“The ethos behind Xiria is that we work with our clients to provide customisable bespoke solutions that fit their business, delivering a cloud they can trust,” explained Xiria’s Managing Director, Neil Sperring. “When we were searching for a data centre that would be the primary site for the Xiria private cloud, Datum stood out due to the quality of the facility, the high levels of security and the connectivity options on offer. The location of the data centre on a government grade secure park provides the additional assurance that we wish to offer our clients. We may be in the early stages of our development but our expertise and personal approach has attracted national and global operators from retail, logistics and healthcare. The selection of Datum as our main data centre partner supports our objective to be the leading player in managed IT services and back-up and recovery within three years.”
