Providing clients with access to over 36 carriers and providers, Digital Realty’s Phoenix data center is located at 120 E Van Buren Street, Phoenix AZ 85044.
The Digital Realty PHX1 data center consists of 60,000 square feet of leased floor space. The building is located outside the 100 year flood plain, and is certified as seismic level zone 1. The facility has a multi-layered security structure, including 24 hour a day, seven days a week on site staff as well as continuous video surveillance. The data center is SOC 2 and SOC 3 compliant and on-site staff monitor the power, cooling and network connectivity at all times. In addition to its access to cages and cabinets, clients also have access to roof rights and access to parking if needed.
In order to maintain data center functionality, Digital Realty also deploys redundant power, cooling and network systems that ensure maximum up-time. The local utility provides up to 2500 total kilowatts of power (2.5 Megawatts) and the UPS systems have a capacity of 1150 kilowatts and are arranged in a 2N configuration. This set up allows for up to 230 watts of power to be delivered per square foot. On site generators are also configured in an N+1 arrangement, and can deliver up to 8,200 kilowatts of power in the event of a utility power failure. Finally, the cooling systems are arranged in an N+1 set up. Digital Realty’s redundant set ups allow them to provide clients with 100% up-time service level agreements.
