Data Acquision Services

Many electronic devices maintain detailed logs, audit tables, and error tables that contain information about their condition or performance. It is likely your company has or supports such devices such as telecommunications equipment, pay telephones, copy machines, building automation systems, irrigation control systems, elevators, secure access systems, site monitoring systems, etc. Or perhaps processes or services on your network maintain logs for remote network access, login/logout history, automated backup jobs, firewall alarms, WAN status, or similar information. Although it is useful and informative, most of this data is ignored largely due to it's inconvenient location. If it were waiting in your in-box or in one directory on your network, you might check it, but the time or payroll required to dial-in, map, telnet, or FTP to each device is difficult to justify. Until, of course, a problem occurs that could have been avoided had the information been accessable several hours or days earlier. Has a fan failed? Is there unusually high or low usage on one or more devices?

Data Acquistion Services from Remote Data Access eliminate the need for you or your staff to spend the time gathering this data. If you have any device capable to remote access (through dial-up or network), we can gather the information that interests you and have it waiting in your in-box before you wake up. Used with our Data Analysis Services, this information can be processed for important information without the need for you to study this data.
