In 2014, Pulsant upgraded the technology, power capabilities and connectivity at its Maidenhead data centre.

Data defined storage provider Tarmin will use colo services provided by Pulsant. 

The two-year contract will see the Boston-headquartered company making use of the colo and cloud specialist’s Maidenhead data centre.

Tarmin describes itself as a “pioneer” of data defined storage solutions. Its GridBank platform has been designed to unlock the value of data as a strategic business enabler, delivering what’s claimed to be a “massively scalable” and unified approach for consistent data management, storage, retention, security and search across cloud and traditional storage infrastructure.

Shahbaz Ali, the company’s president and CEO, says: “Pulsant satisfies our growing need for a more scalable data centre, while delivering compelling and reliable services, convenient connectivity into London and a broad global network.”

Pulsant reckons its Maidenhead data centre is an “ideal” location for Tarmin’s colocation requirements, and provides the security, connectivity and resilience demanded for high performance hosting.

The resilient Tier III facility features round the clock security and ISO 27001 certification. It was upgraded in 2014 in terms of its technology, power capabilities and connectivity. 

Pulsant sales director Adam Eaton says: “Maidenhead already hosts a number of large-scale organisations in the IT space in its five data halls, all of whom benefited from our enhancements to our core switch network. 

“Our customers are assured of added stability, bandwidth and faster connections. They are also able to connect directly from Maidenhead into the Equinix cloud exchange in Slough to fully utilise the density of cloud and network providers on the campus.”
