The Uptime Institute formed the Uptime Institute Network in 1993 to directly address and resolve issues affecting continuous site infrastructure availability. The Network’s mission is to identify, quantify, and improve infrastructure availability by facilitating information exchange among members, as well as between members and the Institute’s faculty of industry experts. The Network (North America, Europe, Middle East, & Africa [EMEA], Asia Pacific [APAC] and Brasil) are a consortium of member companies responsible for the most critical data centers worldwide. Through unique member-driven collaborative learning, members of the Network have steadily achieved higher levels of availability.
