Segra (DC74) Data Center

DC74 operates high-standard Tier III data centers in Charlotte, designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern enterprises. Their service portfolio is diverse, offering SSAE 16 and PCI-DSS compliant environments for various hosting needs. These include standard and high density colocation, private cloud deployments, and comprehensive disaster recovery and business continuity solutions, ensuring that mission-critical data remains secure and accessible.

Distinguishing itself from traditional "retail" data centers, DC74 utilizes a wholesale approach that empowers clients to maintain full control over their infrastructure. This model is specifically designed to eliminate the common conflict of interest between a company’s internal IT experts and data center staff. By acting as a supportive backbone rather than a competitor, DC74 allows IT leaders, engineers, and architects to manage their systems autonomously.

Because DC74 aims to remain "invisible" to a tenant’s end users, it has become a preferred partner for System Integrators and Managed Services Providers (MSPs). Their core focus remains on delivering high quality facility infrastructure and premium data center space. To assist tenants without overstepping, they offer on-demand "remote hands" services, providing a perfect balance of professional physical support and technical independence for the tenant.

The facility serves as a vital nexus for telecommunications, featuring a spacious Meet Me Room (MMR) and an abundant white space layout. DC74 provides a welcoming environment for carriers to host Points of Presence (PoPs) and perform critical interconnects. This robust ecosystem currently supports seven peering networks and multiple network providers, creating a dense connectivity fabric that benefits all hosted tenants.

Constructed as a purpose-built, sole-tenant facility in 2012, the data center spans a total of 28,000 square feet. It features 14,032 square feet of fully built-out white space, which is designed to be expandable to meet growing demand. The facility offers a wide range of spatial configurations, including full and partial cabinets, shared rack space, private cages, individual suites, and custom footprints to accommodate various hardware scales.

Reliability is anchored by a Tier III design and a fully built-out 2.5 MW power framework. To ensure maximum uptime, the facility employs N+1 redundancy across all critical systems, including UPS units, cooling infrastructure, and standby power generators. This rigorous engineering ensures that the data center maintains operational continuity even during equipment maintenance or external power fluctuations.

DC74 maintains a highly secure environment through 24/7 on-site security staff, CCTV surveillance, and multi-factor authentication involving biometric and card access controls. The facility is heavily certified, meeting standards for SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS, and utilizes a dry-pipe pre-action fire suppression system for hardware safety. Additionally, the site provides professional amenities such as conference rooms, breakrooms, and a loading bay to support the daily needs of on-site technical teams.
