Cantono Chief Executive Eamus Halpin commented:
"The speed with which a major facility of this kind has been brought online is a tribute to the work put in both by Cantono's employees and our partners, but also to the effectiveness and elegance of IBM's modular architecture."
"With 80,000 square feet capacity - more than 20 times the size of many data centres - and 15MW of power available from the outset, and major energy savings as well, this answers a major need for usable DC space in the UK."

Visitors saw for themselves how the data centre achieves typical energy savings of 30%, and allows for 50,000 sq feet of usable rack space within 80,000 sq. feet.
The tour also explained the advanced security measures in place to protect the centre as a whole, and also at POD level.

A key advantage of the Modular Data Centre Technology is the speed with which new modules can be brought on line.
The above shows the changes that can be achieved in the space of a few weeks, from outline shell to fully functioning data centre.
