When Data Centre Downtime isn’t an Option – Choose Volta
Volta was established in 2013, at an exclusive, standalone site on Great Sutton Street. Since opening, it has had a 100% power uptime record – giving it an enviable reputation in the UK and internationally for Private Cloud and Managed Colocation services. This makes it the most uncompromising data centre option for businesses and organisations that cannot tolerate downtime.
Volta can guarantee performance because of the unique combination of power provision and network diversity facilitated by a Central London location.
Volta’s award-winning performance is rooted in two separate, diverse 33kV power supplies, connected to London’s modernised power network – as well as diverse data connectivity from multiple entry points to the building.
In the unlikely event of a total power network failure, a double-redundant, 6,000kW uninterrupted power supply with a five minute crossover is engaged. From there, fully fueled generators and a 24/7 refuelling contract will keep Volta and its clients running indefinitely, until the network is restored.
Volta’s power and connection security is further enhanced by a formidable on-site security detail. A highly trained team of security personnel patrols Volta 24 hours a day; constant, vigilant monitoring and advanced security systems ensure that only authorised access is possible.
deeserve exclusively manages and operates hardware at Volta – giving our customers bespoke solutions for Private Cloud and Managed Colocation, with Volta’s 100% power uptime service level agreement.
