Network Operations Center - Definition

A Network Operations Center is the location from which control is exercised over a communications network, usually either telephony or internet, though sometimes also that of a public utility (see also SCADA). It is sometimes, though not always, also the location containing many or all of the primary servers and other equipment that runs an internet service provider. The Network Operations Center is commonly referred to as the NOC, usually pronounced like "knock". The NOC is often also where the technicians that maintain the servers, develop new software, and troubleshoot outages are located.
