DCspine allows our customers to go live faster and to adapt easier to changing IT infrastructure demand from the maincubes datacenter.”
Similar vision
DCspine and maincubes have a very complementary vision. maincubes positions itself as a carrier neutral datacenter with a strong focus on Open Compute. This Open Compute principle fits seamlessly with the Open Networking principles that DCspine is based on. The principles of these movements have strong focus on the seamless interconnection between different parties, creating increased flexibility, efficiency, and scalability and allowing customers to achieve better performance and faster innovation.
OCP Ready
As an OCP Ready™ datacenter, maincubes AMS01 delivers OCP's enhanced flexibility and performance alongside existing advanced technology, higher power densities in kW, and improved energy efficiency. maincubes builds on its promise to drive the adoption of OCP and innovation for datacenters. The datacenter in Schiphol-Rijk is also the location of the European OCP Experience Center, where CIOs, CTO's, ICT managers, and datacenter managers can experience for themselves the benefits of OCP principles for their organizations. In the Experience Center, they can also test and try out OCP solutions for their specific situations.
