Together with this European bank, we’re keeping them connected to their global customers. With the lease on one of their offices ending the bank decided to move their primary and backup data centers to third-party data centers. Following a rigorous RFP process, they selected our London 1 Data Center as their primary data center and Hemel Hempstead 3 for their disaster recovery site. Working with our team they were able to ensure that all their requirements were met including biometric physical access control to their equipment and staging facilities to prepare their infrastructure prior to deployment. Even though they had tight timelines, we were able to ensure they met all their deadlines. 

About London 1 

Our London 1 Data Center provides the bank with access to all key network providers, allowing them to connect their primary and backup sites. The data center is connected to major carrier hubs and cloud networks, as well as to the London Internet Exchange (LINX).

At the end of the competitive process, they decided to move their primary data center to our newly completed London 1 Data Center, with their backup site moving to our established Hemel Hempstead 3 Data Center.
