Strategically located 60 miles from Washington D.C. in Culpeper, Va., the NAP of the Capital Region (NCR) opened in June 2008 as the most secure and technologically sophisticated datacenter campus in the eastern United States. The design of the NCR’s 30-acre campus, which can accommodate up to five, 50,000-square-foot independent datacenters and one 72,000-square-foot office building, was developed to exceed Federal standards for a data communications and hosting facility. This ground-breaking design resulted in a datacenter campus that meets the needs of today’s power, space and bandwidth-intensive mission-critical applications and hot/warm sites for disaster recovery/COOP environments.

Each datacenter structure is a secure bunker, designed to provide clients who require it colocation space that meets standards for sensitive compartmented information facilities (SCIFs) managed by Terremark’s Federal Group.  Inside each datacenter, a professional security staff maintains and operates sophisticated surveillance systems, biometric scanners and secured areas for processing of staff, customers and visitors.

A complete suite of services from colocation and connectivity to managed hosting, cloud computing and comprehensive disaster recovery solutions is offered, including solutions utilizing Terremark’s Infinistructure utility computing platform including Enterprise Cloud services.  Built to a power capacity 160 watts per square foot, the NAP of the Capital Region will easily accommodate today’s power requirements for high density computing environments. Terremark offers 100% service level agreements on power and environmentals for the NAP of the Capital Region.

Construction of Third Datacenter at NAP of the Capital Region is Launched

With more than 75 percent of the datacenter space within the NCR campus' existing facilities contracted and a robust pipeline for Terremark's leading-edge IT infrastructure solutions from Federal agencies and large enterprises, construction has commenced on the campus' third 50,000-square-foot facility.  Terremark will initially invest approximately $45 million to build out the facility, which will provide additional world-class datacenter space for colocation, cloud computing, managed hosting, disaster recovery/COOP and secure information services.

Office Building at NAP of the Capital Region Opens

Terremark has opened a 72,000-square-foot headquarters building at the NCR campus. The building includes a 150-seat auditorium built to the Federal government's Physical Security Standards for Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIF) and approximately 50,000 square feet of Class A office space that can be built to SCIF specifications in order to meet specific customer demands.

Along with the highly secure meeting and office space available to Federal government and enterprise customers, NCR's headquarters building will be home to Terremark's newest, state-of-the-art Network Operations Center (NOC) and conference rooms featuring advanced audiovisual and teleconferencing equipment to connect Terremark employees and customers worldwide. The building, which will also house the company's on-campus staff, is equipped with fully redundant backup systems for power and cooling infrastructure.
