Uninterruptible power supply
The data centres use the most advanced APC X UPS system available, providing uninterruptible power to all servers. In the case of a power outage, the power supply is switched instantly (with absolutely no interruption) to a diesel generator capable of running the data centres for 30 days.
Monitoring
In addition to the sophisticated monitoring systems, there are a team of expert engineers monitoring the data centres 24 hours a day, ensuring that any potential issues with the platform are prevented before they can even happen.
