Careers for Veterans in the Data Center Industry

A Data Center is typically a building, a dedicated space within a building, or a group of buildings used to house computer systems and associated components, such as telecommunications and storage systems. Data centers centralize an organization’s IT operations and equipment, as well as where it stores, manages, and disseminates its data. They house a network’s most critical systems and are vital to the continuity of daily operations. 

The Data Center industry presents an exciting and challenging opportunity for the right candidate.
