Data centre

As a Swiss hosting service provider, our top priority is to ensure that our services are of impeccable quality. For this reason, we continually invest in our dedicated infrastructure to guarantee fail-safe and redundant operation.

Power supply

The non-interruptible power supply is guaranteed by a 15-minute battery capacity and an emergency diesel-powered generator. All power is supplied from renewable energy sources.

Cameras monitor all entrances and server rooms 24/7. An electronic access-control system permits access to authorised persons only after an on-site check of their identity cards.

Fire safety

The latest in early warning systems, with a direct connection to the local fire brigade, ensures that your data is safe even in the event of a fire. In addition to this, specials doors and locking systems prevent the fire spreading to other areas.
