Liquid Web

Background:
We own and operate multiple data center facilities in South East Michigan. This facility is located in Southfield, Michigan and comprises of 16,000 sq feet of total space. It's segmented into 4,000 square feet of office space and 12,000 square feet of space dedicated to data center operations. Power is provided to us by DTE for a total of nearly 3 megawatts of power (4000 amps at 480 volts). The distribution of power inside our data rooms is handled by Liebert power distribution units. These PDUs are fed by our dual Liebert UPS systems and can be dynamically allocated to provide N+0, N+1, or N+2 redundancy levels based on the customer's requirement. We currently employ two primary and one redundant 750 kilowatt generators to provide continuous critical power in a N+1 configuration. Our generator system is fully wired to expand. Our cooling infrastructure is configured in an N+X format delivering a continuous 450 tons of availability via our Liebert dry coolers. Data room cooling is setup for N+1 redundancy on a per-room basis.
