Cleveland Clinic Data Center

The Clinic treats 4.6 million patients a year through 26 health institutes, and its medical records (which are maintained digitally) need to be available 24/7. Oriented to provide the most scenic views to the workplace area, this state-of-the-art, LEED®-NC Silver-certified facility consolidates legacy equipment and is expandable to support research supercomputing. Robust, redundant and fault-tolerant infrastructure, coupled with forward-thinking architectural design, rise to the challenge: Researchers can take advantage of the facility’s flexibility to house supercomputers that support new avenues of medicine, which helps attract and retain talent and support grant proposals.
