Abstract: An electric driven hydraulic fracking system is disclosed. A pump configuration includes the single VFD, the single shaft electric motor, and the single hydraulic pump mounted on the single pump trailer. A controller associated with the single VFD and is mounted on the single pump trailer. The controller monitors operation parameters associated with an operation of the electric driven hydraulic fracking system as each component of the electric driven hydraulic fracking system operates to determine whether the operation parameters deviate beyond a corresponding operation parameter threshold. Each of the operation parameters provides an indicator as to an operation status of a corresponding component of the electric driven hydraulic fracking system. The controller initiates corrected actions when each operation parameter deviates beyond the corresponding operation threshold.

Abstract: A Recovery Maturity Index 1 (RMM) is used to determine whether a particular Information Technology (IT) production environment is relatively mature enough to successfully execute the disaster recovery (DR). The RMI provides a quantitative analysis in terms of a set of categories for elements that characterize the environment and multiple elements for each category. At least some of the elements depend upon the extent to which automation components have been leveraged for disaster recovery. A summation of the scoring elements, which may be a weighted summation, results in an overall quantitative metric. The metric can used to determine whether or not disaster recovery can be expected to be successful.
