Anchor’s New Colocation Fit Out – Stage Two
Published February 11th, 2009 by Barney DesmondOur new colocation space will be ready to go very soon! In the last couple of days we’ve had the new racks installed and the basic network infrastructure connected. The power rails in each rack will be powered up on Friday, and the network hardware will be installed. We expect to have live equipment in there in less than a week.
This will mostly be a photo post, they speak for themselves. To keep things interesting we’ve got photos of some of the high-level building infrastructure. This is the heavy-duty, redundancy-everywhere stuff that keeps you up and running, guaranteed. If you’re interested, follow the link on each photo; there’s a little more detail on what you’re looking at.
You can see most of the new floorspace and racks in the photos there. Once it’s online, we’ll have doubled our entire operating capacity. I’d say we’re growing rather nicely.
