Bytemark Hosting provides a comprehensive managed hosting service to a portfolio of prestigious clients including the Cabinet Office, Carling.com and Médecins sans Frontières. Supplementing its existing network spread over Manchester and London, Bytemark built a new 250 square meter £650,000 data center facility within the warehouse space of its new property in York.
Working in conjunction with Sudlows, Airedale’s SmartCool DX PAC units were specially adapted to provide direct fresh air free cooling for up to 90% of the year and deliver N+1 redundancy. A fresh air mixing box was also specially designed for the project.
