Our servers are housed in a secure data centre environment with access to a
high-speed internet connection through multiple providers, 24/7 security and a
fully redundant power system.

Located in Gloucester, the data centre uses the latest technologies maintained
around the clock by an expert team of engineers.
Every possible consideration is made for dedicated servers to operate to their
full potential, so they can deliver the highest possible levels of uptime and
security.
Unrivalled Connectivity
Plugged directly to the backbone of the internet, our servers enjoy a fully
redundant Tier 1 connection so our clients never experience slow-down or service
interruptions.
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.
- CCTV covers all areas of the data centre and corporate offices
- Highly experienced security guards on duty 24x7x365
- Access control requiring swipe-card, multiple digit PIN, finger-print plus
accurate weight matching, ensuring absolutely no access to unauthorised
personnel
Climate Controlled Environment
Extensive environmental controls are employed to make sure our servers work to
their fullest potential and deliver high performance day-in, day-out.
- A multi-million pound Denco system 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
Uninterruptable Power Supply
The data centre uses the most advanced APC X UPS system available, providing
uninterruptable power to our 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 centre for 30 days.
Monitoring
In addition to the sophisticated monitoring systems, there is a team of expert
engineers monitoring the data centre 24 hours a day, ensuring any potential
issues within the platform are prevented before they can even happen.
