How does GN Data Center work?
GN Data Center is not revolutionizing the data center. We’re evolving it. Using well-established industry practices, our data center is designed for the highest performance at the lowest cost. We accomplish this by increasing density and decreasing complexity. The main distinction between a conventional data center and the GN data center is that we bring cooling water to the cabinet itself, using cabinets with heat exchangers built in. This eliminates the raised floor and air-handling system—with its expense and complexity—from the data center.

Will I save money by using GN Data Center?
Yes, for several reasons. You’ll be able to quadruple the amount of servers you place in a cabinet for considerably less than renting four conventional data center cabinets. You pay only for the electricity, bandwidth and cabinet rental. Multiple telecom carriers mean lower cost access to bandwidth, and we have negotiated lower rates for power from established electrical utilities—and we pass those savings on to you.

Does your data center have high availability?
Yes. Our Tier III data center, with fully redundant cooling and power, utilizes state-of-the-art, continuous power systems. Multiple fiber entry points and multiple carriers ensure maximum uptime.

Are my data and equipment secure?
Yes. Our data center is in a windowless, all-concrete and masonry building with highly restricted access. Each cabinet is locked and unlabeled, so there is no indication of its owner or contents.

I’ve heard that liquid cooling is risky because my equipment can get wet. Is this true?
The probability of water coming into contact with equipment is exceedingly low. The air-to-water heat exchanger is located in the bottom of the cabinet, and only clean dry air is circulated throughout the equipment. Leaks and condensation are never near the equipment. The cabinets themselves are also tightly sealed so that a water leak from the outside is highly unlikely to get equipment wet inside. The cabinets are also raised off the ground so that in the very unlikely event of a flood, your equipment is protected. In addition, power is fed from above; thus, a strict separation of electrical and cooling systems is maintained.
