OCP is a collaborative community focused on redesigning hardware technology to support the growing demands on compute infrastructure — with an OCP Ready Certification.
The company’s Amsterdam data centre is poised to deliver the enhanced flexibility and performance of OCP solutions alongside its existing technology, as the only OCP Ready data centre in Continental Europe to receive this certification.
“The Open Compute Project is a movement that continues to gain traction across the data center industry — and for good reason,” said Oliver Menzel, CEO of maincubes.
“It’s more important than ever that data-hungry organisations, and the data centres that support them, be able to operate with the greatest performance and efficiency.
“This certification signifies our ability to meet those needs, and we’re thrilled to have the trust of the OCP Community behind us as we seek to build a better digital future.”
OCP solutions in the data centre deliver a range of advantages, including flexibility and improved compute density.
The guidelines for OCP Ready certification were created by the OCP’s Data Centre Facility Project Team and serve as a reference for data centre operators and tenants looking to understand the requirements for deploying OCP gear in their IT space.
maincubes has also been accepted into the OCP Colo Solution Provider (SP) program, designed to recognise organisations with data centre facilities which have met the OCP Colo Guidelines.
“The entire maincubes team have been strong champions of open designs. Since their start with the OCP Experience Centre they have been proactive in working within the OCP Community,” added Steve Helvie, VP of Channel for OCP.
“Now with their AMS01 facility achieving OCP Ready status, maincubes provides those enterprises looking to adopt OCP designs with a data centre optimised for the new wave of open infrastructure.”
