Internet Service Provider NetConnex www.ncuk.com, reports that it has extended its relationship with Redbus Interhouse to house a greater proportion of its mission critical IT infrastructure within two of Redbus Interhouse’s London colocation facilities.
NetConnex provides a range of services from redundant Internet connectivity for high traffic sites and networks, to IT consultancy for SMEs (small and medium enterprises). Its core services include colocation, dedicated servers, rackspace
and transit, therefore the necessity to provide a service to its customers is the main objective, the firm says. Initially NetConnex was sited in only one of Redbus Interhouse’s three Docklands locations but to facilitate its growth the company now has its own office and suite in a second Redbus Interhouse London datacentre.
What they say
Sebastien Lahtinen, Managing Director, NetConnex, says: "We are currently in a phase of focussing our operations, so, to have an office in the same building as the datacentre allowing us to move between the data floor and the office without hindrance was critical in our choice. Redbus Interhouse has an excellent power, air conditioning and cooling system which enables us to have dual power feeds into each rack to provide customers a higher level of service. The flexibility of Redbus Interhouse’s contracts, its location and capability to offer a more ‘complete’ solution were key advantages for us and combined with the reasons above, this is now our primary site."
Simon Neal, UK Country Manager, Redbus Interhouse, adds: "Since January 2005 we have witnessed a significant increase in customer expansion across our three London datacentres – there’s a definite trend and it’s exciting to see NetConnex grow so rapidly and contribute in some measure to its success through the provision of optimal environments for growth."
