Datacenter & Network

Infrastructure

We offer two high-performance sites backed by many years of design and operational experience. The design criteria for the EveryWare data center infrastructure are based, on the one hand, on our many years of operational experience and, on the other hand, on the continuously increasing demands of our customers, standardization bodies (e.g., TÜV), and FINMA’s requirements for banking outsourcing (RS 2018/3).

Secure Infrastructure

  • Two data center locations in the greater Zurich area

  • Over 3,000 m² of total floor space, divided into various customer zones

  • Tier 3 infrastructure

  • Private rooms with separate fire protection, climate control, and power systems

  • Redundant synchronous mirroring possible

  • Multiple fire detection systems, including early-warning fire detection (laser)

  • Gas-based fire suppression (Inergen)

  • Highest level of burglary protection; access via a single-person access control system (biometric) or material airlock

  • 24/7 video and laser monitoring and security patrols

  • 24/7 monitoring by the EveryWare Operations Center

Power Supply Redundancy

The EveryWare data centers are divided into separate customer zones. This allows for high power capacities to be allocated to each customer zone without being affected by consumption in other zones. In addition to high power capacities, maximum reliability is guaranteed.

  • High-density 2–5 kW/m²

  • Two transformers fed by two EW substations

  • Diesel generator and two separate UPS circuits

Cooling Efficiency

Climate control is key to the efficient and environmentally friendly operation of a data center. Thanks to the free-cooling principle used at EveryWare, optimized airflow, and a custom-designed rack layout, power usage efficiency is achieved that is well below the European benchmark. In addition to high power capacities, maximum reliability is guaranteed.

  • Redundant (N+1) air conditioning units

  • Two recooling circuits

  • Hot-cold aisle containment

  • Custom rack layout and airflow management
