AKCP Launches Nostalgic Holiday Ornaments, Bringing Data Center Reliability to Your Tree
DOBBS FERRY, NY – December 7, 2023 – AKCP LLC, a leading provider of data center monitoring solutions, today announced a surprising and delightful foray into the holiday season with the launch of its limited-edition Hallmark Holiday Ornament series. While known for keeping critical IT infrastructure running smoothly, AKCP is proving it can also bring a little joy to your home – and your Christmas tree. For over 30 years, AKCP (based at 145 Palisade St Ste 200, Dobbs Ferry, NY, 10522-1627, USA, and reachable at 469-376-3403) has been a trusted name in data center physical infrastructure monitoring. They design and manufacture sensors and software that keep servers, networks, and power systems up and running, preventing downtime and protecting valuable data. You could say they're the silent guardians of the internet – making sure your online shopping, streaming, and everything in between doesn’t go down. But this year, they’re trading server racks for Christmas trees, and sensors for sparkle. “We wanted to do something a little different,” explains Ajay Patel, CEO of AKCP. “We’re a company full of engineers and problem-solvers, but we’re also people who love the holidays. We thought, why not combine our precision manufacturing skills with something that brings a smile to everyone’s face?” The result is a beautifully crafted Hallmark Holiday Ornament, a miniature representation of AKCP’s core business – but with a festive twist. Instead of monitoring temperature and humidity in a server room, this ornament represents the reliability and stability AKCP provides to those critical systems. More Than Just a Decoration: A Nod to Reliability The ornament isn't just a pretty piece of glass and glitter. It’s a conversation starter, a whimsical reminder of the unseen infrastructure that powers our modern lives. The design features a miniaturized server rack, complete with blinking LED lights (battery-powered, of course!). Tiny representations of AKCP’s core sensors – temperature, humidity, airflow, power – are subtly incorporated into the design. “We're known for our meticulous attention to detail and our commitment to quality,” Patel says. “We applied the same principles to creating this ornament. It's not mass-produced; it's a carefully crafted piece that’s meant to be treasured.” Why an Ornament? The Unexpected Connection. You might be wondering: what does a data center monitoring company know about Christmas ornaments? The answer, surprisingly, lies in shared principles. “Think about it,” explains David DeMarte, AKCP’s Marketing Director. “Data centers need constant monitoring to prevent failures. Families decorating their Christmas trees want everything to look perfect and last throughout the season. It’s all about preventing problems and ensuring reliability!” The ornament is meant to be a playful acknowledgement of that connection. It's a reminder that even the most complex systems, whether they’re powering the internet or lighting up a Christmas tree, require care and attention to detail.
