Colocation-Site NTT Vienna

A High-Performance Location for Your IT

In 2015, the most modern data center of its time was constructed at the southern edge of Vienna. It incorporated expertise from other locations, such as e-shelter Frankfurt (the largest data center operator in Frankfurt am Main, Germany) into the planning process. Particular emphasis was placed on the efficient use of resources. This resulted in an extremely high-performance data center, leading to the additional DIN 50001 certification, above and beyond regular certifications.

next layer operates a fully redundant network node with multiple external fiber-optic links at this site, and a dedicated fully-separated hot/cold aisle area for colocation and cloud services.

 

High Availability in all Sizes

We provide double-sided colocation cabinets with redundant power supply and air-conditioning, starting at locker-sized quad cabinets. Scaling and growth are possible via half and full cabinets up to dedicated cages. Customer access is always possible for maintenance purposes or for removal – or you can hand over operational management (or parts thereof) to next layer.
