DATA CENTRE, NETWORK AND RACK INFORMATION
Installation in: Primus Telecom DC (Melb).
Specifically in the premium new (avail from: 24-Oct-2007) – latest “state of the art” section of this DataCentre.
* This DC is acknowledged in the industry as one of the Southern Hemisphere’s most advanced web hosting facilities.
As a Local & International Tier-1 Provider with a global network of
Data Centres, Primus has leveraged its vast experience in providing
this facility which boasts leading edge technology and reliability,
backed by a current market - upper end: 99.99% Internet Connectivity
Availability - Service Level Agreement (SLA).
High Compliance to Best Practices, Attention to Detail & Enahanced Scalability (incl):
* Hot aisle / Cold aisle - Rack configuration Plus Perforated Rack:
front and back doors, used throughout – for optimized cooling and air
flow.
With regards to the unperforated rack doors issue, it is a real concern
how often the ‘old school’ comms. equipment style racks with eg. glass
door – solid back type, are used in some dataCenters. With their very
limited airflow, a sealed oven type of effect is created when heat is
introduced from the installed equipment. In general the more high
powered and the more the rack is filled with equipment, the higher the
internal termperature and thus adverse effect to installed equipment.
Whilst this wasn’t too much of an issue for eg. older (lower powered –
cooler running) comms equipment, it is obviously very critical to the
proper performance, reliability and longevity of today’s high powered
equipment eg. servers (especially in a densely populated rack
configuration, where heat generated will be greater and scope for
cooling less – with little separation top and bottom).
With regards to the Hot aisle / Cold aisle - rack configuration, again
this is a basic principle which is often overlooked, and is based on
the following:
Because of the front(Cold)-to-back(hot) airflow of systems, the ideal
placement of the cabinets and racks have the system installed front to
front and back to back (i.e. Hot aisle / Cold aisle layout)
This layout enables cool air to flow through the aisles to the systems'
front air intake and enables heated air to flow away from the systems'
back exhaust to the air conditioner return ducts. This eliminates
direct transfer of hot exhaust air from one system into the intake air
of another system.
* Deeper depth: 1,000mm (locally manufactured, highly regarded) Hallam
Racks. Again extra space available not only allows for greater range
(eg. longer depth) of diverse equipment but also aids in air flow and
cooling, as rack enclosure is more spacious – hence, enhancing air flow.
* Enhanced Security:
- Fully compliant with Australian Communications Security Instructions 33 (ACSI33).
- Five physical security layers implemented.
- Each rack compartment is key locked (incl. sub full-rack eg. ¼ and ½ etc).
Furthermore each rack has a separately locked power outlet compartment
which is inaccessible accept via request to DC personnel. This greatly
minimizes issues eg. client accidentally switching off power – turning
off equipment in entire rack. This is particularly pertinent for
multiple client shared racks.
* Enhanced Redundancy (with provision of):
- 2 x 100Mbps Internet Ports per rack.
- 2 x Diverse Power Outlets per rack.
- True Multi-Homed Internet: connectivity to 2x (tier-1 ISP) fibre links & Primus Satellite link.
- UPS power supplied throughout, supported by 800KVA generator.
- Dual redundant air conditioning.
* 100Mbps bandwidth switch Ports (fully scalable to 1Gbps fibre).
* True 24x7x365 (Data Centre – backed) Free Remote Hands - for system restarts and power ups/downs.
