The importance of a reliable data centre
Social media and the rise and rise of companies like Facebook and Twitter are opening up a new world of opportunity. There is so much internet traffic now that a lot of experts are predicting traditional media services like television and print news to be obsolete in as little as twenty years. Certainly this is food for thought, but in order for the social channels and the rest of the internet to operate, it is important as a creative marketer to ensure your online business is housed on reliable servers with excellent speed and connectivity.
A recent article that appeared on the This Is Money website shows beyond doubt, just how invaluable investing in a secure space for your server is. Without a reliable centre for all your data needs, it is highly likely that your business will soon join the scrap heap of failed start ups (of which there are many). Telecity is one of the best known companies for providing its clients access to reliable and secure data centres. Facebook and the BBC both rank as two of the group’s most high profile customers and with good reason. Telecity houses its clients’ entire IT infrastructure purposely in the locations which not only provide security, but connectivity to all the best telecoms and distribution networks to name but a few.
As online marketing is now the most effective way of reaching customers globally for the best price, companies traditionally mired in the twentieth century are struggling to keep up. Facebook alone has demonstrated the sheer power of marketing itself through social networking, but it wouldn’t be able to reach half the audience it does without having access to the best networks, cloud hubs and telecoms channels. As the demand for effective web marketing increases, so too has the demand for more storage centres. It is virtually impossible for a successful online business to house all of its data internally. The storage space required is just not cost effective and there have been many companies that have fallen foul of unreliable in house systems. A lot of the burden, worry and maintenance costs are removed by investing in reliable off-site data centres.
When setting out to market your company online, do not underestimate the IT infrastructure required for your web presence to be secure, connected and successful. Without companies like Telecity, none of us would get very far in the 21st Century.
