When SDN began searching for locations for its multi-million dollar second-facility, it did a lot of research. The 65-acre site that was chosen has easy access to both major South Dakota Interstates (I-29 and I-90). The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) also provided insightful information to help choose the best location based on historic weather patterns.

Features of this high-tech data vault include:

  • Redundant power feeds
  • High-tech electronic identification security measures 24x7x365
  • A concrete facility with 12 inch walls built to withstand tornadic conditions and other weather hazards
  • Temperature-controlled environment that will be monitored 24x7

     

  • Battery back-up and generator power
  • Access to SDN’s network and Internet service
  • Superior redundancy and self-healing circuitry
  • State-of-the-art fire protection
     

The building will serve as a switch site location, co-location facility, data center, disaster recovery site, and point of presence.

Co-location suites can be leased at this site in 2,500 square foot increments.
