Los
Angeles, CA, USA -- T5 Data Centers™
(http://www.t5datacenters.com),
innovators in providing state-of-the-art, customizable and highly
reliable computing support environments, has signed the County of Los
Angeles as the newest tenant for the company's T5@LA customizable
data center. The County will be migrating its data center operations
from its own facility to T5@LA to take advantage of the
infrastructure support and cost savings offered by T5's wholesale
data center, as well as the potential for future expansion.
The
LA County Board of Supervisors directed an assessment of options to
replace the existing outdated data center with either a build, buy,
or lease solution. After performing a cost analysis, the County
determined that leasing a wholesale data center facility would offer
greater flexibility and prove more cost effective than upgrading its
current data center operation. After an extensive search, Los Angeles
County selected T5@LA because of its secure environment, redundant
power systems, and seismic reinforcement, as well as its strategic
location. The T5@LA facility also fulfilled the County's immediate
operational needs, providing a ready-to-occupy location customizable
to their needs with energy and water efficient environment control
systems.
"Winning
the County of Los Angeles as a customer validates T5's market
advantage - our wholesale data centers are more robust and
cost-effective than maintaining your own data center facilities,"
said Aaron Wangenheim, Chief Operating Officer for T5 Data Centers.
"This latest contract also demonstrates that our T5@LA facility
is in the right location with the right capabilities for customers
throughout the Los Angeles market who need mission-critical computing
support."
Like
all T5 wholesale data centers, T5@LA offers a fully customizable
facility that gives customers total control over MEP technology and
design. Each data suite is completely autonomous, separated by
slab-to-deck, fire-rated walls for secure operations. The T5@LA data
center also meets HIPAA, HITECH, and PCI regulations and provides a
highly secure operating environment.
