Star of Bosphorus is the fortress protecting the data of Turkey and is designed by considering the correlation of 2500 years of seismic activity to maintain operation during a potential earthquake. The whole building of Star of Bosphorus is protected against earthquakes and NGN is the pioneer of the application in Turkey.

Star of Bosphorus, the most advanced datacenter of Turkey prominent with its structural and seismic design in global standards, is a unique facility for corporate customers that prioritize reliability and uninterrupted operation process.

Star of Bosphorus is one of the few buildings in the world that has structural seismic isolation with its design to minimize seismic impact and provides uninterrupted operation and high-standard data security.

Müfit Süer, Vice Chief Executive Officer of NGN, on seismic isolation technology of Star of Bosphorus Datacenter: “We became the pioneer of Turkey with Star of Bosphorus which is designed in line with world-recognized FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) standards and in consideration of the correlation of 2500 years of seismic activities to maintain operation during an earthquake. The whole Star of Bosphorus building is protected against an earthquake with its structure positioned on 138 seismic isolators, eliminating all possible interruptions during a seismic activity. The seismic performance goals we have determined for Star of Bosphorus Datacenter were established beyond typical building constructed with conventional systems and above the goals specified for datacenters designed in accordance with TIER standards. The facility is designed to remain undamaged and maintain operation even during the major earthquake that occurs in almost every 2500 years.”
