Key features and benefits of DC2SCALE’s Paris Data Centre

600 m² of IT room with a capacity of 200 bays

The data center has 600 m² of space within a 1200 m² site, allowing clients to have rooms entirely customized to their needs. With a capacity of 200 bays, it can accommodate private cold corridors, private rooms, or individual colocation setups.

A Tier 3 design with electrical and cooling redundancy

The data center guarantees maximum electrical redundancy (N+1): designed, built and maintained by experts and in compliance with industry standards. From a cooling point of view, the site is equipped with direct free-cooling, coupled with a double chilled water loop allowing an excellent energy efficiency.

Redundant, smoothed and backed-up power supply

The datacenter has a 2x 1.5MVA connection (arterial break) supplying two separate main LVBs, secured by two generators with the possibility of connecting a mobile generator in the event of a major disaster.

Flexible corrugated power supply

Depending on the end customer's needs, the site is available in Design 3 (one corrugated channel, equipped with a string of two parallel inverters backed up by a second non-corrugated channel) or Design 4 (one corrugated channel, equipped with a string of two parallel inverters (N+1) as well as a second channel fed by a separate corrugated string).

Air conditioning cabinets (CRACs) in 2N

The datacenter has 6 Denco air conditioning units with direct freecooling functionality (fresh air supply and air mixing). Four units are required for the operation of the site at full load, and two units provide backup for the four "nominal" units. In parallel to the free-cooling mode, the site is equipped with two chilled water loops (two chillers each with their own hydraulic system). Each loop feeds three blowing cabinets.

Security 24/7

In order to protect your business and your servers - and as we put security at the core of our daily activity - a multitude of physical security systems are in place at our Velizy site. The site is supervised 24/7 by an external NOC and secured by a guard service.

Access to the datacenter

The Datacenter is accessed through a single-person airlock, preceded by a motorised armoured door and biometric access control. In addition, we have various infrared barriers, motion detectors and infrared cameras (with night-vision) both inside and outside the data center.

Sustainability

The data center prioritizes energy efficiency, utilizing renewable energy sources and innovative cooling systems to minimize its carbon footprint. It is committed to green initiatives aligned with global sustainability goals.
