SecureIT: top-of-the-line Datacenter infrastructure in the heart of Europe


Founded in 2004, SecureIT is a colocation services provider based in Luxembourg, with a clear price-performance leadership in the European Datacenter service market. The company offers large multi-Tier colocation, networking and cloud capabilities to its international internet business clients. It is also active on the national market through its link-up with local value-added partners.


Private Cloud Computing Services SecureIT also off ers integrated private cloud computing solutions that, in most cases, reduce the total cost of ownership by over 50% versus traditional infrastructures deployed by its clients.


SecureIT believes that leveraging each investment made in a customer’s IT systems


is extremely important. This is especially true in today’s increasingly competitive business and economic climate, where companies need, even more than before, to focus on their core activities.


Datacenters


Datacenters contain the most valuable asset of any organisation: its business ICT. The people at SecureIT believe that running these infrastructures and their related hardware and networks should not become a hindrance to a business as this brings an unnecessary drain on both human and technical resources. Delegating this activity to a specialised service company like SecureIT, is an eff ective recipe for preventing these types of headaches.


SecureIT fi nances and sets up state-of-the-art Datacenter infrastructures and has already att racted a number of renowned international internet and banking clients. It currently has 3 Datacenter locations in the centre of Europe off er Tier 4, Tier 3 and Tier 2 capabilities. All of them are operated according to current ITIL best practices.


In addition to off ering outstanding service, SecureIT customers can also enjoy a number of additional perks:


» »


Full professional ICT support services Highly scalable, resilient private cloud


computing environment


» National backbone and international IP routes to major European internet locations


» A clear price-performance leadership » Trustworthy security standards and operational procedures


» Strong, complementary partnerships with blue-chip ICT companies


International Independent Networks The international networking services proposed by SecureIT rely on optical networks between Luxembourg and the internet exchanges in London, Amsterdam, Brussels, Frankfurt and Paris (with more to come in the future). Its services are provided directly on the Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) layer interconnecting with locations or points of presence throughout Europe.


SecureIT’s fi bre network design strives to minimise latency and risk, hence opting for the shortest achievable path and avoiding a critical number of parallel segments used by other international carriers.


SecureIT also relies on national fi bre to all Datacenters and off ers international carrier diversity with the likes of Verizon, Global Crossing, Level3, COGENT, KPN, BT, Orange, Belgacom, Cegecom, EPT (incumbent), LU-CIX (Internet exchange).


SecureIT runs a carrier-independent network to the major European peering points with internet services and GigE from 1 Gbit/s to 40 Gbit/s.


SecureIT’s cloud solution fl ashes services delivery to its customers with template-based provisioning and automation. It helps to continuously optimise the usage of resources with tools for capacity planning, availability and power management.


The cloud’s relatively low infrastructure


cost allows businesses to promptly adjust to dynamic business demands in minutes instead of months. It also lets businesses own their individual services catalogue using tested and proven best practice templates and workfl ows for their private infrastructure and application environments.


Embracing cloud computing solutions also allows for the easy and on-demand deployment and modifi cation of complex infrastructures, operating systems and applications. Businesses can more easily gain a deep insight of their infrastructure, allowing for quick adjustment of their environment over its lifecycle without time- consuming analysis. Workloads are eff ortlessly protected and automatically recovered thanks to a range of integrated solutions for availability and disaster recovery.


In short, cloud computing radically converts the economics of Datacenter usage from steady to adaptable, just the way modern businesses ought to.
