New breed data centres at the heart of any data intensive organisation In this fast paced information age of instant communication with an ever
growing requirement for digital information at our fingertips, both in business and at leisure, the heart that beats to circulate this life blood is the new breed of data centre. By Capita Secure information solutions.

ut what is it all really about? Is this just today’s hot topic? Or is this a solution for hard pressed organisations looking to an answer to their IT issues?
Organisations that supply services to end users are seeing the need to be constantly available, 24/7 without downtime. This is a major consideration for all IT departments, closely followed by security and, in these modern times, sustainability. The exponential growth in digital data, which is driven by the technology surrounding us, such as smart phones and tablets, didn’t exist ten years ago. Data needs
to be stored, churned and mined in a much greater capacity than ever before. And, once the new data protection reforms apply they must be able to hold, access, share, transfer or delete data upon the request of their customers and the regulators within measured timelines – or fines will be incurred by non-compliant organisations. The reduction of data breaches, the data protection reforms, government initiatives for consumer empowerment to make better choices (Midata) and the Carbon Reduction Commitment for ICT are all newsworthy issues that will affect the vast majority of UK businesses and public sector operations in the coming months. So, at the heart of this lies the need for a data centre that not only fits your business requirements for today, but can grow with you and meet your future IT needs.
There is a best in class solution available. Capita Secure information solutions with Ark Continuity at Spring Park, Corsham, together combine innovation with proven and rigorous engineering; utilising manufacturing style construction processes, resulting in highly modular data centres that are scalable, multi-tiered, rapidly deployable, low carbon and, above all, highly efficient.
