A data center is a facility for using computer systems and associated components, such as telecommunications and storage systems on a large scale for the services like storage server capabilities to be offered for various clients across the globe for a charge. The main purpose of a data center is running the applications that handle the core business and operational data of the organization like the ERP or CRM systems. A data center may be used as just operations architecture or it may provide other services as well. Data centers are also used for off-site backups of organization's data. The following features compose of a typical data center.
Network
Data Center is connected to the Internet with highly redundant network through multiple Gigabit backbones having multiple peering with other networks.
Hardware Guarantee
Servers deployed at the Data Center includes hardware replacement guarantee. In case of any hardware failure, the hardware is immediately replaced.
Security
Data Center is located inside its own secure compound, with 2.4 and 3 meter fencing and electric gate entry equipped & monitored round the clock with closed circuit cameras. Strict access controls are implemented including surveillance cameras, fingerprint as well as Keycard system in order to manage entries.
Electrical Capacity
Equal Power Distribution (60 watts per sq. ft. - 80 watts per sq. ft.) is provided in the entire Data Center facility. Each cabinet 4' x 6‘gets 110 volt, 20 amp circuits. The main power sums up to 480 volt, 3 phase. Power supplies are now also activated in multiple DC.
Power
In the unlikely event of a power outage from local power grid, all data center's power systems are designed to run uninterrupted with the help of two 2000KW auto-switched power generators and centralized UPS systems. Generators are regularly tested and can be used in emergency event of extended utility power outages.
Precision Environment
The data center environment has a computerized fully master-planned Rise system, HVAC pipe system and Electrical system and monitored. HVAC (Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning) systems are N+1 redundant, ensuring that a duplicate system can immediately come online in the event of an HVAC system failure.
Fire Protection System
Wet Risers are set in at every square position of the center. FM-200 system is installed. The advanced fire protection system prevents fires from spreading in the unlikely event one should occur.
