Chicago Data Center
Tier III-style redundancy inside an SSAE-18 Type II audited building, with full and partial cabinets about fifteen miles from the Loop.
A Boutique Hall, Engineered Like A Big One
Cindervault's Lombard data hall was designed around concurrent maintainability: every critical path — utility feed, UPS string, generator, cooling loop — has an independent twin. Maintenance happens without touching your load.
Because the facility is boutique rather than bulk, you deal with the engineers who run the building, not a ticket queue three time zones away. Audits, compliance evidence and customer walk-throughs are part of the weekly routine.
What's Included
- Redundant Tier III power and cooling architecture
- SSAE-18 Type II audited controls and evidence on request
- Full 42U cabinets, half cabinets and single-unit placements
- Raised floor with under-floor chilled-water distribution
- Caged suites and private locking cabinets available
- Staging room, crash carts and free parking for your team
"We toured four Chicago facilities. Cindervault was the only one where the person showing us around could answer a power question without calling someone."— Operations Director, regional logistics firm (colocation customer)
From Tour To Live
We map your draw, BTU and growth headroom to the right cabinet geometry.
SSAE-18 report, policies and diagrams for your auditors up front.
Receiving, racking, cabling and burn-in handled by smart hands.
Portal access, monitoring and a named engineer for changes.
Yes. Quarter and half cabinets are the most common starting point, and expansions move within the same hall — usually the same row — so your fiber runs stay short.
Routinely. We provide the SSAE-18 Type II report, network diagrams and access logs, and can host your auditors on site with escort and a workroom.
The Lombard hall is roughly fifteen miles west of the Loop, near I-88 and I-355, with free on-site parking and 24x7 customer access.
