The Radore Data Center, established on a total area of 3,020 m² with 1,250 m² of white space and having a capacity of 10,000 servers, is located on the -4th floor of MetroCity Mall in Istanbul Levent.
MetroCity Mall, which opened for service in 2003, was built on the Metro line and is located at the center of Turkey's internet infrastructure. This enables the Radore Data Center to be strategically positioned in terms of internet connectivity and directly connected to Internet Service Providers (ISPs).
The Radore Data Center is located on the -4th floor of MetroCity Mall in Istanbul Levent. Thanks to this location, the Radore Data Center is situated in one of Istanbul's most important business centers and is directly connected to Internet Service Providers (ISPs). This enables service providers to offer faster and more reliable internet services to their customers.
The total power capacity of the Radore Data Center is 3.9 MW, including white spaces, air conditioning infrastructure, office areas, and backup power. Power is provided through 3 distribution transformers owned by Radore, two of which are main and one is backup. These transformers are connected to the medium voltage ring network and provide redundant power supply from two points.
The Synchronization Control Panel monitors generator and transformer transitions in real-time; it performs automatic switching in case of voltage, frequency, or fault conditions. During the maximum 30-second transition period, the UPS system activates to provide uninterrupted power. UPS battery groups have a minimum 15-minute backup capacity.
Against power outages, 3 units of 1,875 kVA Caterpillar (CAT) diesel generators, one of which is redundant, are ready to activate. This system is supported by 3 units of 3.5-ton fuel tanks owned by Radore and 1 unit of 30-ton shared fuel tank owned by MetroCity. A total of 36 hours of uninterrupted power supply capacity is provided.
At Radore, the UPS infrastructure is configured with 5 groups (N+1) of systems, one of which is redundant:
Data center areas, office and network infrastructure are protected with dual-line (A-B) power supply. Line A is fed from 1st and 2nd groups, Line B from 3rd group UPS systems. Office and network infrastructure is supported by 5th group UPS systems. Power to server cabinets is transmitted through redundant busbar lines that are resistant to natural disasters and prevent cable clutter. Additionally, cabinets are also backed up with dual PDU (Power Distribution Unit) fed from two separate UPS groups.
The Radore Data Center uses 'free cooling' technology for air conditioning. This method utilizes the low temperature of the external environment to reduce cooling costs and ensure energy efficiency.
The infrastructure consists of 2 x 840 kW + 1 x 870 kW chillers, precision indoor unit air conditioners, and pump systems. Hot air at 30–35°C is drawn in by precision air conditioners and cooled to 18–27°C with cold water from chillers, then directed directly to server systems. During winter months, chiller compressors are deactivated, achieving up to 70% energy savings through natural cooling. With a 1.37 PUE value, Radore is above the industry average in energy efficiency. The air conditioning infrastructure is fully N+1 redundant, with a total of 5,850,000 BTU active and 2,900,000 BTU backup cooling capacity.
The Radore Data Center is located in MetroCity Mall and is monitored digitally and physically 24/7, with all access recorded. Unauthorized entries are completely prevented outside business hours, while energy and air conditioning systems are located on a separate floor and accessible only to authorized Radore personnel.
During visits, Operations Center personnel always accompany customers. In addition to physical security, the facility performs fire early detection with Honeywell air sampling detectors; automatic extinguishing is provided with Siemens, 3M Novec 1230, and FM200 gas systems. All data center areas are continuously monitored with water and humidity sensors, and risks are managed proactively.
The Radore Data Center is directly connected to Internet Service Providers (ISPs) with a 10 Gbps connection capacity. This ensures that our customers' data traffic is transmitted quickly and reliably. Additionally, the Radore Data Center is connected to multiple Internet Service Providers (ISPs), ensuring fast and reliable data transmission for our customers.
The Radore Infrastructure Team is responsible for monitoring, tracking, and maintaining energy, air conditioning, and security systems. All infrastructure components are continuously monitored through daily, weekly, and monthly periodic procedures.
The Network Team, on the other hand, continuously monitors the backbone infrastructure with PRTG software 24/7 to ensure uninterrupted internet access. Incoming and outgoing data flow is monitored with Sflow, while server status is monitored with Argus.
