Luxembourg-based EBRC (European Business Reliance Centre) has announced data centre operator MIGSOLV as its UK partner in light of Brexit.
EBRC, a specialist in managing highly sensitive information also known as Europe’s ‘digital fortress’, has chosen MIGSOLV as its UK partner. The move provides EBRC’s clients with a broader choice of international facilities and a UK data centre presence to address the potential data transfer challenges of Brexit.
EBRC provides data centre, cybersecurity, cloud and managed services to 400 clients from 40 countries and operates five highly-secured, interconnected data centres in Luxembourg. It specialises in supporting organisations which are dependent on highly sensitive information, with particular strength in the finance, international institutions, government, healthcare and biotech sectors.
MIGSOLV provides IT colocation services from its ultra-secure Gatehouse facility in Norwich, England. It provides flexible rack space to public bodies and companies from small organisations to large enterprises.
By selecting MIGSOLV as its UK partner, EBRC can now offer its clients a wider selection of data centres under a single contract, including a UK facility which could potentially address the uncertainties posed by Brexit. Similarly, MIGSOLV can now offer customers additional facilities on mainland Europe.
EBRC will also appoint a partner in other major European countries including Germany, Switzerland and Belgium.
Alexander Duwaerts, International Client Development Director at EBRC, commented that: “We want to offer a wider portfolio of highly secure data centres in addition to our own ones Luxembourg. And the UK is especially important with Brexit on the horizon as customers are concerned about the implications it may have for cross-border data transfer.”
