Asanti Datacentres Ltd. (Asanti Leeds) Data Center

Situated just 8 miles from Leeds city centre, a mere 20 minute drive, this facility perfectly balances accessibility with risk mitigation. By positioning itself outside the immediate city core, the center avoids the typical constraints and hazards of urban infrastructure while capitalising on its proximity to the M62, M1, and A1. Furthermore, its location directly on the main fibre route ensures exceptional data speeds. This regional edge facility offers 15000 sq. ft. of secure whitespace, making it an ideal partner for the Manchester data center to create a highly resilient primary and disaster recovery solution.

Reliability is the cornerstone of this facility, featuring a 2N+1 electrical infrastructure and a 100% power uptime SLA. The site utilizes UPS redundancy and standby power systems to ensure critical operations never falter. Beyond mere reliability, the facility is powered by 100% certified green energy, allowing businesses to meet their sustainability goals. Clients can also benefit from flexible commercial models, choosing between fixed fee or pay as you go power consumption based on their specific operational needs.

Maintaining the integrity of high performance hardware requires precision environmental management. The Leeds facility utilizes an N+1 cooling system that includes redundant electrical and pipework configurations to prevent any single point of failure. This fully controlled environment ensures that temperature and humidity levels remain optimal around the clock. By providing a stable climate for the 15000 sq. ft. of whitespace, the center protects sensitive equipment from thermal stress and extends the lifecycle of hosted infrastructure.

Connectivity is both carrier neutral and high capacity, offering a 100% uptime SLA with low latency performance. The site features diverse fibre ingress points and diverse routes from carrier and Meet Me racks as standard, connecting directly to major UK internet hubs and Tier 1 providers. A standout feature is the Cloud Connect service, which provides direct access to major public cloud platforms. This ensures that sensitive data can be transferred to the cloud without ever hitting the public internet, significantly enhancing security and speed.

The facility is protected by multi layered security protocols to ensure the safety of critical data and hardware. Security measures include 24/7/365 on site staff, full coverage CCTV surveillance, and rigorous door access controls. To provide peace of mind regarding operational quality and data privacy, the center maintains prestigious certifications, specifically ISO9001:2015 for quality management and ISO27001:2022 for information security. These standards guarantee that both the physical environment and the internal processes meet international benchmarks for excellence.

Whether a business requires a shared rackspace footprint, partial cabinets, or full cabinets, the facility offers versatile hosting options tailored to various scales. Beyond the physical space, the site includes dedicated build rooms, storage, and work areas for client use. To minimize the need for client travel, 24/7/365 on site technical staff are available to provide Remote Hands support, handling everything from basic troubleshooting to complex hardware tasks. This comprehensive support structure allows IT teams to step away from maintenance and focus on more strategic, high value projects.
