Hosted desktop cloud computing service provider Nasstar has chosen SSE Telecoms' Tier 3+ Hampshire facility to co-locate its hosted desktop infrastructure.
Under Nasstar's contract with SSE Telecoms for new server rack space, power and communications services, the company will have the capacity to serve many thousands more hosted desktop users.
SSE Telecoms' flagship data centre facility adds to Nasstar's existing London facilities.
Nasstar replicates customer and service data between the two data centres using SSE Telecoms' managed Ethernet services.
Charles Black, Nasstar's CEO, said: "We chose SSE Telecoms facility because it has benefitted from substantial investment and, being operated by a power company, offered a much better power-to-rack space ratio than many others we considered.
"Building our hosted desktop service across two data centres puts us in a strong position to serve the growing number of companies who are looking for a highly resilient UK based hosted desktop service."
Chris Jagusz, Managing Director, of SSE Telecoms said: "Our ability to provide guaranteed connectivity and power as well as rack space at our Hampshire facility is attracting more and more clients such as Nasstar."
