What is a Compliant Data Center?
By Carpathia Hosting on Oct 05, 2010.
Simply put, a compliant data center is a data center that conforms to a set of regulatory rules, specifications, standards or laws. Conforming to mandated laws or standards to meet federal and commercial regulations requires a considerable investment infrastructure, personnel and services. However, due to the significant cost, many commercial or private data centers have not made the proper investment in the physical, environmental and operational controls and services to meet the minimum regulatory requirements.
