Many times I have encountered Prestik, Scotch tape and barbed wire
data centres. The reason that they are called this is because it seems
these are the only tools the techies have to keep things up and running.
And you know it is one, because you can visually recognize the dirt,
spaghetti and graffiti around the place. The management denies any
request for anything else but then still expects a quality service. The
reason seems to be to satisfy budget constraints and operational service
delivery in the data centre seems to be low on the list of priorities.
The result is obvious, major incidents that will result in large
productivity and even financial damage to the companies involved.
