Evaluating geographic criteria for risk mitigation in data center site selection

New analytical white paper from data center services provider Fortrust.

July 10, 2013

A new analytical white paper from data center services provider Fortrust takes as its premise the notion that, as companies rely on their data centers to provide the foundation for much of their business, a thorough evaluation of key geographical factors related to risk mitigation and data center site selection is critical.

The white paper examines major criteria for use in geographic data center site selection, discussing the various risk factors that may impact data center operations by geography. The research is an extension of the provider's due diligence in establishing its own data center operations based in Colorado, and provides an overview of the Fortrust facility as it relates to geographic site selection criteria.
