A data center is a centralized location, either physical or virtual, for the storage, administration, and transmission of data and information related to a specific industry or body of knowledge.

When running the main applications for an organization, a data center frequently needs substantial redundant or backup power supply, cooling, redundant networking, and policy-based security systems.

Data center management include making sure that both the connections to the data center and the mission-critical data kept in the data center's storage are reliable. Additionally, it requires effectively allocating application workloads to the most affordable compute resource at hand.
