Data Center Standards Sample Clauses

The Data Center Standards clause sets out the minimum technical and operational requirements that a data center must meet to ensure reliability, security, and efficiency. Typically, this clause specifies standards for power supply, cooling systems, physical security measures, and compliance with recognized industry certifications such as ISO or SSAE. By establishing clear benchmarks for infrastructure and operations, the clause helps ensure that data centers provide a consistent level of service and mitigate risks related to downtime, data breaches, or regulatory non-compliance.

Data Center Standards. Contractor’s Data Centers shall have fully redundant and diverse network paths to City endpoints. Data Centers shall be located in geographically different seismic zones characterized by the lowest predicted chance of damage as defined by the US Geological Survey Earthquake Hazards Program. Environmental systems must monitor/detect temperature, humidity, fluid leaks, fire/smoke/particulate and have accompanying suppression systems. Fire suppression systems should be dry pipe. Power should be fully conditioned to avoid spikes and other aberrations that can damage equipment. Temporary power units, such as generators, must be in place to support SaaS Services in the event of a power outage for up to three calendar days, and fuel replenishment contracts must be in place to keep temporary power operational for longer periods.
