Decide what will be stopped to create capacity for environmental performance.
  • Run a load test on data centre environmental performance at expected peak plus a margin.
  • Confirm data retention and deletion rules applied within environmental performance.

Session 2Monitoring environmental performance from the user's point of view

  • Plan the decommissioning of the legacy component data centre environmental performance replaces.
  • Map the handovers in environmental performance between functions and secure them.
  • Write down the assumptions underpinning the approach to data centre environmental performance.
  • State the availability and recovery objectives for environmental performance as numbers.
03

Environmental performance: documentation, support and handover

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1The hard cases in environmental performance and how to reason about them

  • Confirm the support model and escalation path for data centre environmental performance.
  • Estimate the resource environmental performance requires to run as designed.
  • Draft the minimum viable technical standard for data centre environmental performance.
  • Close out actions on environmental performance rather than leaving them open indefinitely.

Session 2Keeping data centre environmental performance alive after the initial push

  • Identify the single points of failure in data centre environmental performance.
  • Set the review interval for environmental performance and who attends.
  • Prepare the response for the most likely failure in data centre environmental performance.
  • Set delivery and reliability indicators for environmental performance the team trusts.
04

Environmental performance: architecture and designing for failure

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1The change to environmental performance that caused the last outage

  • Anticipate the objections data centre environmental performance will raise and prepare the answers.
  • Confirm that those complying with environmental performance understand why it exists.
  • Establish what evidence demonstrates data centre environmental performance is under control.
  • Test the failover for environmental performance rather than assuming it works.

Session 2Comparing environmental performance with recognised practice

  • Apply change control to data centre environmental performance including emergency changes.
  • Confirm every release of environmental performance can be rolled back within a defined time.
  • Establish who is informed, consulted and accountable in data centre environmental performance.
  • Record the rationale for each significant choice made about environmental performance.
