IDCA Certifies 1018 AI-Data Centers and Hexacore Protean Microchip
Washington, DC – January 20, 2025 – International Data Center Authority (IDCA) has confirmed that 1018 Data Centers and its Hexacore technology has received G-level and SDS certifications, based on G3 and G4 mission critical levels.SDS audits incorporate and build upon IDCA's existing Grade-Level (G-Level) certifications, which rate applications, platforms, IT systems, sites, and topology layers.
“The SDS certification programs address the essential issues involved with designing, building, and operating a modern digital infrastructure platforms in this AI-driven age,”said IDCA Head of North America, Kurtis Frisien. “We are very pleased to announce that Hexacore Protean microchip is now certified by us. Their customers can be assured that their technology performs at the critical level, scale, and scope of the environment they require.”
“Being certified by IDCA proves how powerful our technology is and what we can truly deliver to the data center industry,” said 1018 Data Centers Chief Strategist Joshua Mosshart. “Powered by sibling company Hexacore microprocessors, which run 95% cooler and require 91% less power than current industry-leading processors, 1018 data centers minimize heat-related wear and tear and allow for equipment to be integrated into and operated out of pre-fabricated environments.”
SDS Components
The System component of an SDS audit evaluates and certifies tools, systems, components and technologies across the application ecosystem from software applications to virtual and physical IT infrastructure, site, and facility infrastructure equipment.
The Design component offers design, concept, and architecture certification routes for complex systems, tools, software, and infrastructure across the application, compute, platform, IT infrastructure, site facility infrastructure, site, and topology.
The Service component evaluates and certifies service delivery, operations, management, and maintenance certification for quality, reliability, security, efficiency, safety, and effectiveness of such services across the application, compute, platform, IT infrastructure, site facility infrastructure, site, and topology.
