Perth iX History
Perth iX was built by an IT visionary in 2001 at a cost of approximately $3.6 million. During 2005, an additional upgrade of core infrastructure was also undertaken at a cost in excess of $500,000. A further $600,000 has recently been invested in 2008 to increase redundancy for your critical infrastructure.
Perth iX is built on the ground floor of the Quadrant a few metres from St Georges Terrace in the heart of Perth's CBD. No expense was spared in the quality of materials used and critical equipment was often over specified. This has resulted in triple redundancies for power, the very best in climate controls and unsurpassed security controls.
The Asian economic crisis led many resources companies in Perth to turn to IT and the dot-com-boom had this city wired up like no other. IT spending has now returned to a realistic level as broadband connectivity and increasing data usage converges to a critical requirement for most organisations.
The global landscape of terror has meant Perth (the most remote city in the world) is increasingly becoming a port-of-choice for redundancy.
With the data centre currently at 95% occupancy, and client retention at an all time high, PerthiX is in excellent health, and poised to continue its success.
