Centrin: Yantai

Yantai Centrin Data Systems, Centrin's first wholly owned subsidiary, financed and built the campus as its first large data center and still runs it. Centrin based the design on its Beijing facility and built it to the Chinese GB 50174 Class A standard and TIA-942 Tier 4, with 2N power distribution and N+1 cooling. The first phase has seven buildings: a central machine room building, a management and monitoring building, a power plant building, guest and apartment buildings and a central canteen. The master plan allows for more than three times the first phase's floor area.

Customers include Hengfeng Bank, Bank of Yantai, Huahai Property Insurance and the Yantai development zone administration. Centrin also runs e-government, smart city and industrial IoT services from the campus with Inspur, Huawei, Neusoft and Tencent Cloud.
