Leave a comment

Scheduled for Completion in 2014, T5@Colorado Data Center Strategically Located to Lower Power Consumption and Take Advantage of Colorado’s Digital Economy.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (April 23, 2013) — T5 Data Centers, innovators in providing state-of-the-art, customizable and highly reliable computing support environments for any enterprise, has started construction on T5@Colorado, its sixth data center complex, in Colorado Springs. The new $800 million data center campus will be situated on 64 acres and promises to offer businesses high reliability at lower operating costs while boosting job creation in the area. Completion of the first phase of the project is expected by Q1 2014.

T5@Colorado is a purpose-built data center park designed to meet the immediate Information Technology needs of modern business with the flexibility to grow for the future. The data center campus promises 100 MW of available power with sustainable, eco-friendly design capabilities and offers power rates of $0.0444 per kilowatt-hour with the potential to utilize free cooling over 97 percent of the year. It will be ideal for either single-tenant enterprise users or wholesale colocation with Tier II, III, or IV capability and unlimited design flexibility to service requirements as diverse as cloud, big data or high performance computing.

T5 continues to develop state-of-the-art data centers in strategic locations to deliver maximum capacity, security and service with minimal operating overhead. The new Colorado Springs campus will be able to take advantage of the high plains climate by using the cooler, drier external air to reduce air conditioning and operating costs. The location also is strategically placed close to the Denver Technology Center, a technology and telecommunications hub, and will serve as a central data relay center to lower latency for business-critical enterprise applications from coast to coast.

T5 executives anticipate that the new data center campus will create 400 – 600 new high-paying jobs in the area. Industry research indicates that for every job directly created by the data center, there are five jobs created indirectly.

“Colorado Springs is the ideal location for the next phase of our expansion,” said Peter Marin, President and CEO of T5 Data Centers. “This is a vibrant, growing area with a strong and supportive business climate, and the proximity to Denver, as well as local colleges and military installations, gives us access to terrific talent and local resources. We want this new data center campus to be groundbreaking as an eco-friendly green facility, offering our customers the best possible enterprise infrastructure and support services at competitive rates.”

Cloud computing and data processing continue to be growth markets. A report by Biggins Lacy Shapiro & Co. predicts that new construction for large enterprise data centers will increase from $6 billion in 2012 to $12 billion by 2015. According to International Data Corporation, spending on cloud computing services was expected to grow from $16.2 million in 2008 to $42 million by the end of 2012, making the IT industry and data processing the fastest growing industry in the United States.

Award-Winning Company Offers Business Plan Booster

Leave a comment

Tech Geek Ministries, a small business web design, hosting and training company, released the self-study guide Business Plan Booster recently to help entrepreneurs develop a successful roadmap to their businesses.

Noble, OK, April 17, 2013 – Tech Geek Ministries, a small business web design, hosting and training company, released the self-study guide Business Plan Booster recently to help entrepreneurs develop a successful roadmap to their businesses.

Business Plan Booster includes two self-study guides that explain what business owners must do to prepare for writing a business plan and what must be included when writing the plan. The Booster also includes a business plan template and, in the future, may include specific times during which Waters will answer questions regarding business plans.

Waters speaks from experience. She recently won 3rd place in the state-wide Oklahoma Baptist University Enactus Business Plan Competition in Shawnee, OK.

“This is very exciting time for Tech Geeks,” said Waters, who is also a 7th grade Language Arts teacher. “We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to help merchants build their online presence. But we also know that handing someone a website is not enough. Website owners must be trained in how to develop their businesses and how to use websites. Similarly, a carpenter needs a blueprint as a starting point, and needs to learn how to effectively and properly work with the materials and tools at his disposal.”

Teek Geek Ministries is a web design, hosting and training company based in Noble, Oklahoma. Owners Steve and Michelle Waters, with more than 23 years combined experience in the technology industry, developed a plan to assist Oklahoma small business owners and ministries in creating and maintaining online visibility through websites, social media and training.

Over the next year, there are going to be some significant changes made to the site that will transform and enhance Confusion Corner overall.”

The Imperial Properties team has been working on the development project for the past months, and now that warmer weather is on its way, the company is eager begin the demolition and construction process.

The Landmark Office Tower will be a first-class commercial structure featuring large windows, an open and customizable floor plan, modern mechanical systems and onsite property management. It is located at the highest traffic count intersection of Winnipeg, where traffic counts average more than 91,100 vehicles per day. It is the key connection point to the City Center, Osborne and Corydon Village.

Already leased are the main retail floor-to a national restaurant chain-and one office floor, which a business center operator will occupy. This leaves three floors and 18,120 total square feet available which are ideal for professional or medical office use.

The amenities of the new building, combined with its outstanding landmark location, are sure to give tenants some wonderful opportunities for success.”

Wednesday’s demolition will also provide media members with the opportunity to take “before” photos of the current structure, and then track the effort’s progress in the upcoming months.
