About Carrenza

Carrenza has specialised in the building and operation of hosted and managed data centre-based solutions since 2001. We have always been innovators, building and developing systems which test the boundaries of what is possible, before hardening and structuring those systems to make them something that can be relied upon 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

We began offering data centre services convinced that, burst bubble or not, we were still at the very beginning of what the technology could do. We worked hard on building a business that is both proficient technically and in its ability to communicate with its clients.

We found that everyone does not want the same solution, they want the solution that suits their needs, so we focused on making flexible reliable systems designed and operated not to fail. Throughout the last seven years we have made sure we understand and use the latest technology, Research and development and training are all critical to our ability to deliver and succeed.

That is why in 2008 we are one of the first companies in the world to provide an enterprise utility computing platform, Carrenza CHS. A platform that delivers the benefits of this revolution in computing and understands the drawbacks and one which marries those technical elements with a compelling commercial model.

We are passionate about the environmental impacts of our industry, we work hard to lower the impact on the environment of the systems we operate, UCS alone accounts for a server by server drop in power consumption of 65% and an improvement in cooling efficiencies of about 12% over traditional managed hosting. 

Our Team includes real experts in all the key technologies in use today as well as some of those which are the technologies of tomorrow. Our Engineering and consulting teams include Cisco, RedHat and Microsoft Architects and engineers trained and certified in products including VMWare, Oracle, Solaris and many more.

We back up our knowledge with industry leading policies on training and development, staff have access to a large Lab and are encouraged to spend at least 10% of their working time on Training, research and development. That all means we know the technologies you are using , however cutting edge and we can test them, build them and try them before you have to use them in anger.

In all of this we have a simple goal: To give you peace of mind and the reassurance that your systems are being run by experts who actually care about what you are trying to do and who share your goals.
