Waco ITG

Profile

The Waco Information Technology Gateway (ITG) is a repurposed Cold War nuclear fall-out shelter, providing physical security previously unmet in the commercially available data center market. It's Central Texas location is within a 100-mile radius from Dallas, Austin, Houston and San Antonio, allowing for true data replication between the W-ITG and clients in those cities. In addition, the Waco location is easily accessible by car in the event of an attack that impacts the nation's airways.

The W-ITG is located on a power grid separate from Texas' major city systems, providing an advantage during potential blackouts and brownouts. It incorporates dual transformer commercial power feeds and multi-carrier fiber availability for operating capacity and redundancy. The facility features a layered security protocol that includes biometrics, magnetic key cards, DVR cameras and onsite personnel. An 80-space parking lot has been converted to support mobile work-space recovery vehicles in the event employees are displaced from their daily work environments.
