Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

A service corridor is a dedicated space within or adjacent to a data centre that allows access to the supporting facilities, such as power, cooling, fire suppression, security, and cabling systems, without interfering with the computer room operations. A service corridor helps to isolate the noise, vibration, heat, and dust generated by the supporting facilities from the sensitive equipment in the computer room. A service corridor also enhances the safety and efficiency of the maintenance and monitoring activities, as well as the flexibility and scalability of the data centre design.

B, for sure. A generic name for pathways? That's exactly what I need in my life. Who needs security and controlled environments when you've got generic pathways, am I right?

I'm going with C. Safety and ventilation for those standby generators? That's what I call a service corridor with a purpose. Plus, it's probably the most exciting option on the list.
