Last night se23.life moved over to a new data-centre based in Gloucester, UK.
This data-centre boasts ISO 27001 security standards and FM-200 gas is discharge fire-suppression systems and such - like most of the competition.
But what I also thought would be worth mentioning is that the data-centre also runs on 100% renewable energy from Ørsted. This means that the supplied power is generated through offshore wind and biofuel to minimise environmental impact.
They also have a ISO 50001 certificate which ensures they have policy for efficiency energy use, so the renewable energy that is used is allocated in the most efficient way possible.
Pfft, so you mean all the electrons from my data are doing a round trip to Gloucester? Let’s just hope there are no traffic issues along the M4 corridor.
(Side note - the speed at which data travels about will always fascinate me)
