AI workloads, higher equipment density, and increasingly interconnected infrastructure are placing more pressure on data center power, cooling, and network systems. A reliable component does not guarantee a reliable facility. Availability depends on how the whole infrastructure performs together.
Many of the decisions that shape long-term availability are made during planning and early engineering. HBK helps project teams identify vulnerabilities before architecture, equipment, redundancy, and layout choices are locked in.
If the facility is already operating, the same work should begin as early as possible. Emerging equipment and system risks need to be understood before they develop into an availability event.
| PLAN | VALIDATE | OPERATE |
Model power, cooling, and network architecture before major capital decisions are finalized. | Test redundancy, dependencies, maintenance strategies, and expected availability before go-live. | Use equipment, incident, maintenance, and monitoring information to identify changing risk. |
The diagnostic establishes the initial system model and identifies the most important risks. HBK can then expand the analysis across other systems and sites. Powered by the ReliaSoft Asset Performance Framework, the solution connects reliability models with equipment records, incidents, maintenance history, and monitoring information.
The RAM Digital Twin is updated as equipment ages, operating conditions change, and new information becomes available. Engineering and operations teams gain a current view of risk and a practical basis for deciding where to invest, what to maintain, and what to improve.
This will bring together HBM, Brüel & Kjær, nCode, ReliaSoft, MicroStrain and Discom brands, helping you innovate faster for a cleaner, healthier, and more productive world.
