Secure data centre

The ultimate internet environment

• The latest technology – Exchange mail servers, plus thousands of the latest Microsoft Windows 2003 and Linux web servers.
• Unrivalled connectivity - plugged directly to the backbone of the internet, every server enjoys a fully redundant Tier 1 connection so our customers never experience slow-down or service interruptions.
  
  

Uninterruptible power supply

The data centres use the most advanced APC X UPS system available, providing uninterruptible power to all servers. In the case of a power outage, the power supply is switched instantly (with absolutely no interruption) to a diesel generator capable of running the data centres for 30 days.

Monitoring

In addition to the sophisticated monitoring systems, there is a team of expert engineers monitoring the data centres 24 hours a day, ensuring that any potential issues with the platform are prevented before they can even happen.

Climate controlled environment

Extensive environmental controls are employed to make sure our servers work to their full potential and deliver high performance day-in, day-out.

• Our servers are part of a multi-million pound Denco system, which ensures that the data centre climate is monitored and adjusted to perfection at all times.
• Top of the line air-conditioning units.
• Humidity analysers and accurate temperature monitors.
• Fire suppression equipment – if the worst should happen, FM-200 gas is discharged within just 2 seconds to suppress the affected area.

The safest place for your email - Ultimate security

Data centre access is strictly limited to security-cleared personnel, controlled by extensive CCTV monitoring and state-of-the-art access control systems.
