New data center build in Guelph

Guelph Data Centre Is Leader In Energy Efficiency And Security

Guelph Southendல் புதிய DATA Center ஒன்றை வெள்ளிக்கிழமை திறக்கவுள்ளனர்.  இங்கு சேமிக்கப்படும் தகவல்கள் பூமி அதிர்ச்சியினாலோ, சூராவளியினாலோ சேதம் அடையாமல் இருக்கும் வண்ணம் வடிவமைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.



new data centre that the province has officially opened in south Guelph is designed to keep providing vital data even during a tornado or earthquake.

At the new facility at 1000 Southgate Dr., such disasters “will not interrupt the flow of information so critical to life in the province,” Minister of Government Services Harinder Takhar said at the opening Friday.

There’s just a skeleton staff at the facility now, but over the next year more staff will arrive as data applications are transferred from the old Downsview data centre. In all, 30 permanent jobs will be created at the Guelph facility, on top of the 400 construction jobs involved in building it, reporters were told.

The province has been consolidating data operations and closing dozens of such centres, many of them small, since 2005. Six are still operating, including the new one in Guelph. The ultimate goal is to reduce that number to two, including the one in Guelph, said Ron McKerlie, the deputy minister of government services.
