Located 30 miles west of downtown Chicago on a five acre secure campus in Chicago's booming western suburbs, ByteGrid's Aurora/Chicago data center was designed to meet the security and high-availability needs of a major, publicly-traded financial institution. Built and commissioned in 2007, this 70,000 sqft, multi-tenant compliant data center facility (with 34,000 sqft raised floor space) offers the redundancy, resiliency, and multi-factor security protocols required for regulatory compliance with PCI, HIPAA, FISMA, and other industry-specific standards. This compliant data center provides convenient access to both OHare and Midway international airports. The ByteGrid Aurora/Chicago data center offers a flexible leasing model to help companies achieve a lower total cost of occupancy (TCO). Customers can lease one or more dedicated environments. If requirements change, additional space and power are available so companies can easily scale up. Ample technical office space is also available. The Aurora/Chicago data center is a Tier 3 compliant data center facility with redundant capacity components and multiple independent distribution paths serving all equipment. It has state-of-the-art electrical and mechanical systems to provide concurrently maintainable environments that support mission-critical, enterprise-scale data center requirements. It also benefits from a fiber-rich environment that enhances ByteGrid's vendor-neutral connectivity options.
