Frequently asked questions

What is a data center?
A data center is a specialized facility that houses computer systems, servers, storage, and networking equipment in a controlled environment optimized for performance and reliability. Data centers provide the necessary power, cooling, physical security, and connectivity infrastructure to keep digital operations running 24x7x365. Modern data centers range from small server rooms to massive hyperscale facilities spanning hundreds of thousands of square feet.
What's the difference between hyperscale and retail colocation?
Retail colocation involves smaller deployments, such as renting individual racks or cages in a shared facility, while hyperscale data centers involve larger deployments, including the leasing of entire data halls and buildings with megawatts of custom infrastructure. Retail colocation is like renting an apartment; hyperscale is like building or leasing a custom warehouse.
What makes a data center AI-ready?
AI-ready data centers are specifically designed to handle the intensive computational requirements of artificial intelligence and machine learning workloads. Key features include high-density power infrastructure capable of supporting power-hungry GPU clusters and AI processors, advanced cooling systems that utilize liquid cooling to manage the significant heat generated by AI hardware, ultra-low latency network connectivity for real-time AI applications, and a flexible infrastructure that can quickly scale to accommodate rapidly evolving AI technologies. AI-ready facilities also maintain the same stringent security and compliance standards required for sensitive AI model training and deployment.
Why should companies leverage a data center instead of staying on-premises?
Using a professional data center offers numerous advantages over on-premises deployments, including: enhanced physical security with 24x7 monitoring; reliable power infrastructure with backup systems; professional cooling systems optimized for IT equipment; access to multiple network carriers for redundant connectivity; compliance with industry standards and regulations; scalability to grow as business needs change; and reduced capital expenditure by leveraging shared infrastructure rather than building your own facility.
What is a hyperscale data center?
Hyperscale data centers are massive facilities designed to efficiently support extensive cloud computing and big data storage needs. These facilities span between 100,000 to over 1,000,000 square feet and consume 20 to 150+ megawatts of power. They house between 100,000 to 500,000+ servers while maximizing space efficiency through high-density configurations, with individual racks drawing 10-150 kW or more of power. Hyperscale data centers are built to accommodate the massive infrastructure requirements of major cloud providers, internet companies, and large enterprises that need to deploy thousands of servers at scale with maximum efficiency and reliability.
How should I choose a data center?
When selecting a data center provider, consider: geographic location and proximity to your business operations; physical security measures and compliance certifications; power capacity, redundancy, and reliability (including backup systems); cooling infrastructure and efficiency; available connectivity options and carrier diversity; scalability to accommodate future growth; sustainability practices and renewable energy usage; technical support availability and expertise; and the provider's financial stability and track record of reliability.
