Infrastructure

Based on high specification dedicated servers at a private datacentre in Berkshire, UK. The site specification is:

  • 450mm raised floor void
  • Redundant parallel UPS system
  • Close control downflow air conditioning units
  • Staff on-site 24/7/365
  • 2 megawatt substation with 11kV feed
  • Backup diesel generator
  • Fire detection and gas surpression system
  • 2.5 metre pallisade security fence around perimeter
  • PAC security access system
  • 24/7/365 recorded CCTV on every rack aisle and all entrances
  • Multiple fibre routes out of the building, diversely routed
  • Multiple 10 gigabit ethernet network connections to London
  • Cat6 shielded structured cabling

Air Conditioning

  • External air condensers for close control HVAC (heating, ventilation and cooling) system, to keep servers cooled and at a constant temperature.

Structured Cabling

  • Category 6 shielded structured cabling for delivery of network services in the data centre.

Security

  • Digital CCTV both internally and externally, monitored and recorded 24/7/365.
  • 2.5m metal pallisade fence surrounding the compound, to keep your equipment and data safe.
  • All entrances and exits have secure proximity tags to ensure only authorised personnel can access the site.

Maintenance

  • Staff are on-site 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
  • All servers in the datacentre are continually monitored to achieve maximum uptime.
  • Staff are trained and experienced in repairing server hardware.

Power

  • An emergency stand-by diesel generator will provide power in the unlikely event of a utility failure. The power distribution system automatically switches from mains power to diesel generator in the event of a failure.
  • All servers are protected by a UPS (uninteruptible power supply) which uses batteries to provide continual clean power.

Fire Detection & Suppression

  • Protected around the clock by an advanced fire detection system.
  • Fire detectors throughout the data floor, underneath the raised floor, and in ancillary areas. There are two types of fire detectors for maximum resilience.
  • Gas suppression system. In the unlikely event of a fire, an environmentally-friendly gas will be released to stop the fire.
  • The fire suppression gas is stored in high pressure cylinders away from the server room.
