By renovating a four-decade-old, low-slung office building, RiCloud took a sustainable approach to creating a new data center while improving its curb appeal.Looking to make a splash with its first North American facilities, data-storage company RiCloud acquired what was a vacant, 80,000-square-foot office building near San Jose’s southeastern border in 2017. Five years later, the building now houses data-storage equipment with a capacity of 10 megawatts of data.
For RiCloud, a division of Hong Kong-based Yuxing InfoTech Investment Holdings Ltd., that meant reinforcing and redesigning much of the building to both clear vertical space for the data storage equipment and withstand the additional loads of the equipment in the possible event of an earthquake. RiCloud also included environmental and decorative touches as well. With cooling equipment paramount to keeping the data systems running, the company adopted a zero water-use refrigeration system that RiCloud estimates will save about 100,000 gallons of water per year, which is about equal to what a typical U.S. family of four uses.
Additionally, RiCloud updated the building to feature floor-to-ceiling lobby windows and a communal area featuring an LED lighting area that’s designed to resemble a circuit board. In all, RiCloud spent about $100 million renovating the property. For context, that’s twice as much as Eagle Canyon Capital is spending to renovate and rebrand what was the 805-room Fairmont San Jose into the recently reopened Signia by Hilton.
