For Colocation Providers

Your tenants change their loads. Your SLAs don't.

You can't control what goes into your tenants' cages. But you're still accountable for the environment around them. Rack-level data gives you proof of performance, early warning on density issues, and the documentation to resolve every SLA conversation with facts — not assumptions.

The Problem

You're accountable for an environment you can't fully control.

Tenants change their equipment, add density, and modify their setups — without always telling you. Your SLAs don't update when they do. Without rack-level data, you're managing cooling performance on assumptions, resolving disputes without evidence, and finding out about problems only after they've already affected someone's uptime.

How It Works

  • Step 1: Place System

    Place the AUDIT-BUDDY system in the contested area.

  • Step 2: Collect Data

    Capture Temperature, Humidity and Dew Point data as often and as long as you need.

  • Step 3: Validate Independently

    Get independent information on what’s happening so you or your client can take corrective action.

Case Study: Resolving a High Flow Tile Dispute

In April 2018, a Colocation provider was concerned about running out of reserve cooling because a Tenant had put in multiple high-flow tiles. The Colo used Purkay Labs’ On-Site Assessment service to determine if the high-flow tiles were necessary. Purkay Labs use their AUDIT-BUDDY system and a TSI Balometer to measure the inlet temperatures and CFM measurements across the facility and found that the Tenant was significantly overcooling the facility.
