Companies require more secure server co-location solutions

Latest global trends prove that IT strategies of companies are changing towards raising of data and IT hardware security. In order to offer clients a more extensive range of super-secure services, the largest Baltic data center operator DEAC Ltd. launches a new service called „Maximum Data Security”.

The „Maximum Data Security” service was created after a client survey with a purpose to explore the needs and satisfaction of the current and potential clients with respect to the services offered. It showed that companies are ready to rationalize their IT infrastructure, build a stronger business continuity plan and use secure data center services.

The „Maximum Data Security” service will offer five increased-security levels. Firstly, it includes ID access control to server racks, additional alarm system and notification. Secondly, racks can have video and micro-climate monitoring, and vibration sensors can be installed. Similarly, within our new service we offer separate, dedicated and lockable server rack compartments. „Finally we are able to provide those clients who require topmost security with a separate lockable room for hardware co-location”, says Andris Gailītis, Chairmen of the Board, DEAC Ltd.

„Depending on the chosen security level, communication connection scheme and other security requirements, the service prices can differ. As an example, a solution that would satisfy requirements of any bank - Maximum Data Security 4KW TIER I/II server rack with ID, movement sensors, individual IP cameras, GSM Ethernet disconnecting switches and Internet connection, is available starting from 1000 EUR per month”, the COB describes the flexible pricing policy.

The new service could be successfully developed thanks to the opening of the 2nd DEAC's data center „Rīga” being the largest and most advanced data center in the Baltics, opened September this year.   Current area of the data center is 600m2, up to 200 server racks can be rented there with a server capacity up to 8000 units.

In early 2011 it is planned to expand the center's area up to 1400m2 or up to 500 server racks with a server capacity up to 20 500. It must be noted that the data center „Rīga” conforms to the highest category  - TIER IV, being the highest data center infrastructure security and availability standard.
