Press Release Summary: RapidSwitch is a leading server hosting company in the UK. We
host over 5,000 servers for a wide range of clients, employ over twenty staff, and
have a multi-million pound turnover.


Press Release Body: Maidenhead, England, 17 July, 2008 -- RapidSwitch, a leading
supplier of dedicated servers and one of the fastest growing hosting companies in
the UK, is building a new data centre with a 20,000 server capacity, to meet growing
customer demand.

Fit out work on the new site has commenced, and it will be ready for service in
early 2009. The new site is near Maidenhead in Berkshire, close to the existing
RapidSwitch Hosting Centre, enabling direct connectivity between the two sites at
multiple 10 gigabit speeds. There is also diverse connectivity from the new site to
London, again at multiple 10 gigabit speeds. The data centre is 600 racks in size,
which will give a total capacity of 20,000 servers.

The new site has been in planning since August 2007 in response to continued
customer demand, with a great deal of effort put into finding the ideal location
with appropriate power and connectivity. The data centre will act as technical space
for new services to be installed in, meaning existing services will stay where they
are and will not be disrupted. We will be releasing more information about the site
over the next few months, including a photo build diary of the site.
