The cost benefits of server housing
By hosting your servers in conova’s data centers, you gain access to world-class infrastructure without the high one-off investments of building and operating your own facility. You’ll also reduce staffing and maintenance expenses while benefiting from professional-grade performance and availability. And, should your requirements change, you can easily expand your rack space or bandwidth without upfront investments.

From two-factor access controls and advanced climate systems to full-coverage video surveillance and emergency power supply for up to 48 hours – our infrastructure is designed with the highest levels of security in mind. We also understand that people make the difference.
And that’s why personal support is a priority for us: we assist you in planning and migration into conova data centers, and give you real-time insight into system status and monitoring via our app. And if you’re ever unavailable with something urgent comes up, our technicians are ready to step in with our Remote Hands service.

Our state-of-the-art data centers are equipped with fully redundant infrastructure and connected via diverse, route-redundant connections. Simultaneously, conova provides international connectivity to the world’s top peering points in Frankfurt and Amsterdam.
