Our Data Centers — the Heart of Everything We Host
Every workload we host — private cloud, hosted desktops and servers — runs on datacenter hardware we own and operate, in carrier-neutral facilities in Southern California.
Engineered for uptime. Watched around the clock by automated monitoring that pages our on-call engineers. And deliberately absent from the map — discretion is part of the security model.
Infrastructure we own. Accountability that ends with us.
Many providers resell a hyperscaler and forward the outage email. CRC Cloud hosts client workloads on hardware we own, in a carrier-neutral Southern California facility, with a separate replication site we operate.
Our infrastructure runs in a professionally operated Southern California facility engineered to a concurrently maintainable design and built for continuous operation: N+1 redundant power and cooling, battery and generator backup, precision cooling, 24/7 on-site staff and six layers of physical security, including biometric access. Its operator holds SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II attestations, ISO 27001 and PCI-DSS certifications and NIST 800-53 (PE) High alignment. The 99.9% uptime service level on hosted systems is a CRC Cloud commitment.
The operator has no sign-in access to our equipment or your data, and our cabinet is locked. Ask us which facility certifications apply and for which periods, and we’ll help you request the reports from the operator.

What runs inside
The compute, storage, and network resources behind hosted desktops, servers, and line-of-business applications — described capability by capability, never vendor by vendor.
CPU & GPU Compute
High-performance processors for demanding applications, plus GPU acceleration for machine learning, data analytics, and visualization workloads.
Memory & All-Flash Storage
High-speed memory and SSD storage arrays with built-in redundancy, connected over dedicated high-speed storage networks (Fibre Channel and iSCSI) — fast access, reliable by design.
Dedicated Servers & VMs
Exclusive physical servers for mission-critical workloads, and right-sized virtual machines with dedicated processing, memory, and storage.
Redundant Connectivity
Broadband infrastructure engineered for redundancy, with diverse bandwidth options and dedicated ultra-low-latency private links for critical applications and large transfers.
Network Security
Dedicated firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention, web application firewalls in front of the application servers we host, and encrypted VPN tunnels for remote teams and branch offices. Our firewall adds machine-learning threat analysis, sandboxing and network detection and response.
Hardened Operations
Hardened operating systems, systematic patching, and managed backup — the unglamorous disciplines that keep environments boring, in the best way.

Six deployment models, one accountable partner
Infrastructure isn’t one-size-fits-all. We design around your compliance, performance, and budget — anchored in Southern California facilities we run our own infrastructure inside, with Multi-Region hosting in a datacenter in another region, arranged when a workload needs distance between the copies.
Data-residency requirement? Regional compliance rule? That’s a design input, not a dealbreaker. Private cloud hosting explains what it costs and how it works.
Single
One of each server your business needs, on infrastructure we own — whatever that set turns out to be once we have looked. The clean, fully managed starting point for most businesses.
Hybrid
Private cloud paired with the on-premises or legacy systems you are keeping, connected securely and managed as one — for the systems that have to stay in the office, or move later.
Multi-Cloud
A second copy of the servers you cannot afford to lose, replicating live and load-balanced. If one fails or gets overloaded, its twin carries the work. You choose which servers get a twin. Priced at +15% on hosted lines.
Multi-Region
The same live redundancy as Multi-Cloud, but with distance between the copies: the second set of servers runs in a datacenter in another region, arranged for your requirement, so no single facility holds both. Priced at +40% on hosted lines.
Colocation
Your own hardware, racked in secure, professionally managed datacenter space with redundant power and connectivity — for equipment you already own and want out of the office.
Dedicated
Your own cabinet in our datacenter. We architect a new system or relocate your existing one into it, and we manage it for you — maximum isolation, still fully managed.
The datacenter, in plain English
A couple of minutes on what “our own infrastructure” actually means — from the team that runs it.
Watched by people. Predicted by AI.
An AI-assisted monitoring layer watches security signals and hardware health across the equipment we own, flagging conditions before they become failures and paging our on-call engineers around the clock. Since integrating predictive analytics, the infrastructure increasingly flags its own problems — machines watch, humans verify.
The physical layer is engineered for continuity: N+1 redundant power and cooling, and a nightly copy of every hosted environment at a second site we operate, ready to start, with an 8-hour recovery target and a failover test every year — so recovery is a procedure, not a scramble.
Why we don’t publish the address
You won’t find our facility locations, our technology partners, or our client list anywhere on this site. That’s not marketing shyness — it’s written policy:
“For enhanced security, we do not publicly list our technology partners or disclose our current data center locations. This approach minimizes potential vulnerabilities and keeps our systems more secure against adversaries.”
Attackers research their targets before they strike. A published map of where your data lives — and what defends it — would be a gift to the wrong people. So the map stays private, and serious prospects get specifics under NDA. The only address we publish is our Newport Beach headquarters.
More on how we think about discretion →Data center FAQ
Where are CRC Cloud’s data centers located?
In Southern California. As a matter of written security policy, we don’t publish exact facility locations — they’re shared with serious prospects under NDA. Our published business address is the Newport Beach headquarters.
What certifications and standards does the datacenter maintain?
Our infrastructure runs in a Southern California facility engineered to a concurrently maintainable design, whose operator holds SOC 1 and SOC 2 Type II attestations, ISO 27001 and PCI-DSS certifications and NIST 800-53 (PE) High alignment, with N+1 redundant power and cooling. The 99.9% uptime service level on hosted systems is a CRC Cloud commitment.
Do you own the infrastructure, or resell someone else’s cloud?
We own and operate it. Client workloads run on our hardware in a carrier-neutral Southern California facility with a separate replication site we operate — no hyperscaler middlemen, and accountability that ends with us.
Can CRC Cloud host workloads outside Southern California?
Yes. Multi-Region means the same live, load-balanced redundancy with distance between the copies — the second set of servers runs in a datacenter in another region, arranged for your requirement and scoped at discovery, priced at +40% on hosted lines. Our own facilities are in Southern California today; where a compliance or data-residency rule requires a region we cannot serve, we say so at discovery rather than quietly subcontracting it.
How is the facility protected against outages?
N+1 redundant power and cooling in a concurrently maintainable design, automated monitoring that pages our on-call engineers around the clock, and disaster recovery from a second site we operate, in a separate access-controlled building in the same region — so a bad day at one facility is a recovery we run from the other, against our 8-hour target.
