[AusNOG] DC - Sydney City - Bond St

[Taylor, Matthew]

People's responses were pretty much correct, but just to clear up the details....

Pacnet have been in a large suite on Level 2 of Global Switch pretty much since day dot of that facility, somewhere near 10 years now.

Pacnet also had a long term data centre facility on Level 2 at 20 Bond St and this lease also housed the Sydney sales office and NOC.

In the latter half of 2010 Pacnet took over what was the old Commonwealth Bank DR data centre at 133 Liverpool St which is under the Catholic Archdiocese office tower. Levels 1 thru 3 of this concrete (and window-less) bunker were completely stripped bare and a brand new data centre was fitted out.

The customers and core network previously located at level 2, 20 Bond St were then relocated into Level 1 of this new data centre during Jan-April 2011. The NOC and data centre team also moved there while the sales office moved to new office space in York St.

The then empty lease at Level 2, 20 Bond St was subsequently gutted including the former data centre space.

Quick a nice facility. They have built out another floor that is mostly empty.

I thought Pacnet moved to Global Switch?

I work in Bond St, don't recall there's a DC here. To be fair, we just moved here about 2 years ago.

Is that the space Pacnet used to occupy before they moved to Liverpool
St? If so, I'd be interested in this too. Surely CBD space like that
wouldn't sit idle for long.

Was that the one below ground in 20 Bond?  It looks like PacNet were in L2, 20 Bond, but I don't recall there ever being a datacenter on level 2.

The one on B3 was an interesting datacenter, especially given that the Tank Stream runs *above* it.  The ASX found this out the hard way when it flooded once.  When the ASX moved out and Macquarie Bank moved in we had the majority of the datacenter wrapped in a bladder to avoid that happening again.

The bladder worked well to stop the water, but not to stop the roof from shaking and the music filtering through every time the gym on the floor above had a aerobics session... :)
