About our Data Center
Embraced Technology
Here at JPS, we have embraced technology to the highest levels, to do this, we've
partnered with Crosby Communications who manage our off–site dedicated servers, located in
Crosby's own data centre.
Infrastructure
Crosby Communications provides the world–class infrastructure necessary to keep our servers up
and running uninterrupted around the clock. Their North West data centre has been engineered with fully
redundant connectivity, power and HVAC to avoid any single point of failure, and is staffed 24/7 by
highly–trained technical support personnel. And because the data centre is not open to the public,
you can rest assured that only a handful of level–three technicians will be allowed in close physical
proximity to clients data.
Controlled
The Crosby data centre is kept at a constant temperature of 21C, plus or minus 1C, with humidity at a
constant 45–55%. The air in our data centres is filtered every 90 seconds to remove any dust and
contaminants. This facility has 200 tonnes of total cooling capacity – more than enough to maintain
these temperatures and humidity levels. The data centre's Liebert HVAC systems are N+1 redundant to
ensure that – even in the event of an entire system failure – there is a duplicate system on standby to take over.
We know as well as you do that our IT and computers are only as good as the people who run them.
Crosby’s network technicians are trained to the highest standards to ensure that our network is
always up and running.
