“Basically, we need the biggest and the best data center in the country.”

This is how the Seznam.cz team approached us in 2013, when they were choosing a supplier for their strategic decision: switch the existing practice of buying housing services to constructing their own data center.

Data volumes are growing at a rapid pace. We need to be able to respond to current trends. We must keep developing as the largest Czech search engine with news, a business directory, maps, and multimedia content.

Assignment Priorities

“Please come up with an offer for a secure and reliable data center for powering all the portals of our company, Seznam.cz, with the option of developing the data center.”

Adapting the data center building to the technology and not vice versa:
