Network Infrastructure
Our routing infrastructure is built for performance and resilience:
- Connectivity: Dedicated uplinks via Cogent, Zayo, NEOS, and B4RN
- Routing Infrastructure: Private BGP routers with full table feeds and automatic carrier failover
- Network Bandwidth: 300 Gbps routing infrastructure with scalability for future expansion
- Workstation Resiliency: Redundant network switches, power paths, and secure routing per workstation
Private BGP sessions are maintained with all major carriers, with full route tables and multipath redundancy. In the event of any carrier issue, traffic re-routes automatically across alternative paths, ensuring uninterrupted service delivery.
The network backbone at UK-B currently operates at up to 300 Gbps of capacity, with the architecture designed to scale beyond this as customer requirements grow. Every workstation is connected through redundant top-of-rack switching, diverse power feeds, and isolated network segments for maximum availability and security.
Security Measures
Security is embedded throughout the site:
- 24/7 on-site security
- Biometric access controls
- CCTV coverage
- Multi-layered perimeter controls
From continuous manned security presence to biometric-controlled access points, our physical environment is designed to match the same high standards as our virtual platforms.
Sustainability Initiatives
