Centrilogic sells this building as its Greater Toronto data centre, but the address is 7445 Tranmere Drive in Mississauga, out in the industrial belt north of Pearson, and the company calls it the first of the three data centres it now holds in that city - the others sit on Traders Boulevard East and Robert Speck Parkway. Interconnection is what a buyer should test first. A single network takes service at Tranmere Drive, Centrilogic's own AS14453, with nothing else on-net and no TorIX presence, so any peering plan starts with transport to a downtown Toronto building. The company describes the site as engineered to Tier 3+ standards with some Tier 4 attributes; that is a design statement, not an award, and no Uptime Institute entry exists for Centrilogic at any of its seven facilities. Floor area and power draw go unpublished, which makes a site visit the practical way to size a deployment here.

Engineered to Tier 3+ standards, some Tier 4 attributes
One - Centrilogic's own Canadian network, AS14453. There is no exchange on the floor.
What does Centrilogic's Tier 3+ description actually mean?
It is the company's own account of how the site was engineered, not a certification. The Uptime Institute awards recorded in Mississauga belong to CGI, Teranet and Cyxtera.
How many data centres does Centrilogic run in Mississauga?
Three: Tranmere Drive, 215 Traders Boulevard East and 2 Robert Speck Parkway. Tranmere is the one it describes as its first.
How would a tenant at Tranmere Drive reach TorIX?
Over a circuit to a Toronto interconnection site. TorIX has no presence at Tranmere Drive, so exchange traffic leaves the building on transport.
