Edge Data Center Upgrade Strategy for a Healthcare Facility
Data Center Strategy
Data Center Design and Engineering
Data Center Construction and Commissioning
Project Details
- Consolidate IT from two (2) data centers into the a new one &reclaim ~1kSF of old data center space
- Renovate the original space to new standards to double the available IT white space
- Proposed using fuel cells to mitigate $15M+ CAPEX to upgrade utility service for stand-alone data center, versus INTUVA to provide an anchor-tenant colocation model for a new data center
Situation
Increased risk of downtime to operations because of higher failure rates
Have two (2) aging edge data centers, some colocation & cloud
On premises infrastructure needs have been, shrinking
Increased operational costs due to increased scheduled and unscheduled maintenance
Wasted and unused IT space
Resolution
Updated the strategic plan for data center operations
New, reliable, resilient, primary edge to adapt to a less-predictable future
Challenge
What is the Right Hybrid Data Center Strategy for this Edge Data Center?
A healthcare provider in the Northeastern US approached INTUVA to upgrade their existing Edge Data Center and for an IDF Design/Build renovation. They needed a viable long-term data center plan to better adapt their IT so they would be better prepared for an unpredictable future.
