Our network
Designed to keep you online
Resilience
Through careful design and planning, we’ve created a network that is intended to handle much more traffic than we are ever likely to see in normal conditions.
Secure & Reliable Connections
Our core and data centre networks benefit from 10Gbps of connectivity and are designed to transparently tolerate the failure of any link or piece of equipment.
Scalable
We’re always prepared for when your website goes viral on social media sites or you experience heavy website traffic owing to advertising, product launches, and other media events.
Our datacentres together with our national network allow us to build highly-available hosting solutions.
