Our data center offers a comprehensive portfolio of hosting services designed to provide maximum value through flexibility. Whether you require a single server, partial cabinets, or dedicated racks, our infrastructure supports your specific space requirements. This broad range of solutions ensures that as your business grows, the opportunity to expand within our facility is always available, providing long term peace of mind.
To mitigate physical threats, we employ a multi layered security strategy that begins at the site perimeter. The facility is protected by anti ram bollards and monitored by 24/7 CCTV and manned guarding. Access is strictly controlled via a mantrap entry system, requiring pre booked appointments, government issued ID, and biometric or card access controls. These rigorous standards allow us to pass thorough audits with flying colors.
Beyond physical barriers, we maintain a sharp focus on digital integrity through the deployment of the latest security appliances. Our technical team includes dedicated specialists who implement two factor authentication and manage robust internal processes to protect client data. By partnering exclusively with leading technology providers, we ensure that every deployment meets the highest industry standards for data security.
We utilize a managed bandwidth service, which offers superior speed and consistency compared to the bandwidth neutral models used by other providers. As members of the London Internet Exchange, Europe’s largest exchange point, and through partnerships with major international providers, we guarantee rapid and reliable access to your data. Our facility includes a dedicated Meet Me Room to facilitate seamless peering and network interconnection.
The facility is engineered for high density performance and reliability, featuring a total building size of 1,700 sq.m. with 930 sq.m. of whitespace. We operate with a Power Usage Effectiveness of 1.4, supported by a fully built out 2 MW power capacity. To prevent downtime, we employ 2N redundancy across our UPS systems, cooling infrastructure, and standby power, ensuring the environment remains stable even during maintenance or hardware failures.
Operating since 2008, our data center is a Tier 3 design facility that adheres to stringent international standards, including ISO 27001, ISO 9001, and ISO 22301. We are fully PCI DSS compliant, making us an ideal partner for sensitive financial data. Safety is further bolstered by a double interlocked gas based fire suppression system, providing automated protection for your hardware without the risks associated with water based systems.
