A server is the main communications tool used to stay in touch with suppliers and customers. A few hours, days or even longer without access to your data or email will all too clearly illustrate how important servers are; work can simply grind to a halt.

Servers need to be kept clean and at the right temperature, maintained regularly, protected from unauthorised access, connected to an uninterruptable power supply and linked to your network with efficient connectivity. Delivering these elements can be time consuming and costly. Businesses across the UK entrust us to look after their data on servers in our data centre, releasing internal IT personnel from mundane infrastructure-related tasks to supporting the business more effectively.

As well as enjoying a world class infrastructure, the servers in our data centre are linked to our clients via resilient connectivity and are safe from physical threat and online attack.

We offer the ability for our customers to host their own server equipment within our data centre, whereby we install the equipment into the racks, connect the appropriate amount of power, Internet bandwidth and cooling and maintain a clean and safe computer environment.

Alternatively, for a large number of customers, we provide managed server hosting services whereby we rent the server equipment and are responsible for all hardware and Microsoft operating system faults. We have partnerships with Cisco, Dell, IBM and HP enabling us to provide managed server solutions from best of breed vendors.

Pairs of firewalls are available to restrict unwanted access to servers and to ensure that if one firewall fails, the other is still active. Alternatively, a raw Internet connection can be provided allowing you to provide your own network security.

A dedicated workshop area is available for customers to use for upgrades, administration and housekeeping.

We provide 24-hour proactive monitoring of the electrical power, network connections and Internet bandwidth.
