OVERVIEW

About this data centre

Brightsolid Tier III-designed colocation in Dundee

Brightsolid Dundee is one of Brightsolid's two purpose-built colocation data centres in Scotland, both described by Brightsolid as Tier III designed. Brightsolid's specification lists 440 m² at Dundee, with Data Hall One at 500 kW IT load and Data Hall Two at 240 kW IT load, and offers full racks (47U, 2 kW) and half racks (23U, 1.25 kW). Brightsolid quotes a 100% uptime SLA, with staff on site 24x7x365.

Primary power comes from the National Grid, backed by two generators per data hall that Brightsolid says can start within one minute with no runtime limitation, plus UPS protection. Each rack has 24 IEC-C13 outlets on each of its A and B feeds, and power to each rack is monitored. Cooling is N+1, designed to ASHRAE environmental standards, using forced-air cooling with cold aisle containment.

Brightsolid lists resident carriers at Dundee: SSE, Vodafone, BT, Converged, Commsworld and Virgin Media Business. Meet-me racks are available for connections between customer and carrier networks. Security includes 24x7x365 manned security, internal and external CCTV, multi-factor identification, an air-locked main entry and door-to-rack access controls. Brightsolid lists ISO 27001, ISO 22301 and ISO 9001.
