Los
Angeles Medical Network Selects T5@LA for Seismic Safety and Power
Resilience to Ensure Continuous Uptime for Patient-critical Data
Systems.
Los
Angeles, CA, USA -- T5 Data Centers, innovators in providing
secure, customizable, hyperscale computing environments for
enterprise companies, today announced that a large regional hospital
has signed as the newest tenant for its T5@LA data center. The
hospital plans to migrate all data operations into T5@LA to take
advantage of the purpose-built data center, seismic-hardened
infrastructure, and the skilled on-site support of the T5 Facilities
Management team.
Throughout
the stringent selection process, several requirements needed to be
met and verified by the new hospital tenant. At the top of the list,
T5@LA had to be compliant with the California Seismic Safety Act,
which requires all hospitals remain operational in the event of an
earthquake. The deadline for compliance is January 1, 2020.
Other
T5@LA attributes supporting the hospital tenant's decision are the
dedicated on-site substation allowing for greater electrical
resiliency, T5's world class Facilities Management & Operations
as verified by the Uptime Institute, and robust security to ensure
HIPAA compliance. Through the numerous connectivity carriers, various
network technologies, and fiber density available within T5@LA, the
hospital tenant was able to establish a multi-faceted network
strategy. This included Metro Dark Fiber rings, direct Internet
access, and cloud direct-connect capabilities.
"Over
the last decade we have built our reputation by delivering
uninterrupted data center services, which is essential for
patient-critical compute systems," said Aaron Wangenheim, Chief
Operating Officer of T5 Data Centers. "We are seeing more
hospitals looking to outsource data center operations to comply with
the Seismic Safety Act. T5 remains confident that other discerning
CIOs and data center operations managers will come to T5 seeking
highly reliable, versatile, purpose-built data center services."
