Frequently asked questions

What is a data center?
A data center is a purpose-built facility designed to house and manage critical data and IT infrastructure. Data centers house computer systems, networking equipment and storage systems, and provide a secure, controlled environment to protect critical data and applications.
What is a colocation data center?
A colocation data center, sometimes called a colo data center, is a secure facility where businesses and organizations can rent space to house their servers and networking equipment while maintaining control over their hardware and data. Iron Mountain Data Centers offers colocation services.
Why are data centers important?
Data centers store and process the data we use in our daily lives. They provide a secure and controlled environment with advanced infrastructure that ensures data is always available and reliable.
How secure are data centers?
Data centers use multiple layers of security to protect against unauthorized access, physical threats and data breaches. Security measures include multi-factor access controls, surveillance systems, firewalls, intrusion detection systems, security personnel and strict security protocols.
What are the different types of data centers?
There are several types of data centers. Hyperscale data centers are huge facilities with vast data processing and storage needs. Edge data centers are smaller data centers located closer to end users to provide low-latency computing. An enterprise data center facility is a data center owned or leased by a single organization. An underground data center is a facility located underground. Iron Mountain Data Centers has an underground data center in Boyers, PA.
What infrastructure does a data center need?
Every data center has essential infrastructure components: robust power systems with backup generators for uninterrupted power, cooling systems to prevent equipment damage, and networking infrastructure for data transfer. Physical security measures such as cameras and multi-factor access controls are necessary to safeguard against unauthorized access and threats.
