Volta Data Centres has joined forces with managed service and telecommunications network provider Vorboss to provide an infrastructure-as-a-service platform to customers in Central London. The partnership is ideal for financial services companies across London that have extremely high reliability and availability expectations.
Acting as a network enabler, Vorboss relies on its data centre partners, including Volta Data Centres, to deliver high quality space that meets its demanding technical and compliance requirements. Through these, Vorboss provides managed services, colocation and connectivity.
Jon Arnold, Managing Director, Volta Data Centres, explains, “Vorboss is a fast growing company which has grown into one of the UK’s top 10 most connected networks, so we see it as a great fit to be working with them. Finding the right data centre is a business critical decision for many companies especially those in the financial sectors because they require a safe and secure environment from which the business critical servers and hard drives that contain the applications and data can operate. They require fast, uninterrupted data connections, a totally secure and reliable power supply and buildings that offer the highest possible levels of security, something that Volta can offer Vorboss’ clients.”
Timothy Creswick, Founder and CEO, Vorboss, explains, “Historically, customers in the financial sectors have not had much luck when it comes to data centres and even when they get themselves an independent presence, they end up having to pay nearly criminal rates to have dedicated fibre connectivity or equivalent back from that data centre. These companies were at a huge disadvantage in dealing with all of these different providers on their own, not to mention the logistical difficulties of managing all of the multiple relationships.”
Tim continues, “Combining Volta’s high-quality data centre with Vorboss’s connectivity options allows us to eliminate these disadvantages for customers and let them choose the best data centre for their needs. Being able to provide financial customers with high level power density, the flexibility to expand, an excellent level of technical support and fast reliable connectivity was a priority for us. The Volta team is an extension of the Vorboss’ team and we look forward to growing even more in the future.”
Vorboss is currently the single largest buyer of space within Volta, allowing them to provide clients with sufficient rack space at competitive prices, with the potential for future growth.
