建筑特征审查
每个数据中心的创建都不是平等的。您是否知道并理解如何利用您的建筑特征来确保增长空间并降低风险?
Uptime Institute 的建筑特征审查审查您的设施的建筑和结构特征。
建筑特征审查评估标准和方法源自 Uptime Institute 的 Tier Standards,以及通过与全球数千个数据中心合作获得的广泛现场经验,以及通过分析数十年来收集的世界上最大的数据中心事件和中断知识库获得的见解。
This review builds on the characteristics included in the Tier Standards, with a major expansion of focus on the architectural and structural data center features. This focus allows for a more in-depth and detailed review of criteria on critical support space allocation, code compliance and more.

Evaluating Facility Risk, While Planning for Growth
The Building Characteristics Review is an important component in the strategic review of any data center. It closely evaluates the building setup and architecture to ensure it can accommodate the data center, staff, operations and the overall needs of the business.
Once the Review is completed, customers receive an unbiased report on their building and architectural conditions, with recommendations for mitigating and remediating any gaps in order to align the site’s infrastructure and operations with business requirements.
