VIRTUS Data Centres (LONDON2)

The LONDON2 facility is a pioneer in London’s data centre market, being the first to deploy groundbreaking fresh air evaporative cooling technology. This innovative approach dramatically reduces energy consumption, enabling the site to achieve an impressive Power Usage Effectiveness of 1.3 with targets below 1.2. By leveraging ambient air, the facility lowers its carbon footprint while delivering significant Total Cost of Ownership reductions for clients.

Scalable Data Hall Configurations

Designed for maximum flexibility, the facility provides 6,000 square feet of whitespace across six distinct data halls. These halls can be subdivided to create a highly customizable environment. Clients can choose anything from a single cabinet in a shared area, to a private cage, or an entire dedicated data hall with tailored power and cooling capacity, allowing the infrastructure to scale with business growth.

Robust Power Infrastructure

The site is supplied with 20 MVA of power infrastructure, with 12.2 MW fully built out to support demanding workloads. LONDON2 supports power densities of up to 40 kW per rack, making it suitable for intensive computing environments. Resilience is ensured through a 2N UPS configuration and N+1 standby power redundancy, providing continuous and stable power delivery.

Uncompromising Uptime and Reliability

VIRTUS delivers a proven 100 percent uptime record supported by a Tier 3 design architecture. Cooling systems operate with N+1 redundancy, maintaining stable thermal conditions even during maintenance or unexpected component failure. This reliability is reinforced by round the clock on site technical support and monitoring teams supervising all critical systems in real time.

Advanced Security and Compliance

Security is implemented through multiple layers, starting with a five meter high perimeter fence and a site location set back from main roads. Access is controlled using biometric authentication and comprehensive CCTV coverage, all overseen by on site security personnel at all times. The facility is certified to ISO 27001 for information security, is PCI DSS compliant, and holds additional ISO certifications covering quality, environmental, and energy management standards.

Real Time Monitoring and Client Tools

Clients benefit from advanced real time monitoring dashboards and intuitive self service tools that allow remote management of infrastructure. On site amenities include dedicated customer rooms, break areas, and cafe spaces integrated into the building. These tools provide transparent insight into power consumption and environmental performance, giving customers full visibility of their assets.

Connectivity and On Site Amenities

Operational since 2014, LONDON2 is a purpose built data centre featuring a dedicated meet me room and connectivity to seven peering networks, ensuring high speed and carrier neutral interconnection. Additional services include remote hands support, secure on site parking, and available office space, creating a complete and practical environment for IT teams and critical equipment.
