The Data Centres - Part of a Managed Web Hosting Service
Power
Power is routed through the Lightning Protection System, the generator change over panel and redundant UPS’s before getting to the servers. This ensures that all power to the servers is supplied at a smooth rate.
Generator
As the second line of defence against power failure there are industrial generators, capable of supplying enough electricity to the entire data centre. So in the event of a major power failure your web site will still be available.
Network Monitoring
We use Cisco routers and switches. Should network components fail, the network will carry on with no degradation in speed or reliability.
Fire Protection
Should a fire break out the Fire Suppression System will be triggered and in seconds gas will extinguish the fire.
Air Conditioning
Air conditioning systems regulate temperature and relative humidity to ensure the systems operate efficiently as possible.
Water Detection
In the unlikely event that water leaks inside the data centre, sensors will detect the leak and sound the alarm to the network operations staff.
High Security
The data centre was constructed with security in mind. Access is restricted by proximity reader access that records all access to the data centre.
