Rack and Stack in Perth

All five of Western Australia's universities are based in Perth. The Australia-Singapore Cable lands at the Shenton Park cable landing station in Perth, according to Submarine Networks. A Business News report on the Indigo cable system says it positions Perth as a key data and cloud hub for all of Australia. NEXTDC P2 stands on Lord Street in Perth. For a buyer, the practical question is who puts new hardware into the rack once it arrives. Reboot Monkey is a third-party datacenter services operator. It does not own or run the building. It sells rack space, IP transit, leased IP addresses, network, data-centre hardware and the services that deliver, install and support them, inside data centres that other companies own and run. In Perth, rack and stack is the installation step: equipment is mounted in the rack, cabled, labelled and checked at power-on so that your own team can pick it up from there. Reboot Monkey does not take over the building's electrical or cooling work.

Our Rack and Stack Services

Rack and stack is defined as installing, mounting and cabling new hardware. In Perth the work is delivered by Reboot Monkey engineers in the customer's rack, and the scope is stated up front so that procurement can compare it with an internal plan.

  • Mounting new servers, switches and other equipment in the rack
  • Cabling, including installing and patching the cabling in the customer's rack
  • Labelling of cables and equipment
  • Power-on checks once the hardware is cabled
  • Fibre inspection scope and cleaning kit available on request
  • Network for the rack: Reboot Monkey orders the cross connects and carrier circuits from the facility operator and the carriers present in the facility
  • Quotes on request, depending on the customer and the size of the job

Why Reboot Monkey

A request starts with the customer's instruction: what hardware is arriving, which rack it goes into and how it should be cabled. Reboot Monkey scopes the job, quotes it on request, and schedules an engineer to attend the customer's site. On the day, the engineer mounts the equipment, runs and patches the cabling, labels it and performs the power-on checks. If the install also needs connectivity, Reboot Monkey can order the cross connects and carrier circuits from the facility operator and the carriers present, and the engineer then patches them in the rack. A fibre inspection scope and cleaning kit are available on request when a link needs to be checked before it is brought into use. A second, briefed Reboot Monkey engineer is named as backup for every customer site, so a missed attendance does not leave an install unfinished. When the install is complete, the customer receives the labelled, cabled and powered-on equipment ready for its own configuration. For work that needs diagnostic judgement and configuration knowledge, the related smart hands service covers it, and server migration covers moving equipment between racks, rooms or facilities.

How Reboot Monkey Works

These terms apply in every facility in Perth where Reboot Monkey engineers work.

  • Response: 1-hour, around-the-clock incident response SLA, and a 15 minute premium response available where technicians are stationed on-site, as a paid add-on. The incident response SLA covers incidents and unplanned requests; on-site, dispatch and resolution times, priority tiers, and planned or scheduled work are agreed per site in the service agreement.
  • Monitoring: 24/7 NOC monitoring across all facilities, covering IPMI, iDRAC, SNMP, temperature, power, network signals.
  • Hardware: vendor-neutral technicians for Dell, HP, Cisco, Juniper and Arista equipment.
  • Independence: independent from facility operators (not Equinix SmartHands, not NTT staff).
  • One agreement: single provider across cities, so a customer in several cities needs only one agreement.
  • Service levels and terms: https://www.rebootmonkey.com/en/solutions/sla
  • Published case study: a major ICT provider engaged Reboot Monkey for three full infrastructure rollouts in Lahore, Karachi and Islamabad, with the hardware installed the same day at every site.

Where a deployment spans more than one Australian site, the same installation scope applies in each city, and a multi-site rollout can be planned as one piece of work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does rack and stack cover in Perth?

Rack and stack in Perth covers installing, mounting and cabling new hardware in the customer's rack. A fibre inspection scope and cleaning kit are available on request, and quotes are given on request.

Do you work in every datacenter in Perth?

Reboot Monkey engineers work in any facility in Perth where the customer has equipment and access, under the operator's own access and safety rules. The customer adds the engineers to the facility's access list before the first visit.

How fast can Reboot Monkey respond in Perth?

Incidents and unplanned requests are handled under a 1-hour, around-the-clock incident response SLA.

How is Reboot Monkey different from the facility operator's own staff?

Facility operators' own technicians work for the building. Reboot Monkey engineers work for the customer: they are independent from facility operators (not Equinix SmartHands, not NTT staff), follow the customer's instructions, and the same team can cover several buildings in the city under one agreement.
