IRVINE, CA — October 2, 2025 — EON Reality, the global leader in Artificial Intelligence-powered augmented and virtual reality-based knowledge transfer for industry and education,  proudly announces the launch of the Data Center Workforce Training Segment in XR Library Premium, the most comprehensive skills-to-jobs platform powered by Spatial AI. As global demand for cloud services, AI workloads, and hyperscale infrastructure accelerates, this training suite equips technicians, operators, and security teams with the mission-critical skills needed to keep the digital economy running 24/7.

Why Data Centers?

Data centers are the backbone of the digital economy—supporting everything from AI to finance to national security. But they are facing:

• $9,000+ per minute outage costs due to missteps or downtime.
• A severe talent shortage, with thousands of unfilled technician and operator roles worldwide.
• Increasing threats from cyber and physical breaches, requiring robust workforce training.
• Pressure for faster commissioning and onboarding as demand outpaces workforce readiness.

Traditional manuals and classroom training cannot keep up. XR Library Premium delivers immersive, repeatable, and scenario-based training that eliminates errors, shortens onboarding, and ensures uptime.

What XR Library Premium Delivers

The Data Center Workforce Segment is structured into four groups, providing targeted immersive training across technical, security, emergency, and commissioning roles.

Group A — Technician “Smart Hands” Procedural Training (Priority 1)

These courses address the most frequent causes of outages: human error during installation and maintenance.

• Server Rack Installation & Cabling Procedures — Prevent costly mispatching and build confidence before live work.
• Power Distribution Unit (PDU) Configuration & Testing — Practice safe setup of PDUs to avoid chain failures.
• Blade Server Installation & Firmware Updates — Master critical tasks that directly impact uptime.
• Fiber Optic Cable Handling & Termination — Train on fragile fiber systems without the risk of breakage.
• Patch Panel Management & Labeling Protocols — Reinforce best practices for managing dense network racks.

Example: A new technician virtually rehearses a blade server update—a task prone to error—ensuring flawless execution when performed live.

Group B — Physical Security & Access Control (Priority 1)

Data centers demand zero tolerance for security breaches. XR allows security teams to rehearse protocols in dynamic scenarios.

• Anti-Tailgating & Secure Entry Procedures — Reinforce strict access protocols.
• Visitor Escort & Man-Trap Protocols — Train staff in managing visitor flows.
• Surveillance & Access Log Management — Practice compliance with SOC 2 and ISO 27001 standards.
• Emergency Lockdown & Threat Response — Drill responses to intrusion or terror threats.
• Security Team Communication & Coordination — Build seamless collaboration across security staff.

Example: Guards rehearse responding to a tailgating breach in XR, ensuring proper action is instinctive under real pressure.

Group C — Emergency Response Procedures (Priority 2)

Disaster resilience is critical. XR provides safe, repeatable drills for high-consequence emergencies.

• UPS Failure & Power Transfer Drills — Practice rapid failover to backup systems.
• Cooling System Malfunction & Thermal Runaway Response — Prevent overheating crises that threaten equipment.
• Fire Suppression System Activation & Response — Rehearse emergency gas suppression steps.
• Catastrophic Outage Simulation Drills — Build stress-tested precision for worst-case scenarios.
• Emergency Communications in Crisis Events — Train crisis communication and escalation protocols.

Example: Teams rehearse a cooling system failure virtually, learning to restore stability before servers overheat.

Group D — Commissioning & Onboarding (Priority 2)

With global demand surging, data centers must commission new facilities and onboard staff faster. XR provides acceleration.

• New Facility Commissioning Walkthrough (Digital Twin) — Train before site go-live.
• Technician Onboarding: Virtual Data Hall Orientation — Reduce onboarding from months to weeks.
• Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) Familiarization — Ensure consistency across operations.
• Workplace Safety & OSHA Compliance for Data Centers — Build regulatory compliance and safety awareness.
• Shift Handover & Communication Protocols — Reinforce clarity during 24/7 multi-shift operations.

Example: XR onboarding allows a technician to complete a virtual commissioning walkthrough of a facility still under construction—accelerating readiness.

How XR Library Premium Transforms Data Center Training

What Makes EON’s Approach Different

• Spatial AI Coaching: Adaptive feedback ensures zero-error procedural learning.
• Standards-Aligned: Training modules align with OSHA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, and other frameworks.
• Digital Credentialing: Every skill mastered is logged in verifiable records.
• Any Device Access: Available via VR headset, AR device, tablet, or desktop.

“Downtime is not an option in today’s digital economy. With XR Library Premium, data center operators can train their workforce to master procedures, prevent outages, and respond to emergencies with total confidence,” said Dan Lejerskar, CEO of EON Reality.
