Level 4: Unlocked

DCOS 4 CERTIFICATION

Ilkari Unlocks DCOS Level 4 to Power the Next Phase of Digital Infrastructure

 

Ilkari has achieved what no other public, commercial data centre in Latin America has: DCOS Maturity Level 4 certification. Issued by EPI, this milestone marks a regional first for operational excellence—and positions Ilkari as one of the few providers ready for what’s next.

 

Where most stop at infrastructure design, Ilkari has certified design, build, and operations, backing performance claims with globally recognised standards.

 

“DCOS Level 4 isn’t just a certification—it’s a promise we deliver precision and resilience at every layer,” said Shane Paterson, CEO of Ilkari.

Built for What’s Next

 

Ilkari’s data centre in the Tocancipá Free Trade Zone near Bogotá, Colombia, is designed to evolve with the digital economy. It now meets three international benchmarks:

 

  • DCOS Level 4 – Operational maturity across planning, controls, and incident response

 

  • TIA-942-C Rated-3 – Infrastructure resilience

 

  • SS 564 – Sustainability standard recognising hydropower-driven operations

 

“Operations are where it all plays out,” said Bob Wright, Chief Data Centre Officer. “Level 4 shows we don’t just design for performance-we run it, measure it, and improve it, daily.”

Powering the AI Era

 

The age of AI is redefining infrastructure. Workloads are more volatile. Power demands are multiplying.

 

Ilkari’s internal benchmarks show that AI servers can draw up to 3x more power than standard systems, with sustained loads of 15 kW per rack emerging as the new normal. Its newly deployed high-density pod is engineered for this shift—offering scalable capacity, thermal stability, and rack-level metering for precise control.

 

But here’s the deeper story: DCOS Level 4 is what makes that performance trustworthy. High-powered gear means nothing without disciplined operations behind it.

From Infrastructure to Advantage

 

Ilkari’s offering spans three critical pillars:

 

  • Data Centre Services – Colocation, connectivity, smart and remote hands

 

  • Domain Name Services – Delivered via Okens Domains, covering portfolio management, WHOIS protection, digital intelligence, and brokerage

 

  • Private Cloud – Built for customers needing control and compliance outside the hyperscaler stack

 

Together, they form a strategic infrastructure foundation for sovereign, AI-driven, and compliance-focused digital businesses.

A New Standard

 

In a region where most providers still operate at 5 kW per rack, Ilkari is stepping forward, with the discipline and certification to support tomorrow’s demands.

 

DCOS Level 4 is more than a badge. It’s a system of readiness-one that ensures performance under pressure and trust at scale.
