Press Release Body: The Bunker, providers of Ultra* Secure Data Centres and Managed Services today announces it has been chosen by Find-a-part as their Data Centre partner of choice.
Faced with spiralling colocation costs in London, Find-a-Part required a hosting provider that could not only offer high levels of security that are not present in London Data Centres but were also able to be cost effective in the colocation marketplace. With The Bunker's ex-MOD architecture, combined with our team of technical expert's on-hand 24/7, we had no difficulty fulfilling their requirements
Find-a-Part provides an information service for the recycled parts industry. They run a Premium rate phone service and web site that enables members of the public and motor traders to place requests for new and used car parts, which are then forwarded to subscribing car recyclers and car parts dealers across the UK.
Maintaining their IP range was important to Find-a-Part in order to minimise down-time during the server move. The Bunker worked with Find-a-Part's existing ISP utilizing the benefits of being carrier neutral, providing an innovative solution, which allows them to maintain their current Transit IP range and configuration. The Bunker is large enough to inspire the confidence needed to be a safe, viable colocation provider yet flexible enough to be able to meet Find-a- Part's specific connectivity requirements.
Justin Woodcock at Find-a-Part said, "The Bunker provided a fixed-cost contract, so we don\'t have to worry about unexpected price-rises. We get the same service from The Bunker as we did from our previous co-lo provider at approximately half the price. At all times the staff at The Bunker have been helpful flexible and professional. I would whole-heartedly recommend them to any company that might be feeling the pinch of escalating co-location costs"
