Our clusters and technology platforms are hosted in DADA Group's server farm, guarantee of maximum security and assistance. The outside is protected 24/7 by a microwaves system, 7 cameras and a surveillance group ready to intervene in only three minutes. The inside of the building is monitored by 29 cameras and access to the structure is protected by badges and byometric and fingerprints recognition system.

Our server farm :

• Elevated and moveable floors are able to distribute weight up to 2000 kg/sq.m The floors have been tested to support a maximum weight of 500 kg/sq.m. each.
• Fire system has smoke detector senso24 hour escalating fire fighting and anti-flood systems. Gas used to put out fires: ArgonFire
• Electrical systems follow regulation standards and on two wings are redoubled in case of electrical failure. Each wing of the building has 3 transformers of 1.98 MVA each; the two wings are connected by bars of 3200 Ampere to furnish a protected system in case of an outage in an entire wing Protection against any type of electrical disturbance such as the reduction in tension or variations in frequency is guaranteed by 12 UPS EDP90 of 60 kVA and accumulator batteries parallel configured and protected which assure the maximum dependability towards critical currents.
• Internal temperature is guaranteed to be within 20°C and 23°C, thanks to the Sanyo Air Conditioning system developed to disperse heat of 3,5 kilowatts per rack. 400 evaporation units are set up within the building, 20.000 meters of brass tubes and 66 external motor condensors of 84 kilowatts each are set up on the roof; the control is administered through specialized software, even remotely. Escalation system is armed 24 hours. Stable 18-22°C.
• Dependability of the system is ulterior increased by 12 CROSS of 800 amperes, which guarantee the Server Farm "Protection of Protection" of electrical feed to assure the protection and distribution of electricity in addition to the UPS. Emergency diesel generators (4 diesel CTM motors of 2 megawatts each with 45 cubed meters of diesel fuel) with autonomy for a minimum of 10 days.

Data protection
Every hosting is protected and filtered by gateway aplications that allow the users to perform scripts without compromising the server http security and to benefit from our server's power.

What does the CGIwrap do?

• It maps the folder the user accesses, as if it was the server root.
• It makes your domain's folder a chrooted area.
• No user can perform, read or write a file outside its space, since the root of every user's space represents the uncrossable server's limit.
• Total cover from intrusions coming from bug or backdoor to access a server's space. The actions allowed would always be limited to the space he accessed.
