IDawn Technologies

IDawn Technologies was first founded and registered in 2005 by Tharindu Meepegama as a Technology Company involved in Software and Web Development which subsequently transitioned into providing Systems Integration (SI) Services from 2010. During the time as an SI, IDT was involved in many projects across over 180 Clients in Sri Lanka including Multinational Companies which were initiating operations in Sri Lanka. In 2012, IDT shifted gears. At first, the company entered the Data Center world as a subcontractor. Quickly IDT started working directly with top clients, delivering design builds of over 20 Enterprise Data Centers to various Government, Blue Chip Companies, and SMEs in Sri Lanka. At the same time, due to a keen interest in the Data Center Market in Sri Lanka and globally, Tharindu started personally engaging in training and certification for Data Center Design Consultancy in March 2013. He was one of the first four people in the world to achieve the prestigious Certified TIA-942 Internal Auditor Certification in July of 2014, making him one of the longest-serving certified TIA-942 Auditors in the world. Based on this certification, he and the IDT Team was engaged by a Japanese Company that provides Data Center Consultancy Services worldwide named “Global Data Center Engineering” (GDCE) where Tharindu and the entire IDT Team were exposed to Large Scale Data Center Projects throughout Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. Thanks to IDT’s superior performance on the projects that were engaged, Tharindu was made a permanent part of the GDCE Team as well while continuing his work as the Founder and Lead Consultant at IDT. As of Q3, 2020 Tharindu is now also a Sitting Member of the TIA TR.42 Engineering Committee (which is the committee which overlooks the TIA-942 Standard) and is actively involved in several subcommittees which are actively contributing to the new TIA Edge data Center Standards and the next Revision of the TIA-942 Standard.
