I'm not entirely sure what you're asking Microsoft Teams to be here. It almost sounds like you're after an all-in-one toolbox to run a data center, when Microsoft Teams is a collaboration platform.
1. Are you asking MS Teams to monitor your data center for you? How'd you propose it does that as a hosted platform that is for communications?
2. Again, Teams is a collaboration platform, not a remote management platform. That is not to say you cannot use some of the features like desktop sharing to help do management and support, that's not its primary goal.
3. Rather vague statement. What collaboration tools would be a benefit in Microsoft Teams that don't exist, and would benefit data center management?
4. Microsoft Teams has lots of security and compliance functionality, and as it is on top of Office365/Sharepoint/Entra ID, it also has all the auditing and compliance of those platforms as well. Want to know who accessed a file? Done! Want to restrict what data cane be shared outside of Teams? Done. Lots of other features as well. What are you looking for specifically? Maybe it's there, you just haven't found it.
There are a lot of add-ons and plugins that may extend and enhance the functionality that may get you most of what you need.
