Computer maintenance technologies are required to enable the smooth work 
ing condition of our computers and servers. We all work with computers one way or the other, either ourselves or by using computer services like the internet which is a collection of computers/servers around the world.
Companies nowadays tend to have servers who are so crucial that they have to be online at all times, there is no downtime allowed, so by keeping maintaining those servers at all times, supervising them, and use computer maintenance technologies and certain condition to ensure that those servers never go down.
Companies keep IT (information technology) professionals to keep maintaining those vital servers to prevent them to ever go down and become unreachable. Those maintenance techniques include proper installations, configurations, repair skills, LAN & WAN understanding, data communication, telecommunications, and computer integration.
There are schools/colleges that teach computer maintenance technology to students who wish to become computer-integration engineers and maintain those vital servers by using their wide knowledge in computer infrastructure and integration.
Let’s go over some of the basic computer maintenance technologies:
- Performance maintenance of computers and servers.
- This includes installation, configuration, optimization, upgrades, identifying tools, diagnostic procedures, troubleshooting techniques, preventive maintenance actions
- Managing operating systems.
- This includes an understanding of client/server environment, keep the network integration of such environment intact, supervised at all times, prevent harmful events causing the system to become unstable, recovery precautions, abilities to resolve and troubleshoot problems.
- Taking security measures.
- This includes the understanding of security, the harmful environments out there, the amount of allowed exposure, how to block attacks, how to provide inner and outer protection against attackers and harmful programs, identifying intrusions, perform and implement preventive measures.
- Network monitoring systems.
- There are open-source monitoring systems and there are Microsoft windows monitoring systems that can track changes in your network capabilities, and check your server’s availability making sure you get notified in case your servers are unreachable.

- I gave some basics, just to understand what computer maintenance technologies relate to. I will have more details on the techniques on other posts, which will be covered in more detail on how to do those theoretical Ideas to use the computer maintenance technologies while keeping your organization safe from harm and damages.
