The recent times have witnessed a staggering amount of money being spent on data centers including the monumental outlay for basic infrastructure, energy bills, cost of maintenance and upgrades, and, of course, staffing with expensive IT talent. This makes it critical for CIOs that the data centers go online on time, ready for 24/7 uptime, especially if they are running mission-critical tasks. To this end, it is imperative for the CIOs to partner with a company that has the experience and knowledge of the data center operations. By delivering complete white space construction, modifications, and services to some of the leading commercial and government data centers across the country, Layer One Technology Solutions Corp. delivers on the role of a premier data center white space solution provider.
