Srei Sahaj has one of the largest network of around 23,000 VLEs or Common  Service Centers setup under the National e-Governance plan of Government of  India. Srei Sahaj built this tier-III data center in partnership with CISCO and HP. The major objective is to provide sustainable digital access to rural population  by means of IT enablement. With an area of approximately 2000 sq.ft, the  datacenter houses racks and equipment with an ability to cater to 25,000 CSCs.  Some of the salient features of the data centre are CISCO powered network with  99.5% availability, connectivity with multiple ISPs, 24×7 NOC monitoring, IDS and IPS installed, Smoke detection and fire suppression integrated with Building  Management System, 24×7 onsite security all round the year and  motion-detection for lighting and CCTV coverage. One of the other major  objectives of this data center was to have secure transactions. Right from the  inception, the company wanted to have in-house capability to serve the end  customer, uninterrupted. This would ensure better control and predictability of  services offered to VLEs. In line with the above, an in-house team of System  Administrators and Network Administrators was developed. Today there is the  capability to manage, maintain and enhance Data Center capabilities and ensure uptime of 99.5 per cent.
