VIRTUS Data Centres (LONDON9)
VIRTUS LONDON9 is a flagship facility situated on the established VIRTUS Data Centre Data Center in Slough, England. As a purpose built facility, it is designed to handle large scale enterprise needs, offering over 10,000 m² of net technical whitespace. The site is a critical hub for organizations requiring a high density environment within the London metro area, combining a massive physical footprint with the sophisticated infrastructure necessary for modern digital operations.
Power Capacity and Efficiency
The facility is engineered for high performance computing, delivering a robust 24 MW of total IT load. It supports a maximum power density of up to 40 kW per rack, making it ideal for power hungry deployments such as AI and big data analytics. Despite this high output, LONDON9 maintains a strong focus on energy efficiency with a Power Usage Effectiveness of 1.3. This is achieved through advanced cooling and power management systems that balance performance with environmental responsibility.
Redundancy and Reliability
To ensure continuous availability, LONDON9 employs a comprehensive redundancy framework aligned with Tier 3 design standards. The power infrastructure features 2N UPS redundancy, ensuring seamless failover without interruption. Cooling systems and standby power generators operate on an N plus 1 redundancy model, allowing the facility to remain fully operational during maintenance activities or unexpected component failures.
Customization and Colocation Options
LONDON9 offers exceptional flexibility to meet diverse business requirements. Customers can select from shared rackspace, full cabinets, secure cages, private suites, or entire dedicated data halls. This scalable approach enables organizations to grow over time while leveraging Remote Hands services for onsite technical support without maintaining a permanent local presence.
Defense in Depth Security
Security at LONDON9 follows a strict defense in depth strategy designed to protect both physical and digital assets. The campus perimeter is fully secured and monitored by continuous CCTV surveillance, while internal access is governed by biometric authentication controls. The site is staffed by onsite security personnel around the clock and safeguarded by automated fire suppression systems. These measures are supported by global certifications including ISO 27001 and PCI DSS compliance.
Operational Standards and Amenities
In addition to its technical infrastructure, LONDON9 is built to support efficient day to day operations. The facility includes dedicated Meet Me Rooms for connectivity, office areas, break rooms, and secure onsite parking for visiting engineers. Operations are aligned with internationally recognized standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 50001, ensuring consistent quality, environmental responsibility, and energy management.
