These include the ANSI/TIA-942-C certification for resilience, security, and quality, and the EDGE certification for green buildings.
The ANSI/TIA-942-C certification, awarded by EPI Certification Pte Ltd, is considered a gold standard for data center resiliency. NARRA1 received a Rating-3, indicating it is a concurrent maintainable data center, meaning it has multiple redundant capacity components and distribution paths.
Additionally, the EDGE certification, developed by the International Finance Corporation, acknowledges buildings that achieve significant savings in energy, water use, and embodied carbon.
NARRA1 was recognized for its resource-efficient design, including an innovative liquid cooling system and a market-leading Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) of 1.193.
Vic Barrios, country manager for Digital Edge in the Philippines, highlighted that these certifications bolster the Philippines' position in Southeast Asia's digital infrastructure landscape, attracting leading technology companies to the region.
These achievements underscore Digital Edge's commitment to enhancing the Philippines' digital economy.
