Resilience
Plant
All our equipment is fully fail-over capable and we can suffer multiple concurrent equipment failures and still continue to function unhindered.
Fire Protection and Suppression
Our dual stage N+1 system incorporates detection and suppression which uses an argon/nitrogen mix that is fast and effective and does not require clean up. Power does not need to be interrupted so equipment within the data centre remains completely unaffected.
The data halls and plant rooms are fitted with VESDA (very early smoke detection apparatus) as a first stage alarm. An addressable system is also installed to data halls and plant rooms on a two stage release strategy. This provides a multi layer detection and firing strategy. In the case of fire plant rooms are fitted with a high pressure water mist system and data halls & HV rooms will utilise an inert gas with zero ODP & GWP. All these systems are monitored 24 x 365 and linked to our sophisticated central building management system.

Next Generation Data employs a Facilities Management Team which is committed to operational excellence and best practice processes to ensure that the operation and on-going management of the mission-critical environment of the data centre has optimum resilience.
