Why Summit

Why choose Summit data centers

Redundancy and Uptime Assurance

Our data centers are engineered with N+1/2N topologies, dual utility feeds, and diverse fiber paths. These configurations back our 100% power and network availability SLAs, so your workloads stay online even during maintenance or power events. This level of resilience is what sets our enterprise data center infrastructure apart, giving businesses the confidence to run mission-critical applications without disruption.

Strong Physical Protection

Each enterprise data center features mantraps, biometric access systems, on-site guards, and continuous CCTV monitoring. Segmented access protocols maintain secure separation between customer environments. By operating in highly controlled data center environments, we reduce the potential for physical threats and keep your assets protected 24/7.

Compliance-Ready Operations

Summit’s compliance framework maintains SOC 2 Type 2, PCI-DSS, and HIPAA-ready status across various data centers, supported by annual audits. This ensures you meet regulatory demands without building your own in-house controls. We also work closely with customers to align their operational requirements with our established compliance standards, ensuring readiness for even the most stringent industry reviews.

Flexible and Scalable Options

From single racks and cages to private suites, our data center services scale with your requirements. High-density configurations accommodate the needs of your business now and in the future. This flexibility allows organizations to deploy only the data center components they need today, while retaining the ability to expand as demands grow.

Technical Specifications

What the facilities are built on

01

Power Infrastructure

Dual utility feeds, automatic transfer switches, UPS systems, power infrastructure, and generators maintain constant operations. High-density rack options are available across our enterprise data centers. This physical infrastructure forms the foundation of our data center design, providing the resilience and redundancy needed for mission-critical workloads. In a modern data center, power systems must be both robust and adaptable to support diverse applications and higher density deployments without sacrificing reliability.

02

Cooling and Efficiency

CRAH and CRAC systems, aisle containment strategies, and low PUE values ensure an optimal data center environment for performance and energy efficiency. Our enterprise data center cooling methods are a core part of our physical infrastructure, maintaining consistent conditions for sensitive equipment. As part of a modern data center approach, our systems are engineered to handle varied workloads while reducing operational costs.

03

Network Backbone

Carrier diversity, IXPs, and redundant fiber paths deliver low-latency connectivity. Integrated DDoS protection strengthens network infrastructure and supports storage area networks for high-performance workloads. This connectivity supports communication between multiple data centers and is aligned with recognized data center tiers for reliability. Our carrier-neutral architecture allows businesses to optimize their network routes, improve redundancy, and ensure that their data center design supports growth, compliance, and performance as their business grows.

04

Monitoring and Management

Each of our data centers operates under strict SLAs with clearly defined facility availability targets to guarantee consistent performance. DCIM tools, environmental sensors, and automated alerts help monitor data center equipment and maintain uptime. Our data center services include proactive oversight to detect and resolve issues before they impact operations. By integrating monitoring into our data center design, we protect uptime and extend the life of critical assets.

Security & Compliance

Every facility is secured and audited

Physical controls, logged access, and annual third-party audits run across every Summit data center.

Physical Security

On-site staff, extensive CCTV coverage, and strict visitor policies provide advanced data center security. All access is logged and regularly reviewed. By maintaining strict access protocols, our enterprise data centers minimize the risk of unauthorized activity and ensure a secure operating environment.

Compliance Frameworks

Annual audits confirm SOC 2 Type 2, PCI-DSS, and HIPAA readiness. Compliance documentation is available to customers as part of our data center resources. This approach streamlines audit preparation and ensures that regulatory obligations are met with minimal disruption.

Migrations & Remote Hands

How migrations and Remote Hands work

Migration Planning

We create a step-by-step migration playbook that includes assessment, rack elevation design, cabling, cutover scheduling, and rollback contingencies. Each migration implementation is executed within the controlled setting of our data center facilities to protect both data center equipment and business continuity.

Remote Hands SLAs

Remote Hands provides installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting services. Each of our data centers operates under strict SLAs with clearly defined facility availability targets to guarantee consistent performance.

Interconnect & Cloud Access

Connect to anything, from anywhere

Cross-Connect Options

Copper and fiber cross-connects are available with fast provisioning times. Connect to carriers, partners, or other data center components.

Cloud On-Ramps

Private, high-speed links to AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud (Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, Cloud Interconnect). Keep traffic off the public internet, lower egress exposure, and enable true hybrid and multi-cloud inside our enterprise data centers.
