To ensure an unparalleled level of stability and facility integrity, the Cincinnati data center is undergoing a formal commissioning process prior to customer installations. Leveraging an industry leading facilities engineering and IT consulting firm, Peak 10’s data center commissioning is a structured process which establishes the capability and reliability of mission critical infrastructure. The process includes multiple and repeatable test cycles using equipment that simulates how the data center operates at various load levels and failover conditions.
