Our datacentres

Every product bought through Easyspace is housed within one of our 6 self-owned UK data centres. Below is an outline of the capability of those data centres as well as an overview of the network that connects them.

One of the key reasons to consider Easyspace is the simple fact that we own and manage our very own data centres. Unlike other hosting companies, we do not rely on middlemen or 3rd party centres to provide the core components required for a robust and resilient network.

Covering 3,500m² of data centre technology, our data centres are fully powered, resilient, secure and each includes features such as 24hr security (manned, CCTV and intruder alarms), dual independent power feeds backed up with UPS, diverse fibre routing via multiple carriers, Dual zone fire detection & suppression system and more.

Our Network

Easyspace has 6 Uk Data centresThe Easyspace network infrastructure is built around the 6 UK data centres (located in Glasgow, London, Maidenhead, Manchester, Nottingham and Leicester) owned and managed by the company. Owning and managing these data centres allows Easyspace to guarantee high levels of resilience and uptime, not to mention the flexibility of creating its own network as it sees fit (rather than relying on 3rd party data centre setup).

The data centres are linked via 1GB per second (Gbps) fibre ring and all exchange hardware required to keep it running is housed in purpose built storage on each site. The network hub of each data centre includes Cisco switching, dual power supplies and a range of fabric enabled line cards, supporting both fibre and copper gigabit connections.

All network, transit links and servers are monitored continually by our automatic systems, meaning that should any issue arise, it is found and fixed quickly.

This resilience and security allows Easyspace to offer high levels of uptime on all of its dedicated servers.
