Fire alarms will alert people in your building of a fire; however, they will do nothing to extinguish the fire. Working smoke alarms reduce your risk of dying in a fire. Fire sprinklers, on the other hand, work fast to reduce heat, flames, and smoke from a fire, reducing the risk of dying.
Most cite the statistic that fire alarms are 99.45% effective in reducing deaths from fire. This does not count the fact that buildings without working fire alarms still have a 98.87% effectiveness. These statistics are based on “chance of survival,” which is separate from “risk of fire death.”
This does not mean you should only install fire sprinklers and forgo fire alarms completely. Instead, you should install both to work in tandem to keep your building, data, equipment, and occupants completely protected.

Aside from firefighter and explosion fatalities, there has never been a multiple loss of life (3 or more people) recorded in a fully sprinklered building.
Smoke detectors do not control fires; fire sprinklers control fires and slow or stop the production of lethal smoke and toxic fire gases.
