Remember this photograph?...

That was our datacenter expansion space in late 2006 after we'd put in the walls and floor, HVAC plenum & ducts, fire suppression systems and whatnot. You can see the PDU at the far end. Not long after this photo was taken our first client moved in.

Well, here is another photo taken today, from the exact same spot:

Datacenter Two here at digital.forest is complete, and fully occupied. Our most recent caged space client moved in over the holidays.

Never resting however, we're continuing to expand. Seeing DC2 fill up we began planning and preparing our next datacenter space: Datacenter Three. In the coming months we'll have more news but here is a small preview: A new UPS is on its way, DC3 looks pretty much exactly like the image of the "before" DC2 you see above... floor is laid, HVAC plenum installed, and ready to finish. Here is a sneak peek... These photographs are taken from opposite corners of the DC looking in. The top image is looking south, towards DC2. The bottom image is looking north (towards what will be DC4). As you can see we've been using the shell of Datacenter Three as a staging area for server cabinets for DC1 & DC2. We'll be delivering power and cooling to this room soon, and will have it open for business before the time the flowers start blooming outside in the garden.

We also have some "remodeling" we're doing in DC1. Stay tuned for more news about our continuing expansion!
