(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Data center provider Data Centers Canada (www.datacenterscanada.com) has broken ground on the phase three expansion of its Toronto North data center facility, which will provide capacity for an additional 100 cabinets, predominately configured in private cage and suite environments.
According to its Wednesday announcement, Data Centers Canada, which operates, develops and manages Canadian real estate for the purpose of providing turn-key data center solutions, the carrier-neutral Toronto North facility provides a state of the art data center environment with colocation and disaster recovery solutions for enterprises.
Toronto North features 2N redundancy, a managed “Meet Me Room,” VESDA & Inergen Systems, the option of rooftop tower colocation, and three-layer security including biometric recognition, as well as 151 Front Street backhaul that provides access to dozens of leading carriers and downtown financial networks.
Data Centers Canada originally announced the expansion in October 2009.
Just months later, in February 2010, it began offering the next-generation Internet protocol, IPv6, at its Toronto data centers. IPv6 provides many benefits over the current IPv4 standard — mainly that its larger address space addresses the impending need for additional IP space as IPv4 spots near worldwide depletion. As well, the IPv6 architecture offers simplified network management, end to end connective integrity, unconstrained address abundance, integrated interoperability and mobility, and improved security.
Data Centers Canada offers customers multiple IP schema options including IPv4, IPv6 or a dual configuration solutions at no additional cost.
