Hard Facts

Our state-of-the-art data centre, with three physically separate external connections via distinct routes, enables us to guarantee our customers 99.9 per cent uptime. The data centre has two separate fire compartments, which also allow for the operation of cluster systems spanning multiple fire compartments.

With our housing and Colocation packages, you can choose from options ranging from 1U in a single-housing rack right up to a full Colocation rack with 42U. Our 24/7 Remote Hands Service is provided by qualified service staff.

Thanks to our early fire detection system, we can guarantee the safe operation of your servers even in the event of a fire. Below you will find all the technical specifications for our housing and Colocation packages:
