Our Web servers on which your Website is hosted, whether shared, dedicated, virtual (VPS) or PCI compliant are all housed in Telehouse in London near Poplar and the Blackwall Tunnel. Established in 1989, Telehouse became Europe’s first purpose-built, neutral data centre provider by opening its famous London data centre Telehouse North. Headquartered in London, Telehouse Europe has since grown to become one of the largest, global data centre providers, operating a network of 47 data centres in 23 strategic locations in the EMEA, the Americas and the Asia-Pacific region that cover all major commercial and financial hubs, meaning that we are never too far from their premium data centres. This is where the government, banks, and many multi-national organisations, as well as thousands of SMEs hold their data in Cloud server storage as well as Websites.
