Colocation Cages

Besides the modern form of colocation by racks, we also offer the option of using colocation by square meters. In this context, you can opt-in for “caging”, which is the use of a grid fence to build a security zone around your own IT. Such cages operate within a fire section and a shared data center space.

You can specify and request the precise cage configuration around your racks based on your company requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the advantages of a private room or a cage?

A Private Room or Cage has a secured area, which can be secured by an additional individually designed access control. It thus offers a higher security level and allows customers who have this requirement to obtain the necessary certifications. It is also possible to record in detail who and at what time entered the secured area. It is also possible to use this space partly as storage space or a temporary workstation.

Which access controls are available?

DARZ offers all common access controls such as sluices, finger or eye scan, as well as weight recognition at extra charge. In most cases the two-factor-authentication is chosen, where the customer receives a card and a pin, which opens the door by a combination of these two factors.

How is video surveillance implemented in the data center?

DARZ has a redundantly designed security system, which also includes video surveillance. The surveillance is realized 360° in and around the building so that all events inside and outside are recorded and documented.

How is DARZ prepared against power and cooling system failures?
DARZ was built according to DIN50600 and corresponds to the technical design of a CAT3+ data center. Therefore any necessary redundancies in the systems are provided for and are regularly maintained and tested. For example, during the annual Black Building Test, in which the data center switches off the power supply from the outside and is autonomously supplied by the emergency power system and UPS.
