Seismic Risk Mitigation
Don’t be like the guy who said, “A large part of my disaster recovery plan hinges on there not being a disaster.”
Earthquakes are one of the largest threats to business continuity in earthquake zones. And, when it comes to earthquake zones, it is not a question of “if” but “when”.
Base isolation is the cutting edge solution used by architects and engineers worldwide to protect buildings, bridges, and other structures from the damaging effects of earthquakes. Now, that same technology has been applied to data centers in the form of the ISO-Base seismic isolation platform. The seismic base isolation works by de-coupling away strong seismic ground motions and vibrations from a structure, eliminating or dramatically reducing the path through which damaging shock waves and vibrations travel.
Today, SharkRack customers are mitigating their risks and assuring their business continuity through earthquakes by base isolating their cabinets with the ISO-Base.
