Our servers are all UK based which not only improves your sites loading time, it also improves your ranking on UK search engines (Google UK etc...).

Facility

Our server network is located in a 18,400 square foot IDC (Internet Data Center) facility in London – the hub of telecommunications and Internet connectivity for the United Kingdom. Housed in the prestigious Redbus London Interhouse "Meridian Gate", this multi-million pound facility is seismically designed to include the latest gas-based fire protection systems, specialised heat and smoke sensors, raised flooring, scalable power for future expansion, 24x7 technical support 365 days a year and unmatched levels of security.

The spacious facility features state-of-the-art fiber optics and a redundant self contained cooling system. With 2.5 MVA of UPS conditioned power, and 2 x 1800 kva Generators, the facility can be separated from city water and power services and still remain fully operational for up to 28 days - the backup generators alone could power a city of 20,000 people.

Software Technology

DV8 Media (UK) LTD is proud to be able to offer multiple software technologies with our hosting services. Here are just a few of those technologies:

Server Management Software (Helm)

The entire DV8 Media (UK) LTD infrastructure is controlled by the prestigious Helm Control Panel, a product from Web Host Automation Ltd. With Helm we are able to provide a unique and professional service. By employing Helm, we lower our administration costs passing those savings onto our customers.

Physical Security

All Redbus Interhouse datacentres feature totally comprehensive 24x7 security to keep our equipment 100% safe. This means our customers have the protection of security barriers, 24x7x365 monitoring by on-site personnel to include visual verification of all persons entering the building, CCTV video camera surveillance and a security breach alarm provides the control room with information.

Access to Servers

Access to the buildings, data floors and individual area's are via individually programmed Proximity Access Cards (PAC), usage of the PAC is logged centrally by time and date. The cards cannot be used by anyone else, whenever you swipe your card tag over the sensors to gain access to the building, your digital photograph will be displayed on our security systems which are continuously monitored by our on-site technicians. The technicians will then verify the information and only when satisfied, allow access.

Power Supply

All Redbus Interhouse facilities are built to at least an N+1 standard; put simply, this means that if two generators are required to provide non-stop power, then there'll be three installed. So rather than guaranteeing 99.99% power availability, the guarantee is 100%.

Fire Detection/Suppression

Very Early Smoke Detection Apparatus (VESDA) is installed in every facility. These highly sensitive aspirating smoke detectors are linked to the Building Management system which is monitored continually from a network operations centre, provide very early detection to help avoid fire, loss and business disruption. This is coupled with a gas based fire retardant that is environmentally friendly, to put out fires instantly, without damaging equipment.

Air Conditioning

To ensure optimum performance, all data floors are maintained at a constant 21°C ± 2°C and relative humidity is kept at 50% ± 10%. Both are continually monitored via the BMS.

Building Management System

All Redbus Interhouse facilities operate computerised building management systems that monitor and remotely operate sensors covering electrical, mechanical, fire detection and leak detection systems.
