BT Data Centre Services

Why connect your network direct to a BT data centre?

You probably have increasingly need for flexible, high speed, resilient access both to the Internet and to your data centres. You may have large peaks in traffic but don't want to pay for bandwidth that you don't always need. You are likely to need resilient connections but don't want to pay for backup circuits that you will rarely need.

For customers using our IP Converge or IP Clear networks, we can now provide secure connections to our Data Centres and to the Internet - direct from your network.

This means you can have just one connection serving all of your sites - so you won't need to pay for, to manage or to secure separate connections at each site.

Our connections are already fully resilient, so you won't have to pay extra for backup circuits. They are also "burstable", which means that you can have short peaks in traffic without paying for permanent additional bandwidth.

Since these are connections direct from our MPLS network, you won't need to buy more circuits if you add more business sites, and it's quick and easy to increase speed when you need to.

Your business

Take a look at your business. If you're considering securing your business by moving to a data centre, this facility could give you secure, reliable, flexible access from all your sites and home workers.

If your business relies on the Internet being available at every site and for every customer, this facility could give you the easier-to-manage, easier-to-scale, secure and resilient Internet connection you need.

Think about these questions;

• How do you connect to the Internet and to your data centre today?
• Are these connections resilient?
• Are you able to quickly change the speed of these connections if traffic volumes rise unexpectedly? Would you have to pay more for this?
• Do you carry your company traffic as well as your customer traffic on the same link?
