Antwerp, March 23, 2022 – Datacenter United celebrates! Our Antwerp data center has recently received the ‘Tier IV constructed facility’ certificate from the Uptime Institute. In the spring of 2021, we already received the ‘Tier IV design’ certificate.
The new construction certificate confirms that we have built our infrastructure and facilities to meet the highest standards in terms of redundancy. Datacenter United is unique because it is the only one of its kind in Belgium with this certificate. There are also not many datacenters in Europe who can offer this high level of service and security.
Friso Haringsma, CEO of Datacenter United: “With our Tier IV certified environment we ensure the most optimal protection of the stored data and offer the highest level of guarantees regarding data redundancy. The higher the guarantees at the infrastructure level, the more guarantees we can offer to the end users. This is of great importance for the larger cloud and telco providers, but also for companies with high market visibility such as e-commerce platforms, or companies that work with critical data networks like governments, healthcare providers, banks, and military organizations.
With our Tier IV datacenter, we offer the highest level of security possible for datacenters today, which is unique in Belgium. In this way, we have put Belgium on the European datacenter map and made possible what others thought impossible.”
Why a local Tier IV datacenter?
US-based consulting and auditing firm Uptime Institute has developed an international rating system that indicates the level of guaranteed redundancy of a datacenter. Service levels range from Tier I to the ultimate Tier IV. More information can be found on their website.
