Resiliency by design

furthering data centre design excellence and
helping to de昀椀ne new ‘Best Practices’, Kao
Data is a member of the OCP Data Centre
Facility Working Group. As Board members
we continue to look for ways to improve our
operations in open collaboration with other
project members, creating an accelerated
cycle of innovation. Kao Data was the 昀椀rst
UK data centre to achieve OCP-Ready status
in 2018, being successfully self audited
against OCP’s checklist for compliance.
Our KLON-01 facility achieved over 75% in
the ‘Optimum’ category, meaning that our
systems go beyond the base requirement,
ensuring compliance with emerging ‘futureproof’ standards.
