COLOCATION DATA CENTRES

COLOCATION DATA CENTRES

The digital transition is forcing companies to adapt their organisational processes and IT infrastructures very quickly. Flexibility, individuality and speed are at the heart of the changes that also affect our private sphere. Data centre colocation enables your company's IT infrastructure (hardware) to be integrated into a secure data centre environment.

Hybrid data centres offer a solution to companies in the implementation of their digital strategy, as they offer an ideal combination of local servers, housing/hosting solutions and clouds (private or public).

From design to data migration and the choice of housing, hosting or cloud solution, our experts guarantee the security, profitability and sustainability of your business.

OUR ADDED VALUE

  • Depending on your gross floor space requirements (whitespace), we will work out your data centre colocation target through a structured process.
  • From this we derive your requirements for modularity, expansion and extension. We help you identify a site and analyse its environment and redundant IT or energy structures. In this way, we ensure that the maximum use is made of the gross floor space in relation to the total permitted building area.
  • Our experts help you to formulate your objective. They provide Project Management, technical and economic monitoring using the Single Point of Contact (SPoC). They support the construction of your colocation data centre or the renovation of an existing building. They ensure commissioning and blackbuilding tests. They guarantee the profitability of the project through optimised data centre construction and the choice of the right components based on their durability and availability.

SUSTAINABLE DATA CENTRES

In an increasingly digital world, it is essential to design more environmentally friendly and energy efficient data centres. Continuous server cooling systems not only consume a lot of energy, they are also very expensive. Elaborated energy concepts are available for the sensible use of the heat emitted and the thoughtful integration of these buildings into the design of the district. Our experts use them to make your data centre not only more environmentally friendly, but also profitable in the long term.

DIGITAL NETWORKS

(copy 10)

Without it, there can be no digital transformation or digitalisation of the 'knowledge society': only the creation of a digital infrastructure - digital networks - allows network-based business models or digital services to be implemented. The extension of modern fibre-optic networks into buildings is necessary to meet the needs - whether private, commercial or municipal infrastructure. The availability, reliability and quality of digital data transmission via a modern national broadband network is crucial.

CAMPUS NETWORKS

Campus networks are mobile networks designed specifically for industry, research or certain public administrations. They allow machines and operations to be linked together without delay. These networks use 5G technology. This evolution will revolutionise our communication as the next generation of 5G networks will lead to a paradigm shift towards a technology framework centred around the user and their experiences. This framework will enable 3 main types of applications.
