The Result
With Volta Data Centre’s operations team support, GDC was able to meet their deadlines and to complete the entire relocation project within four days, with no downtime affecting its multiple on-going projects. Volta successfully equipped the allocated space and provided the engineering support to meet GDC’s requirements. GDC experienced 100% uptime leading to a smooth transition and no negative impact on the business. The aerospace specialist now benefits from a state-of-the-art data centre in central London, allowing them to provide outstanding maintenance on Boeing and Airbus aircrafts.
“I was really impressed with the speed with which Volta was able to meet our requirements and get the infrastructure ready for us to move in and ready to work from day one. We contacted over 100 data centres asking for help but only Volta was able to meet our requirements for time and savings on such short notice”, says Robert Stallknecht, Senior Systems Administrator at GDS Technics. “We usually have between 3-5 big projects on the go at any one time, so it was essential we could move quickly, and I was amazed when everything just turned on Monday morning and we had experienced no downtime.”
“We were confident that we could deliver on such short timescales, because we had already done it previously with other customers, says Jonathan Arnold, Managing Director at Volta Data Centres. Our operations team worked round the clock to provide a smooth relocation experience for GDC. We believe that our unique location on 2 separate power rings in central London makes us the perfect colocation provider for any organisation that can’t afford any downtime such as GDC, adds Arnold.
