What do we mean when we say "We are the Datacenter"? Obviously we have all the redundant air conditioning, power, carriers, etc as any other center. What sets us above the rest is our quality. We don't hire button pushers, we hire only Certified Technicians, and we pay them well. We do our best to keep hardware and service prices to you as low as possible. We are always looking at new ways to lower existing costs, and prevent costs from rising in the near future.

Next comes the difference in the hardware we use. The other guys show you fancy enclosed glass racks. In reality, they tend to use open rack systems such as this one due to low cost. The problem with such a rack system is safety and security. Cables can be accidentally pulled, machines/switches bumped, unauthorized access, etc. On such racks, if a fire starts in the rack next to yours, the fire can quickly spread to yours and cause major damage. Our enclosed & secured racks will limit any fire hazard to the originating rack, while methods listed below work to smother the fire.

The links to your right show images of racks we use. We only use enclosed, secured APC racks. You will also notice another difference. We don't use huge power heavy CRAC units. This is because we directly remove heat from the highest heat producing racks to the exterior of our buildings with an ability of up to 2000 PSI per rack. This means our AC's only have to blow cold air to keep servers cool, not have to fight heat as well. Throughout the center we also have ceiling mounted motorized vents in key high heat locations that suck the hot air directly to the outside without reducing cool air flow. Another thing to note is this is also excellent fire prevention. Ever try to light a match in the wind? 2000 PSI is a lot of air flow.  It's practically impossible any kind of short to result in a fire under these conditions.

You may also be interested in knowing about our power backup generation system. *Every rack has it's own UPS that maintains power to all servers until our 150KW PROPANE generator kicks in. Why propane instead of a dirty burning diesel generator like others have? Well for one, propane is clean.  During an extended outage, the fuel delivery trucks also run on propane. We have enough propane to last about 3 weeks on complete generator power before needing a refuel. Not many centers can make that claim. We live test our generator once per month for 8 hours, not load test like others do. Within 5 seconds of a power outage, our entire system is already running on generator power. Other datacenters brag a lot, but when the time for talking is over, and the claims are put to the test, we are one of the few that pass those tests with flying colors.

*We chose to go with UPS per rack rather than battery banks. This limits UPS failure to individual racks rather than all in the case of UPS failure. We provide a minimal of a 3KVA UPS in every rack.

Isn't it time you consider a better level of datacenter?
