With almost
140,000 sqf of total built area, this new Scala data center is 56 meters high,
has seven floors, with four dedicated to data halls, which add up to more than
1,500 racks. Developed according to the Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design (LEED) certification, which is focused on sustainable constructions, the
single-tenant data center has a modern refrigeration system with indirect free
cooling (technology to optimize energy use at low temperatures), a redundant
UPS system and very high energy efficiency with PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness)
around 1,35, one of the lowest rates in the region. SGRUTB04 is also equipped
with meet-me rooms, dock, storage area, and an office fully dedicated to the
customer.
"Latin
America's largest vertical data center, SGRUTB04, is an excellent example of
Scala's multi-build approach. With this, we introduce the concept of built-in
reserved capacity, bringing unprecedented scalability to the Latin American
sector. This approach allows our clients to grow their business in a
sustainable way and in record time for decades", explains Marcos Peigo,
CEO of Scala.
The executive
also states that SGRUTB04 materializes Scala's successful commercial strategy,
in which the client employed the reserved capacity, doubling the contracted
capacity even before the initially planned production start date. "Unlike
the market in general, Scala does not just deliver contractual commitments; we
actually invest in our clients, positioning ourselves as true partners,"
he details.
In the rest of the region, Scala conducts advanced processes for constructing data centers in Chile, Mexico, Colombia, and Peru.
