TECH.RU / Yaroslavskaya (Tech.ru Ostapovsky) Data Center

The Ostapovsky Data Center is a premier facility that has been a mainstay in the industry since becoming operational in 2007. Designed to provide top tier data services, the center is built to a Tier 3 design standard. This classification ensures high availability and indicates that the facility is concurrently maintainable, meaning any component can be removed for maintenance without impacting the overall operation of the equipment it supports.

To guarantee continuous operation and 99.98 percent availability, the facility is equipped with a robust power architecture. It features redundant power supplies, including uninterruptible power supplies and heavy duty backup generators. This setup ensures that even during a total utility power failure, the data center remains online.

This commitment to uptime is further supported by an N plus 1 cooling redundancy configuration, which utilizes state of the art systems to maintain optimal temperatures and ensure the longevity of high performance hardware.

Connectivity is a core strength of the Ostapovsky facility, which provides high speed internet connections and multiple redundant network paths. These diverse paths minimize the risk of downtime caused by external fiber cuts or carrier specific network failures.

The infrastructure is designed for seamless data transfer, allowing businesses to move massive amounts of data with minimal latency while remaining protected by advanced firewalls and intrusion detection systems.

Security is handled through a rigorous multi layered approach to prevent unauthorized access. The facility utilizes a mantrap entry system, which ensures that only one person can pass through a secure area at a time.

This is bolstered by biometric access control, card access systems, and continuous CCTV surveillance monitoring all critical areas. These physical barriers ensure that the hardware housing sensitive client data remains protected from unauthorized parties.

Beyond digital and physical security, the Ostapovsky Data Center is designed to mitigate environmental risks. It employs a sophisticated gas fire extinguishing system equipped with early detection capabilities.

Unlike water based systems, this gas based suppression is designed to extinguish fires without damaging sensitive electronic components. This proactive approach to fire safety ensures that the data environment remains stable even in the event of an emergency.

The facility is backed by a dedicated team of professionals available around the clock. With continuous onsite security staff and continuous onsite technical staff, the center provides immediate response to any hardware or facility issues.

The center also offers Remote Hands services, allowing clients to have onsite technicians perform physical tasks such as rebooting servers, checking cables, or replacing hardware without the client needing to be physically present at the facility.
