A quality pipeline is the lifeblood of every business. If you’re on a customer facing team - sales, customer success, recruiting - building pipeline is your job. Most customer facing teams spend their day in email and their CRM, yet still have to use 3-5 additional applications to get their job done. The context switching, the manual processes, and the clicking on multiple tabs are all distractions that decrease productivity, increase manual error, and affect the team’s ability to build pipeline to close sales, retain customers and recruit key hires. Mixmax enhances, personalizes and automates the communication and manual process associated with building a pipeline.

Power distribution is facilitated through different pieces of equipment that take the power conditioned by your uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and send it to your IT equipment. Power distribution units like rack PDUs can manage and even control energy consumption in smaller environments as well as large data center applications. Distributing power efficiently results in reduced operating costs and increased reliability. This guide should help you get familiar with power distribution, gain interesting insights and learn key considerations for future IT investments.
Today’s information-driven organizations depend on the 24/7 availability of their IT infrastructures. Not only are downtime costs enormous, but data integrity is threatened by an ever-growing array of hazards, including power outages, natural disasters, equipment failure, and user error. Additionally, as data centers become more software-defined, they are increasingly vulnerable to software problems and cybersecurity-related catastrophes.
While virtualization of the data center has proven to be revolutionary for IT professionals—providing increased reliability, flexibility, and control, among other benefits—in order to fully realize these advantages, DR processes must also be optimized. This can create some unique challenges as IT professionals must focus their virtualization disaster recovery strategy around backing up and recovering virtual machines (VMs) as opposed to physical servers.
Use Eaton’s disaster recovery checklist to ensure your company is prepared for an emergency or disaster. Included are specifics on department head onboarding, IT inventory assessment, network structures, diagrams, back up data procedures and more. Whether you want to assess the state of your current disaster recovery plan or start a grassroots recovery proposal, refer to this checklist to determine what’s needed to prepare for and respond to threats.
From plug and receptacle charts and facts about power problems to an overview of various UPS topologies and factors affecting battery life, you’ll find a wealth of pertinent resources designed to help you develop the optimum solution. This handbook is your one-stop source for essential information ... whether you need power protection for small, medium or large data centers; health care facilities; or other environments in which ensuring uptime and safeguarding data are critical.

Lyft’s consumer mobile app has realtime transactions totaling more than one million rides per day, so performance is critically important. The smallest lapses – even a few milliseconds – contribute to negative customer experiences and lost revenue. As Lyft’s Vice President of Engineering, Pete Morelli, explained, “The bigger you get, the better you have to be. Half an hour of downtime may have cost you five rides early on, now it costs millions of dollars in rides. The level of reliability expected of Lyft is not trivial. People are riding to work or to doctors’ appointments.
