3. Data Center Power Requirements

Requirement	Specification
Utility Feeds	Minimum of two independent utility feeds from separate substations. Each feed capable of supporting 100% of the data center’s power load. Automatic transfer switches (ATS) for seamless switchover between feeds with UL 1008 certification (or regional equivalent)
UPS	- N+1 redundancy for UPS systems- Minimum of 15 minutes runtime at full load
Generators	N+1 redundancy for generator systems. Generators must be able to support 100% of the data center’s power load. Minimum of 48 hours of on-site fuel storage at full load. Automatic transfer to generator power within 10 seconds of utility failure
Power Distribution	Redundant power distribution paths (2N) from utility to rack level. Redundant Power Distribution Units (PDUs) in each rack. Remote power monitoring and management capabilities at rack level
Testing and Maintenance	Monthly generator tests under load for a minimum of 30 minutes. Quarterly full-load tests of the entire backup power system, including UPS and generators. Annual full-facility power outage test (coordinated with Runpod). Regular thermographic scanning of electrical systems. Detailed maintenance logs for all power equipment. 24/7 on-site facilities team for immediate response to power issues
Monitoring and Alerting	Real-time monitoring of all power systems. Automated alerting for any power anomalies or threshold breaches
Capacity Planning	Maintain a minimum of 20% spare power capacity for future growth. Annual power capacity audits and forecasting
Fire Suppression	Maintain datacenter fire suppression systems in compliance with NFPA 75 and 76 (or regional equivalent)

4. Network Requirements

Requirement	Specification
Internet Connectivity	Minimum of two diverse and redundant internet circuits from separate providers. Each connection should be capable of supporting 100% of the data center’s bandwidth requirements. BGP routing implemented for automatic failover between circuit providers. 100 Gbps minimum total bandwidth capacity
Speed Requirements	Preferred: >= 10 Gbps sustained upload/download speed per server. Minimum: >= 5 Gbps sustained upload/download speed per server. Speed measurements should be based on sustained throughput over a 60 second interval during a typical workload
Core Infrastructure	Redundant core switches in a high-availability configuration (e.g., stacking, VSS, or equivalent)
Distribution Layer	Redundant distribution switches with multi-chassis link aggregation (MLAG) or equivalent technology. Minimum 100 Gbps uplinks to core switches
Access Layer	Redundant top-of-rack switches in each cabinet. Minimum 100 Gbps server connections for high-performance compute nodes
DDoS Protection	Must have a DDoS mitigation solution, either on-premises or on-demand cloud-based
Quality of service	Maintain network performance within the following parameters: Network utilization levels must remain below 80% on any link during peak hours. Packet loss must not exceed 0.1% (1 in 1000) on any network segment. P95 round-trip time (RTT) within the data center should not exceed 4ms. P95 jitter within the datacenter should not exceed 3ms
Testing and Maintenance	Regular failover testing of all redundant components (minimum semi-annually). Annual full-scale disaster recovery test. Maintenance windows for network updates and patches, with minimal service disruption scheduled at least 1 week in advance
Capacity Planning	Maintain a minimum of 40% spare network capacity for future growth. Regular network performance audits and capacity forecasting
