Maximum performance and security with Aruba’s future-ready data centers

Learn about the technology model behind Aruba Data Centers, built to manage complex IT solutions and enable AI-driven projects.

Resilience, modularity, and sustainability

Aruba Data Centers are designed and built to meet and exceed the Rating 4 requirements of ANSI/TIA-942-B-2017. The underlying technology model is scalable across all sites, which are located in areas considered safe from seismic and hydrogeological risks.

All facilities are ISO 27001 compliant (Information Security Management System) and ideal for enabling AI-driven projects. By generating electricity from renewable sources and using clean energy, we help achieve the objectives of the Climate Neutral Data Center Pact.

Service continuity

  • UPS, generators and redundant cooling systems
  • Two PDU (Power Distribution Units) per rack cabinet
  • Emergency generators with 48-hour full-load autonomy without refueling
  • Net Operation Centers manned 24/7 and constantly interconnected
  • Ultra-redundant connectivity systems thanks to agreements with numerous operators

Data room spread over three levels with areas 100% dedicated to it

Highly efficient cooling systems

Efficient air-conditioning containment systems for cooling equipment minimize the loss of cooling capacity: the flow of cold air is channeled from the underfloor inside the individual racks, or in corridors of cold air (Cold Air Containment) or hot air (Hot Air Containment), offering "island" cooling; for both configurations, the air heated by the servers is forced into the upper plenum, a large space above data room 2.

Power center in dedicated building

Energy reaches the power center through multiple separate paths. From here power is distributed to the various data rooms in a modular way using segregated power supply lines. 

The power modules, with the various components (including the backup batteries) distributed in dedicated containers, are located in a power center building that is isolated from the data rooms, while the emergency systems are located outside. This physical separation guarantees an additional level of security.

Facilities monitored by building management system (bms)

All the systems in the data center are continually monitored by specialist staff using Building Management System (BMS). The performance of each component is kept under 24/7 control to ensure that the whole infrastructure runs properly.

Physical security

The security of facilities is primarily guaranteed thanks to access controls, anti-intrusion systems and CCTV. At all entry points, from the entrance gate to locks on individual rack cabinets, authentication systems are in place, with security passes configured according to business need.

Energy production

Large areas of the data centers and attached power centers produce clean energy via thousands of photovoltaic panels installed on the roofs and exterior with the best exposure to the sun.

In addition, Aruba uses their own hydroelectric plants to produce clean electricity.
