Virpus Networks houses its customers in a world class data center
located in Downtown Kansas City, within Oak Tower.
Power Redundancy.
Oak
Tower has an incredible reputation in power reliability. In fact, due
to its location, the Kansas City Power and Light company has the
building situated on three power grids.The data center itself has power
coming from Kansas City Power and Light as primary, with all nodes
feeding off the UPS (uninterruptible supplies system), which can handle
its current load for 15 minutes to allow time for the generator to
start. There is an on-site stand-by generator which has
fuel capacity at any time to run the data center for 48 hours without
refueling.
Security.
Security
is something that you will notice the moment you enter our floor. In
every hall and in every room of the facility, you will notice security
cameras and a biometric hand scanner on each and every door (except for
the bathroom).
Cooling.
Each
room is maintained at 70 degrees at all times, to ensure an optimal
environment for our servers and our customers servers. The building is
also powered by chilled water cooling for efficient eco-friendly
cooling of the facility.
