Using technology provided by American Power Conversion as an intermediate solution to our
natural gas power generator, power for our Network Operations Center is a sure thing.
Underground power grids.
Our Network Operations Center is housed in a building
situated on dual-power grids. If one grid fails, the power switches to the other available
power grid. Downtown Kansas City has all of their power underground, which makes the
likelihood of a power failure due to ice, wind, and other natural causes very, very rare.
Power failure? No problem!
Site0 invests in a Matrix 5000 system for
every 5 Sun servers as an intermediate backup solution in the event of a power failure.
Such a solution will provide up to 2 hours of power before resources are depleted. Our
network operations, routers, switches, and other essential devices are fed off of separate
APC battery backup solutions.
Generating naturally...
Our $30,000 investment into a natural gas power
generator is just another sign of our commitment to quality of service. This generator is
the third line of defense in the event of power failure. With natural gas, this solution
will continue to not only power our Network Operations Center, but our entire facility. To
date, we have never had to use our generator. Monthly test runs occur to ensure the
generator is in working order.
