“ There ’ s one site in particular , Tamworth ,” Thorpe explains , “ where we ’ ve lost power on five occasions for up to four or five hours . The system has been tested on multiple occasions and we have 100 % uptime across the network to keep the data centres up and running . What we ’ ve built is highly resilient .”
The facility is a 50-year certified structure and despite the technology inside being bound to change over time , its long-term sustainability credentials ensure it can be hooked up to renewable power quickly in the not-so-distant future when it is less of a premium .
“ We ’ re operating in regional Australia and it ’ s beautiful , but it can be extremely harsh . Operating a 24 / 7 resilient data centre
