We’ll take care of your systems and data so you can take care of your business
We appreciate that maintaining high levels of uptime is essential: in business-critical or customer-facing IT systems any downtime will result in loss of business and reputation. That’s why we have multiple levels of equipment redundancy to maintain a functioning data centre environment even in the face of major disruptions to IT operations such as power outages.
Every Pulsant data centre is designed from the ground up to be secure and reliable.

A local facility for maximum convenience
We recognise that you want your own engineers to have access to your servers, so we have data centres across the UK, allowing you to choose a location that is convenient for you. Your equipment will always be available to your engineers, subject to the access protocols of our data centre security.
Our expert data centre engineers are available and can perform many routine or emergency tasks for you. We call this “remote hands”, where our engineers act on your behalf.

What accreditations do Pulsant data centres have?
In addition to holding a Royal Warrant as a provider of hosted IT and data centre services to the Royal Household, all of our data centres are ISO 27001 (Information Security Management), ISO 9001 (Quality Management) and ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) accredited. All sites also conform to the European Data Centre Code of Code. Eight data centres are also PCI-DSS accredited.

What provisions do you have in place for power outages?
While each data centre has different power configurations, there is built-in resilience with diverse power supplies, on-site substations, transformers, UPS and generator power. Regardless of data centre, this ensures a constant power supply and little risk of unplanned downtime due to outages.
