EvoSwitch Data Center Services Optimization Model Shortlisted at Datacloud Europe


May 04, 2018

According to a recent release, the Datacloud Europe Award jury has shortlisted EvoSwitch into three Datacloud Award categories. The award categories are for innovation efforts when it comes to implementing a continual sustainability and operational excellence optimization model for its data centers. The Datacloud Award jurors also praised EvoSwitch for maintaining high customer satisfaction levels year-over-year, and for the value added data center services being deployed.

During the last decade, EvoSwitch’s engineering teams have continually made optimizations to their Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) figures, resulting in a day-to-day PUE value for its large-scale colocation data centers ranging from 1.1 to 1.15 currently. The Datacloud Europe Award jury has shortlisted EvoSwitch, again, now for its unwavering commitment to the highest standards of sustainable data center operations and for its culture of continuous operational optimization.

“We sincerely appreciate the triple Datacloud Award nomination, but the real proof of our successes and market leadership can be found in our customer satisfaction rates,” said Eric Boonstra, CEO, EvoSwitch. “A Net Promoter Score metric above 50 is regarded as excellent while we manage to achieve significantly higher figures year after year. Sustainability is a small though valuable component of a wide range of qualities we’re offering, which also includes a 99,999% uptime; compliance with a full range of third-party standards including ISO 27001:2013, PCI-DSS, SOC1 Type II, and ISO 14001:2004; the value-add services we create such as EvoSwitch OpenCloud, to open up customer ecosystems; and much more. We’re happy to see that these outstanding achievements have gained public recognition now that EvoSwitch has been shortlisted Datacloud for their ‘Excellence in Data Centre Service Award with Local Impact’ award category.”

Day 2, Cisco Live!

Tuesday was Day 2 of Cisco Live for Fiber Mountain and we continued to experience high levels of traffic, with many high value decision makers and influencers visiting our booth. One very interesting difference from most conferences I attend is that there are no titles on anyone's show badges. This allows open conversations without people being pretentious. I think this is a very good idea.
