Crown Hosting helped Sellafield Ltd accelerate its hosting strategy by five years

The problem

Sellafield Ltd had used another data centre provider for ten years and was working to bring its on-site data centre up to Tier III. It needed secondary capacity quickly and to a high standard, from a provider that was government approved and fit for purpose on security and facilities, without the cost and management of building its own.

The solution

Sellafield Ltd chose data centre as a service in Crown Hosting, so power and cooling are taken care of. Its space was fitted out quickly and, with the site seven hours away, Crown Hosting's Smart Hands engineers supported it on site throughout. A customer portal and monthly dashboard give the team detailed technical information to manage the space.

The outcome

What it delivered

5 years

Hosting strategy accelerated, with Crown Hosting's help

2x

Data centre space, doubled since the first move

7 hours

From site, with Crown Hosting's Smart Hands engineers on hand throughout

“
We chose to go with Crown Hosting (rather than building ourselves a secondary data centre) because the management overhead is far less and we didn't have a requirement to own the space.
