Our Data Centre

Located in Melbourne’s outer east, our data centre, Micron 21, provides a robust, reliable and secure environment to host our servers. Some of the features that make our data centre the best are:

• Quadruple redundant power delivered by four independent circuits.
• In addition to mains power, each circuit is powered from;
  • Independent Power Distribution Systems (PDUs)
  • Independent Switchboards
  • Uninterruptable Power Supplies (UPSs)
  • Dual external 1MW generators.
• AS ISO 15420 compliant building with fully redundant VESDA detection and ProInert (IG-55) Fire Suppression System.
• Redundant multi homed BGP routing via our independent International Network.
• Two completely separate methods of cooling, chilled water and chilled gas systems.

All of this network and data centre infrastructure is one thing, but it’s no good without quality people at the helm.

We wouldn’t be anywhere else.
