About the Butler Data Center
Butler University's 1,500 square foot data center opened in 2009
and houses all major systems including BigDawg, Butler's supercomputer, and
connections to iLight and the Internet.
Butler strives to use efficient and environmentally friendly equipment in
the data center. A carefully engineered power infrastructure, use
of recyclable materials, heat recovery, and high efficiency servers
are a few of the ways Butler reduces the data center's
environmental impact.
Redundant cooling, uninterruptible power supply, diesel
generator, and gas fire suppression protect the data center from
unplanned downtime.

& systems supported by the Butler data center.
