About
Oper8 MicroDC
Mission critical IT, Network, Compute and IoT platforms come in many different sizes – however, all them have something in common – their mission critical nature.
Complementing cloud solutions with on-premise infrastructure is a natural fit for many organisations who require:
- Local hyperconverged IT platforms
- The need to maintain existing applications or business systems locally – whether they might work in the cloud or not
- High Performance Compute (HPC) locally
- Cost effective, office connected, (10Gbps to 100Gbps) fibre-speed connectivity to critical compute infrastructure
- Low latency applications
- Local data storage
- A distributed mesh of local data centre capacity
A Micro Data Centre, or MicroDC, is a purpose-built data centre comprising one or more IT racks, integrated (and dedicated) cooling racks, with fully integrated systems typical of larger data centre facilities. Oper8’s MicroDCs include integrated power protection, cooling, monitoring and optional fire detection and suppression.
Private Cloud or Hyper-Converged Platform?
WAN bandwidth costs stifling your projects?
Aging Data Centre systems holding you back?
Not interested in Data Centre Management?
Lack of Data Centre power and cooling?
Systems can't migrate to the Cloud?
Latency and network performance challenges?
No local Cloud platforms or infrastructure?
Need local data storage with cloud backup?
Oper8 Global - IT Eco System
The MicroDC is part of the Oper8 Global IT Ecosystem range of Data Centre solutions. Also check the MicroDC FlexCool solution supporting Warehouse, Distribution and Industry 4.0 deployments.
Smaller options are available with the PicoDC and NanoDC, while more capacity is available through our prefabricated MDC solutions.
HPC solutions are aligned for deployment with our MicroDC range, MDC Solutions or with our turnkey HPC platforms.
