Netwise Hosting Launch New 'London Central' Data Centre

This February will see Netwise Hosting launch their brand new 'London Central' data centre to the public for the first time, following their soft opening in May 2015.

Netwise Hosting has today announced a public-facing launch date for its brand new London Central data centre.

Thursday 25th February will see many top industry professionals descend on the firms London Bridge headquarters and flagship colocation facility, celebrating the official launch and for private guided tours of the yet largely unseen data centre.

We wanted everything to be perfect for our public launch, as you only get once chance to make a first impression.

Matt Seaton, Senior Manager

Although the site has been servicing its existing customer base - as well as a range of key new anchor tenants - since May 2015, the company elected to delay the public launch until the facility had settled with its existing clientele, and all supplementary amenity works were complete.

Matt Seaton, Senior Manager at Netwise, explained the launch proceedings a little further.

“We wanted everything to be perfect for our public launch, as you only get once chance to make a first impression. Our existing customers and our steady influx of new high-priority anchor contracts helped us ‘bed in’ the new facility under real-world conditions, as well as giving us time to finalise the smaller finishing touches which make our sites so unique. Now that this phase of the build is totally complete, we are ready to open our doors to the wider world.”

Managing Director, Matthew Butt, also gave comment.

“We were fortunate enough to be able to soft-open this facility in May at around 10% capacity before we even began marketing it properly, which is a position most new data centres do not find themselves in. This meant that we could really take our time on the finishing touches, without the need to rush into a launch plan driven solely by the need to increase revenue. We have created a data centre which puts the customer first, not our bottom line, so we needed things to be spot on for launch time.”

This is the second facility designed and built entirely in-house by the Netwise Hosting team, the first of which, based in Sutton (Surrey), was decommissioned in March 2014 due to rapid expansion.

The new data centre has been designed and built modularly, meaning the facility infrastructure can be expanded as demand increases. The facility also boasts a capacity PUE of just 1.12, one of the lowest in London, thanks largely to its innovative evaporative cooling system.

The event organisers have hinted at the prospect of having a number of high-profile guests at the launch, as well as a surprise unveiling of a newly improved supplementary service from its lauded ‘RightStart Colocation Support’ service set.

Netwise Hosting will begin welcoming customers into the new site immediately, with high demand expected post-launch.
