Carrier Class–4 major telecoms, redundant architecture,
world-class security
We demanded the very best data center for our clients. For that
reason, we selected First National Technology Solutions (FNTS) as the
provider of the Docuvation data center. The Docuvation service operates out
of the Carrier Class facility operated by FNTS. This facility offers the
very best in security, redundancy and connectivity.
First National invested more than $70 million to create the Midwest’s
most reliable, secure data center for business customers. The state-of-art
center allows companies to house their critical systems and operations in a
location known for world-class Internet connectivity, unprecedented
security, and unmatched power. The Omaha Data Center was built with
redundant power, redundant communications, and redundant environmentals.
First National Technical Solutions operates next generation data
centers and co-location facilities that are uniquely engineered to provide a
secure environment, in which Docuvation users can house their
mission-critical information.
Facility
The FNTS technical team’s experience in the design and development of
world-class data centers is the reason behind their strict adherence to
physical plant characteristics in the data centers including:
- Three-foot thick cement walls, floors and ceilings
surround the inner bunker of the facility.
- The perimeter of the building is encased in 200mph,
impact-resistant glass and designed to withstand a direct hit from a
tornado.
- A dry-moat surrounding the entire building offers a final layer of
physical security.
- Raised floors and Liebert HVAC ensure free flowing cooling and
provide environmental controls to maintain ideal operating conditions.
- Smoke and leak detection and water-free, automated fire suppression
systems.
- Liebert uninterruptible power system (UPS) purifies electricity to
prevent and provide instantaneous backup.
- Autonomous fuel-cell electrical generation: FNTS generates power
on-site.
- Redundant power utility connections—two distinct points of
connection on two separate circuits.
Connectivity
Key connectivity issues as they pertain to FNTS’ data centers are:
- Multiple bandwidth providers terminating at separate
central offices . If one carrier experiences problems, traffic is
re-routed instantaneously to alternate carriers.
- Three distinct DS-3 trunks provide failover connections.
Security
Security of our data center environment should meet and exceed the
security standards you should insist upon for the protection of your digital
information. First National Technical Solutions takes security to a new
level, highlights include:
- Secured facility access through multiple checkpoints
and systems.
- Closed-circuit video surveillance of corridors and data center.
- 24/7/365 operations support and security.
- Leading-edge firewall and intrusion detection technologies.
- Biometric iris-scan security systems and “man-traps” at entrances
to raised floor rooms.
