IO trademarked the term “DCaaS™”, which stands for “Data Center as a Service”. IO’s data center services cover a wider range of IT requirements, including:

1. Colocation
2. Private Cloud Computing
3. Modular Data Center (IO ANYWHERE®)
4. Data Center Network
5. Remote Support

Colocation

IO’s colocation facilities are carrier-neutral, with a BGP bandwidth solution that includes tier-1 providers AT&T, AboveNet, Level3, Qwest and TeliaSonera. Cooling availability is very flexible with solutions ranging from N to 2N availability. Power density isn’t listed, but each data center site shows plenty of available power.

In addition, IO offers free remote hands support, a 100% uptime service level agreement, free cross-connects, all located in their Tier III data centers.

Modular Data Center

While similar looking to an Iso Container, the modular data center is a scalable modular platform. The benefits of the IO ANYWHERE® include a low 1.17 PUE and a quick setup/install time.

The Tough Questions

Was the development of the modular data center too big of a move for IO?

IO has 1,459,000 sq. ft. (831,000 in New Jersey, 538,000 in Phoenix, and 90,000 in Scottsdale) of data center space. How much of that is already committed or sold?

As of November 2011, IO Data Centers website still shows that IO abides by the SAS 70 internal controls. When will IO make the switch to SSAE 16?
