Cloud hosting firm UKFast is set to expand its Trafford-based data centre offering with a million-pound investment in Dell server technology, further bolstering the company’s strong position in the thriving UK ecommerce market.

The data centre investment enables customers to get online faster and process data at ever more impressive speeds. The additional hardware allows UKFast to deliver new automated launch functionality, enabling customers to launch a new server within minutes.   

Lawrence Jones, CEO of UKFast, said: “In the last eight years we have developed our business alongside our partnership with Dell. Working with a reliable technology provider, combined with our incredible support and expertise, we are guaranteeing the best possible service for our customers. We are in position to launch a dedicated server faster than ever before, which is great news for the ecommerce marketplace.”

Peter Barnes, executive director at Dell, said: “We are delighted to be working with UKFast as it continues to grow and thrive.  We recognise that companies of all sizes benefit when they have access to reliable, fast and future ready technology.  We are helping UKFast customers unlock their potential.”

UKFast’s data centre complex comprises 30,000 sq ft. of enterprise-grade hosting facilities, which are ISO 27001 and 9001 certified and secured to UK government IL4 standards.
