To celebrate National Technology Day, our Rahi Engineers are reflecting on some of the major technical advances in history! From the first electronic computer to the beginning of artificial intelligence, technology is constantly developing. Here is a recap over some of the most defining moments in history. 1800’s - The Computer The first computer that resembles our present-day machines was the Analytical Engine, invented by Charles read more...
A “spare” can be defined as any asset that is not in production, but that is available to use when needed. Its value is typically an asset on the books. Spares are distinct from “consumables”, which are relatively low-cost items such as patch cords that you buy in bulk and maintain in stock. Every data center has spare equipment lying around, either as a hedge read more...
In our last post, we outlined the key features of the 5G standard. 5G is, of course, the next generation of mobile connectivity, offering much faster data rates compared to existing 4G technology. It will also provide greater device density, lower latency, lower energy consumption, and faster handover from one base station to another. It all sounds good, but what does that really mean for read more...
5G is a complex hybrid of different radio frequency (RF) technologies connected to an ultrafast, managed network infrastructure. It will deliver different services to different devices and applications and it must have the capacity to cope with the ever-increasing number of devices being connected to networks. Devices are not exclusively mobile phones and tablet devices, they can include IoT devices (sensors, vending devices), edge computing. These networks read more...
When organizations are looking to design and implement an A/V system, they seldom consider the long-term maintenance and management of the solution. They’re concerned about how the system is going to function — and, of course, the total cost of the project. A managed services agreement might seem like an unnecessary added expense. However, maintenance and support should be part of the conversation from the read more...
What exactly do we mean by “workplace productivity”? It’s not the same thing as efficiency, which is simply the output generated versus the resources used. Productivity, on the other hands, refers to both the amount of work completed and the value of that work. Two hours spent cleaning out your email inbox isn’t as productive as two hours spent working on an important project or nurturing a read more...

What is a hybrid cloud? Ask 10 people in the IT industry and you’ll probably get 10 different answers. At the most basic level, a hybrid cloud is the intersection of an off-premises, hyperscale cloud service and a privatized IT infrastructure that you run as a cloud. The degree to which those two environments intersect can vary widely. For some organizations, it simply means managing read more...
