City’s Only Public Colocation Data Center Undergoes Significant Upgrade for Multi-Billion Dollar Video Game Publisher
(Seattle, Washington—September 18, 2018) Colocation Northwest, a division of IsoFusion, a leading provider of Internet access and IT services in the Puget Sound region, announced today it completed upgrades to its Bellevue Washington data center to allow for one megawatt of service capacity. The data center, located in Bellevue Washington’s Eastgate neighborhood, completed a four-fold capacity increase from 250 kilowatts to one megawatt. The expansion included a state-of-the-art data center wing, immediately occupied by a global top-5 video game publisher and distributor.
The data center features state-of-the-art power, cooling, fire suppression and security. To comply with the City of Bellevue’s sound impact concerns, Colocation Northwest installed Liebert DSE zero-water cooling units, MC Outdoor Condensers and Econophase pumped refrigerant economizers. Not only is this system whisper quiet, it significantly improves data center efficiencies.
“Our Bellevue colocation facility is open to any business requiring safe and reliable lease space for its IT equipment”, said Stephen Milton, Colocation Northwest CEO. “The data center expansion offers Eastside businesses a previously unavailable combination of computing power and proximity.”
The Bellevue data center supplies Tier I connectivity, the highest level of data and internet communications via Colocation Northwest’s redundant fiber network. Colocation Northwest operates a proprietary 180 Gbps dark fiber loop that circles Lake Washington and interconnects all of the company’s data centers with additional network fiber routes to Colocation Northwest’s California locations and transpacific network access points to Asia and Pacific ring networks. Users can use this fiber loop to access more than 250 carriers and service providers, including high-speed international access.
The Colocation Northwest Bellevue data center offers powerful computing for Eastside businesses in their own community with the option for systems management and connectivity to Colocation Northwest’s west coast redundant network of data center locations. Coupled with its expansion last year into the Centeris South Hill data center campus, Colocation Northwest continues to strengthen its ability to service enterprise and high-density customers with the most reliable, scalable, fully managed colocation solutions and facilities on the west coast.
