Nov 17, 2008 : Halliburton Moves Into CyrusOne

📅 November 17, 2008 - Colocation provider CyrusOne (cyrusone.com) announced on Monday that Halliburton (halliburton.com) has selected the company as its data center partner to service its mission-critical IT infrastructure needs.

Halliburton, which is one of the world's largest providers of products and services to the oil and gas industry, will relocate and consolidate its hardware systems to occupy several thousand square feet of data center space in CyrusOne's newly constructed facility in Lewisville, Texas.

The data center will later become a key server hosting location for Halliburton's 24-hour operations services.

"Leveraging a high availability colocation provider for flexibility, scalability and adaptability is becoming more common for companies that choose to no longer invest capital dollars building and operating their own data centers," says David Ferdman, CEO of CyrusOne. "Halliburton is a great match for the model, allowing for rapid deployment of mission critical systems during times of growth and overall efficiencies in their data center infrastructure."

The CyrusOne Lewisville data center features CAT-6A cabling, which delivers data transfer at speeds up to 10GB.

To meet Halliburton's extensive cabling needs, technical specialists built a dense yet highly partitioned cable infrastructure that facilitates maximum network performance and rapid service response.

Each foot of cable is labeled and traceable, enabling technicians to immediately detect any problems or defects.

An on-site electrical substation provides full 2N redundancy, two independent power grids, three separate substations, two 42 MVA transformers within on-site substations and a tie breaker to further reinforce 2N reliability and seamless productivity.

Additionally, the facility features unlimited bandwidth capabilities, which can be upgraded to OC-192, while its connectivity is secured through a dual sonet ring powered by major telecommunications carriers.

CyrusOne provides data center services, offering colocation and implementation services for customers in the healthcare, energy and financial industries.

The company was acquired in July 2007 by media and communications private equity firm ABRY Partners.
