Intellectual Assets Safe with Data Foundry

Posted by DeanPerrine on August 9th, 2011

Data Foundry recently (read: this week) secured a deal with Liquid Litigation Management, a provider of web-based litigation tools to firms and corporations across the country. This deal is of particular interest because we’re talking about legal stuff here – it’s right behind personal health records (and maybe in front of that depending on who you’re asking) in terms of REALLY important stuff. Any systems associated with this data have got to be reliable and most importantly, secure…or someone is in big trouble.

Liquid Litigation’s Lit Manager, offers the only Web-based application in the legal market that enables users to review discovery, produce, and manage related daily case materials through a single interface. This allows corporations and law firms to save a substantial amount of time and money. It also means that the folks they choose to provide data center solutions had better be the best. It’s not surprising then that they chose Data Foundry, which offers some of the most advanced data center solutions available, including unprecedented levels of redundancy, reliability and, of course, security.

“Liquid Litigation’s customers’ proprietary information and intellectual assets require the utmost protection and confidentiality,” states Scott Pittman, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder of Liquid Litigation Management, Inc.  “Data Foundry’s ability to deliver fully redundant and secure colocation solutions meshes perfectly with our needs. By outsourcing our core business platform to Data Foundry, we’re able to reduce IT expenditures and free up key personnel to focus on our clients’ business. Their capacity and design flexibility gives us the confidence that we can scale for future growth requirements, which if kept in-house would not have been possible.”

Data Foundry’s Texas 1, a new 250,000 square foot, carrier-neutral data center offers companies the opportunity for future scalability of their infrastructure. Texas 1 is the first purpose-built data center constructed on the 40-acre, master-planned Data Ranch development site.

I Prefer Disaster Proofery

Posted by DeanPerrine on July 20th, 2011

I’m confused. If a **insert natural disaster here** were to occur and it were to destroy or severely damage the place in which you’ve chosen to colocate your mission critical data and IT hardware, what would you do? Nothing, right? You’re protected because your data center – colocation solution included (said with large echoed voice) – DISASTER. RECOVERY. SOLUTIONS. Okay, I know what disaster recovery is and I understand redundancy (meaning each system or component has a back-up plan), but doesn’t true disaster recovery mean not having to recover from a disaster? I’d prefer something called “Disaster Proofery”. While I doubt I’ll be able to get the team at Data Foundry to run with a name change, their new Texas 1 data center provides the closest thing to “Disaster Proofery” available.

Texas 1, the first purpose-built, carrier-neutral data center in the Central Texas region is now open for business. The initial phase of the highly anticipated 250,000 SF data center is fully operational and the first customers have begun to move in.  Texas 1 is the first facility on the 40-acre master-planned data center development in Austin called the “Data Ranch” (love this name – innovative cowboys and tech geeks unite!). Texas 1 offers secure colocation and disaster recovery solutions (they mean Disaster Proofery), including dedicated worksite recovery space. Texas 1’s unique design includes independent and diverse power, water and network feeds with no single point of failure within its power, cooling and network systems. The site’s fully redundant power is fed from two separate substations, a rare feature for data centers, with a dedicated feed enclosed in an end-to-end, concrete encased duct bank.  The chilled water cooling system enables maximum cooling flexibility from standard single cabinet deployments to high density configurations. Even the most complex High Performance Computing (HPC) environments can be properly cooled and supported within Texas 1. With over 15 network carriers available, Texas 1 also provides customers a variety of carrier-neutral options for their network solution.

The Data Ranch is open and Texas 1 is taking customers…but only those interested in a meaningful and ‘futureproof’ data center solution need apply.

I was confident that we were receiving a true consultation and the level of professionalism was beyond our expectations.”

Exploring Next-Generation Scale-out Server Architectures by Manuel Martull,
Senior Director Server Marketing for Fujitsu

Today’s datacenter IT staffs are under immense pressures, not only from pricing perspectives, but also power, cooling, and the cost of server administration in an increasingly complex virtualized environment. Server architecture choices however, have never been better with varying designs including traditional 1U and 2U rack servers, but also dense-blades, and new scale-out computing nodes.

Although rack servers have been shown to scale up to 80 cores/2TB memory on a single machine, are they a better choice than a densely-packed Blade chassis with consolidated networking on the back-end? And what about Private cloud implementations or the new ‘scale-out’ cloud computing servers where new designs are eliminating traditional hot & cold aisle to reclaim and increase datacenter space utilization?
