Switch Datacenter Group Opens High Density State-of-the-art Network Neutral Datacenter in Amsterdam South East
AMSTERDAM, August 30, 2011/PRNewswire/ --
"The answer to the growing demand for affordable high quality Carbon &
Network Neutral Datacenter capacity in Amsterdam."
"Switch Datacenters Amsterdam delivers 700 m2 of high end datacenter
space to its first anchor client Internet Unie."
After 2 years of construction Switch Datacenter Group today finalized
the first phase of its innovative hyper modern purpose-built datacenter in
Amsterdam.
With space and power for more than 1.500 racks and 60.000 servers Switch
Datacenter Amsterdam provides a direct answer to the growing demand for high
quality Carrier Neutral datacenter capacity in Amsterdam. The 8.320 m2
facility is equipped with an ultra-efficient cooling infrastructure, which
guarantees PUE levels between 1,2 and 1,3. "This lower power consumption
provides a direct price advantage to customers of 25% to 30% in average
compared to most datacenters in Europe," says Gregor Snip, Founder and
Commercial Director of Switch Datacenter Group.
The highly secured facility is purpose built for providing sufficient
and easy expandable datacenter space to Internet Service Providers, Multi
Media companies and large scale web environments. This robust facility is
equipped with highest standards of the current datacenter industry.
Another advantage from Switch Datacenter is that it is located in
Amsterdam South East, which has one on the highest densities of
International Carrier Fiber Backbones in the world. At present Switch
Datacenter is already connected to 460 fibers from 40 different Carrier
Networks to which customers can connect directly against the best
conditions.
Gregor Snip: "Primary partner of Switch for the development of its
datacenters is Compertius -Total Datacenter Solutions-. Besides up to date
and relevant knowledge and engineering capabilities, Compertius has more
than 10 years experience in 24x7 Operations Management of Datacenters. This
experience brings an enormous advantage compared to traditional and mainly
technical oriented market-players. Based on this combination of technical
resources, datacenter-knowledge and Operations Management we are able to
introduce a new generation datacenters that will bring an unrivalled
combination of capacity, energy performance and customer friendliness to the
market."
