Hybrid and remote working have quickly become the standard working practice for many desk-based jobs . ServerChoice ’ s research shows that 42 % of SMEs are planning to move or have already moved from their office in order to facilitate hybrid working . This new normal is leading to many businesses exploring their options in the infrastructure market .

However , as no two businesses are the same , there is no ‘ one size fits all ’ solution for IT infrastructure . The new ServerChoice Connect service facilitates variety , giving businesses the agility they need to flourish in the current landscape . Through its flexible approach , ServerChoice Connect allows businesses to capitalise on the benefits of differing environments . For example , organisations using the new service can now exploit the scalability of hybrid cloud , while benefitting from the data sovereignty and security delivered by colocation services .

Users of ServerChoice Connect are also now able to transfer data and workloads from various locations , allowing them to rapidly adapt to changing market demands as and when it is required .

The full features of the technology include :

• Fast , high-performance connectivity direct from a ServerChoice rack

• Connect to cloud providers , data centres , peering exchanges , VoIP , Telcos / ISPs and IaaS / PaaS

• Flexible bandwidth up and down , by up to 10 Gbps

• All-inclusive , fully managed service from one provider

Adam Bradshaw , Commercial Director at ServerChoice , said : “ We are proud to be launching the new ServerChoice Connect service . Our ServerChoice data centres assist a range of clients from varying sectors , all of which have differing requirements . However , the one common factor between all these businesses is the demand for increased options and agility .

“ If the last year and a half has taught us anything , it ’ s how quickly circumstances can change and demand can fluctuate . Businesses are all too aware of this and are subsequently more discerning when implementing new components into their IT environment . This was the driving factor for creating ServerChoice Connect . The service provides organisations with unprecedented agility , particularly considering the volatile business landscape many now operate in , and we look forward to working closely with our customers to help them maximise the flexibility provided by this new offering .” ◊ intelligent OPERATIONS www . intelligentdatacentres . com
