London, UK

BlueSquare developed the concept for a high specification; carrier-neutral datacentre in the South East of England outside of the M25, and has successfully turned this vision into reality. BlueSquare datacentres have been built from the ground up with only two aims in mind: over engineering and robustness. We believe that solid investment in the best infrastructure and people will allow us, and our customers, continuous growth. We choose to house all UK based services in BlueSquare datacenters due to their commitment to quality and availability.
