SDS1 occupies Zela Hahar 35 in Modi'in-Maccabim-Re'ut, midway between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, and is the flagship room of SDS Data Service Ltd, whose parent is the engineering firm Shonfeld Engineering Ltd. Seven networks take transit or peering from the hall, and no exchange fabric sits on site, so traffic to IL-IX runs from the group's Beit Yehoshua building or over private circuits. The Uptime Institute award attached here is precise in scope: Shonfeld Engineering holds a Tier IV Certification of Design Documents covering the SDS data centre in Israel. That attests the design package rather than the constructed building, and it brings no Operational Sustainability or management element with it. Ownership may be about to shift - Jefferies has been appointed to sell a stake of 20 to 30 per cent in the data centre arm.
A Tier IV Certification of Design Documents, held by Shonfeld Engineering Ltd. It attests the design package; no constructed-facility or operational award sits behind it.
How many networks can be reached from SDS1?
Seven, on the room's own carrier presence. IL-IX is not on site - the exchange sits at the group's Beit Yehoshua facility instead.
Which company owns SDS1?
SDS Data Service Ltd, the data centre arm of Shonfeld Engineering Ltd, which Yossi Shonfeld owns. Jefferies has been appointed to sell a 20 to 30 per cent stake in that business.
Which other buildings does SDS run?
SDS3 at Beit Yehoshua, which carries the IL-IX exchange, and SDS4 at Petach Tikva.
How would a buyer start a conversation about space at SDS1?
With SDS Data Service directly. The company sells from its own three Israeli buildings, and Modi'in is the one the Tier IV design certification attaches to.
