Name/Id: ACF1474 / Microsoft Managed Control 1474 Category: Physical and Environmental Protection Title: Emergency Power | Long-Term Alternate Power Supply - Minimal Operational Capability Ownership: Microsoft Description: The organization provides a long-term alternate power supply for the information system that is capable of maintaining minimally required operational capability in the event of an extended loss of the primary power source. Requirements: In the event of an extended loss of the primary power source, Azure implements a long-term alternate power supply for the information system that can maintain minimally required operational capability. When power fails or drops to an unacceptable voltage level, Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) systems instantly kick in and take over the power load. This provides enough power for running the servers until the generators can take over. Emergency generators provide back-up power for extended outages and for planned maintenance and can operate the datacenter with on-site fuel reserves in the event of a natural disaster. Azure maintains diesel generator at many of its datacenters. Backup generators are used when necessary to help maintain grid stability or in extraordinary repair, and maintenance situations that require us to take our datacenters off the power grid. Azure datacenters are designed with at least an n+1 configuration for electrical and cooling systems. Azure datacenters maintain sufficient onsite fuel storage to operate for approximately 48 hours. Alternate refueling agreements are required in order to ensure a fuel supply is available in the event of a long term utility power loss. |
