Where is PSPINC Backup Data Center

When we had problem with our primary data center at Seattle Fisher Plaza back in July 4, 2009. We experienced the worst outage in our service history. Our service was out for 30 hours. When everything was recovered but still running with backup generators, we started looking for a backup data center where we can run everything if and when our data center goes down.

We looked for many places but everything we looked at effectively double our cost. We have decided to build out our headquarter building to house 10 racks, additional power supplies, additional A/C units and generators. We have added additional fiber optic to connect between HQ and our primary data center.

Our data center at HQ is one of the most efficient data center facilities with almost 90% of the time; it is cooled with outside air. Plus, Puget Sound Energy supplies our HQ building with alternate energy. Backup generators are on of the most efficient and quietest generators in the market. Most people visiting PSPINC do not realize the generator running when they are running.

Creating the backup data center at HQ was not the cheapest option but it created the most flexibility and security for our customers.
