Welcome to our SEA2 Data Centre Tour!
The Seattle Data Centre is housed in a building specifically designed and
built as a data-centre, to the very highest standards of construction, located
in the heart of Seattle's technology area.

Caterpillar Generator
Here is the too-big-to-fit-into-a-single-picture 1.5MW Caterpillar generator.

Air Conditioning
Also found in the secure outside enclosure are over 600 tons worth of dry
collers for the Data Centre Air Conditioning units.

Roll-up Generator connection
Seen here is the redundant roll-up Generator connection.

Security
Security and safety are taken very seriously, through 24x7x365 staffing and
strict customer access control, biometric security, video surveillance, and
dual-layer fire detection and suppression systems.

Network
As at all our other Data Centres, the network is fully fault-tolerant, with
redundant carrier-grade Cisco 12008 & 12012 GSR core routers, Catalyst 6500 MSFC
distribution B switches, and Catalyst 4912G distrition A switches, all always
fed off separate, redundant power circuits (both DC and AC power).

Fibre Entry Points and Transport Providers
A significant amount of work has been put in to ensure that there are
multiple fibre entry points and multiple fibre transport providers in the
facility, ensuring the utmost redundancy and fault-tolerance possible.
