Sistema Informático y Centro de Datos

What is server hardware?

• Server software

• Server RAM

• Physical components of a server

• Server operating system

Mention at least three security measures in data centers.

• secure passwords

• fire extinguishers

• pet surveillance

• physical access control, security camera monitoring, fire detection systems

Explain what data networks are and their importance in a data center.

• Data networks are responsible for the physical security of a data center.

• Data networks are information storage systems in a data center.

• Data networks are used for cooling servers in a data center.

• Data networks are communication systems that allow the transfer of information between devices in a data center. They are essential to ensure connectivity, availability, and operational efficiency in a data center.

Why is computer system maintenance important?

• To increase the speed of computer systems

• It is important to ensure the proper functioning of equipment, prevent failures and data loss, improve security, and extend the life of systems.

• To reduce the amount of information stored on equipment

• To improve the quality of images in computer systems

Describe what computer systems consist of.

• Computer systems are not necessary in today's world.

• Computer systems are the combination of hardware and software that allows for data processing and specific task execution.

• Computer systems consist only of hardware without associated software.

• Computer systems do not have the ability to process data.

What is the main function of a data center?

• Send emails

• Cook food

• Store, process, and distribute large amounts of data securely and efficiently.

• Build furniture

List at least three security measures that should be implemented in a data center.

• installation of air conditioning, pest control, LED lighting

• physical access control, monitoring of security cameras, fire detection systems

What is a firewall and how does it contribute to the security of a data center?

• A firewall is a software that allows the recovery of lost data in a data center.

• A firewall is a security system that controls network traffic and filters communications to protect a data center from external threats. It helps prevent unauthorized access and cyber attacks.

• A firewall is a device that speeds up connection in a data center.

• A firewall is a communication protocol that facilitates interaction between servers in a data center.

What is a switch and what is its role in a data network?

• A switch is a device that emits radio signals in a data network.

• A switch is a computer program that controls internet access in a data network.

• A switch is a cable used to connect devices to a data network.

• A switch is a network device that interconnects multiple devices within a local network to facilitate data communication.

What is a contingency plan and why is it essential in a data center?

• A contingency plan is only an optional measure in a data center

• A contingency plan is only used in case of minor issues in a data center

• A contingency plan is essential in a data center to ensure business continuity, protect data integrity, and minimize downtime in case of emergency.

• A contingency plan is not necessary in a data center as emergencies never occur
