Moscow One data centre has a full set of certificates for compliance with the Uptime Institute Tier III standard, including a certificate for Operational Sustainability.

"We are gradually increasing the capacity of our data center taking into account the occupancy rate of the available space. In 2018, the capacity of halls equipped with all the necessary engineering systems and fully prepared to accommodate clients' IT equipment was increased to 2,000 racks. This places us among the top three leaders in the Russian commercial data center market, which is fully in line with the company's development strategy," said DataPro CEO Evgeny Bogdanchikov.
