Service Delivery Model

To deliver a RIM support to the delight of the customers, one needs to factor in the infrastructure requirement to support the services. The infrastructure revolves around having the following:

Data Center

This is the repository and custodian of all data, connectivity and the necessary hardware to fire the RIM services. At most care is taken to build a class of datacenter to support the services to be rendered in the remote mode. The following outlines what goes into the building of a datacenter and the facilities it provides:

Remote operating center

The nerve center of all the activities to be carried out and hence needs a good understanding of its making. The remote operating center receives customer calls, monitors the customer assets and network proactively using the state of the art tools.

Data and voice connectivity

This is the repository and custodian of all data, connectivity and the necessary hardware to fire the RIM services. At most care is taken to build a class of datacenter to support the services to be rendered in the remote mode.

Data and voice connectivity

The remote model of support, as it replaces the physical IT support team, needs data and voice connectivity for its effective and error free operations. The links have to be optimum, maintaining a good redundancy as service failure is the least a remote infrastructure service provider can withstand. The data and voice traffic are measured and the links needed for the same are decided along with the redundancy.

Enterprise Management Tool and Remote Service Desk

Now that we have established a world class remote monitoring center, the need for the state of the art monitoring tools arises. Each customer presents us with a unique environment of servers and the usage, methods and policies followed for data security and the global policies of what can go into the network and what cannot. These are complex and sometimes difficult to solve. A good remote monitoring center should have a state of the art monitoring tools to monitor the servers, network components and the end user demands. The server monitoring tools would report the usage, optimum utilization of the cpu and ram, the idling time of serves and other such necessary details. For proactive monitoring the tools would flash the signs of the server encountering problems of any kind. Although the tools are intelligent enough to do the job proactively, human intervention is required at various levels. The reporting of the issues found, helping the IT team fix the same and guiding the team with the upgraded and the best in class solutions would entail human intervention and in remote monitoring set up the Service Desk manned by able associates, qualified and up to the standards are the guys to go to. A good remote center would have proper connectivity and facility to maintain the quality standards and secrecy/privacy of the data being handled.
