(Gawkwire) – Quasar Data Center announced today that they are expanding their existing co-location footprint in Houston, TX with the addition of 12,000 square feet of prime co-location space. Quasar Data Center is aggressively looking for an anchor tenant and can provide enterprise-class services such as N + 1 Infrastructure along with 24/7/365 support and security, 24/7/365 physical and remote access, high-density power configurations up to 10KW per rack, a carrier-neutral facility with connectivity to most major carriers and private space that can be customized and built to suit.
Casey Jones, Vice President of Operations, commented, “The data center is the backbone of any company operating in the digital economy today. Quasar has Microsoft, Linux, Solaris, Citrix, VMware, and Checkpoint certified technicians and supports physical hardware as well as virtual environments utilizing VMware and Xen products.”
Quasar has dual CenterPoint Energy power grids that supply 13.7 megawatts to the building. The building windows are rated for winds over 250 mph, and the demising walls are built from floor to ceiling. The building was originally established in 1983 as a data center hotel by AT&T and Verizon, offering disaster recovery assistance to businesses in the Gulf Coast area. Today, 29 years later, Quasar has proven itself as a reliable, hardened data center that can withstand any natural disaster. The facility has never lost power or been forced to operate from backup generators. Disruptive events, such as natural disasters and loss of power, are mitigated through building and infrastructure design.
“Our Tier 1 POP makes Quasar truly Carrier Neutral with over 35 different carriers and direct demarcation with the Pacific Rim. We are capable of providing “peered” bandwidth for greater redundancy and expeditious routing,” said Kevin Lambert, Vice President of Sales, Quasar Data Center.
