Spar Nord needed greater operational reliability and stability for their 400,000 customers throughout the country. Also, they were looking for a high level of security, a flexible solution and a greener profile.
To meet those requirements, Spar Nord rented 16 racks in Netic’s high-security, energy-efficient data centre on a future-proof agreement.
Along with the dedicated space in the data center, Spar Nord achieves the highest possible operational reliability and stability. On top of that, the centre allows the bank to have its own space without operational responsibility.
The agreement secures operational stability for the bank for years to come, and it can easily scale it up and down without having to pay for this service in advance.
