April 3, 2007 — (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Data center operator Baltimore Technology Park (baltimoretechnologypark.com) announced on Tuesday some of the key milestones of its first 12 months in business, and announced a further build-out of its space.
The past year has seen BTP’s data center expand its customer base to include various businesses, including streaming audio and video providers, and training software developers. Other key developments include two build-outs of existing space to accommodate more customers.
The second project, currently underway, has been expanded from 11,000 square feet to 15,000 to meet strong market demand, resulting in space for 250 more server cabinets as well as cages and suites. An extra one million dollars has been added to the construction budget for a total investment of $4 million, which will be used towards increasing BTP’s capacity, expanding its bandwidth and security and doubling its power supply.
BTP has also created a Systems Integrator Advisory Board and has been accepted into the Association of Contingency Planners Central Maryland Chapter, an international organization for business continuity professionals. Last November, Jim Weller, a 20-year veteran of the data infrastructure and data center industry, was named company president.
“It is rewarding to see a true need in the Baltimore-area market and to successfully actuate a plan to meet demand,” says Weller. “We will continue to respond to the regional shortage of affordable and scalable space at data centers that have the modern power design necessary to cool, power and protect the servers used by most businesses.”
