The acquisition of Data393 by Managed Data Holdings last December provided Data393 with the resources to accelerate this expansion and meet market demand.

The expansion incorporated high density power and cooling, parallel redundant generator capacity, static-dissipating raised flooring and a combination of cabinet and cage colocation space.
 
"The demand for colocation and managed hosting continues to grow as our current and potential customers seek power and cooling to support high density blade technology and high density hosting applications," says Brett Jones, GM of Data393. "We also developed more growth space as businesses are increasingly consolidating computing infrastructure from their offices to our data center. Our investment of increased power and cooling meets those needs while delivering greater options for tailored colocation bundled with hands-on managed services required in today?s online world."

The data center operator has engineered higher raised flooring and ceiling heights and employed next-generation technology in cooling.

Its colocation suite features multi-faceted upgrades, including a string of six paralleled Generac 600kw generators with N+1 redundancy and increased capacity of three megawatts of power. These features ensure an around the clock, redundant power supply capable of supplying up to 200 watts of power per square foot. 
 
In May, data center owner and operator Digital Realty Trust released the findings of a survey it commissioned that showed the majority of senior decision makers at US corporations intend to expand their data center facilities in the coming year.
