Our industry leading Data Centre has a highly resilient infrastructure with no single point of failure. It is built to cutting edge standards to provide the best in class for security, environment, power, fire prevention and network connectivity.
South West Communications Group’s Data Centre services have been designed to protect our customers’ data. South West Communications Group fully understands that data is critical to all businesses and, as a natural part of its commitment, undertakes security audits to ensure that the data held is never compromised.
Resilience and availability are of the utmost importance and with this in mind, all components within the Data Centre have been duplicated. This includes redundant firewalls, servers, power supplies, switches, routers, management systems and network services. The building is connected to six different network carriers each with diversely routed cables into different parts of the building.
Internet bandwidth is closely monitored and South West Communications Group has the capacity to provide any level of bandwidth its customers may require.
South West Communications Group’s 24-hour monitoring enables us to rectify potential problems quickly and, in many cases, before they actually manifest themselves at user level.
If a disaster should occur - If fire, flooding or disaster affects one of our clients, there are several solutions that we provide that will protect against or minimise data loss and downtime. The Data Centre’s full list of services, including co-location, firewall protection, flexible Internet bandwidth provision, virtualization and data backup can all be used to design the most suitable disaster recovery solution for your needs.
Real-time resilience will ensure the least amount of down-time possible. This is achieved by using a high speed link between South West Communications Group’s Data Centre and our client’s office to facilitate the immediate duplication of client’s data onto our servers situated in the Data Centre. This Internet connectivity means that in the event of a hardware failure at the client’s site, they can access their data and work from alternative sites almost immediately.
