COLOCATION AND DATA CENTRE HOSTING

Your customers’ data – hosted, secured and managed all in one place, by experts.

NODE4 CHANNEL OWNS, OPERATES AND MANAGES THREE STATE-OF-THE-ART DATA CENTRES

That means we have total control – and so do you. We have a combined footprint of 83,000 square feet, a rack capacity of 1,580 and each of our data centre hosting sites are ISO 27001 certified and PCI compliant.  

We maintain and manage the daily operations of each of our data halls, ensuring lightning-fast response times, a personalised approach for each customer and consistent uptimes. We run many of our own services from our Derby, Northampton and Leeds locations, too, because keeping them safe, secure and efficient is in our best interests, and yours.  

Along with points of presence in Equinix Slough, Telecity Manchester and Telehouse and Global Switch London, our data centres are strategically located around the UK, with Derby serving the Midlands, Northampton serving the south and Leeds in the north. This ensures that we’re easily accessible, wherever you are in the country.
