Network operations center (NOC)

A Network Operations Center (NOC) is a centralized location where IT professionals monitor, manage, and maintain a company’s network and technology systems. It acts like a command center for ensuring that all network operations run smoothly, detecting and resolving issues, and minimizing downtime. NOCs are essential for businesses that rely on technology, as they help ensure reliable communication and data flow. Staff in a NOC use various tools and technologies to oversee network performance, respond to incidents, and ensure the overall health of the IT infrastructure, contributing to efficiency and stability in operations.
