The Challenge The Solution

IT-Total is one of Sweden’s most exciting and fastest growing businesses, providing the best-in-class IT security, data centre, networking and software solutions, and ‘as a service’ application hosting. Founded in 2011 the business now employs over 100 staff, and boasts an annual turnover of roughly 250 million Swedish kronor. IT-Total has received attention as one of Sweden’s most exciting growth stories, earning the prestigious DI Gasell award for its growth and named HP Partner of the Year in 2017, an outstanding achievement for such a young company.Entering its 6th year, IT-Total was looking to increase its capacity and resilience by adding a secondary data centre, and a partner which could add to its high standards of security, continuity and scalability.

After a considered search, IT-Total decided to bring its services to DigiPlex’s highly secure, award winning and state-of-the-art Stockholm data centre. IT-Total quickly recognised DigiPlex as a partner and growth enabler.The Stockholm centre is home to many outstanding features, all fully compliant with the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO)’s rigorous standards for quality, security, safety and environmental management. DigiPlex also demonstrated the solutions which make it one of the most energy efficient data centres in the world. Its Air-to-Air evaporative cooling system capitalises on the cool, moist atmospheric conditions of the Nordics to deliver extremely efficient cooling. This intuitive approach is further optimised with its ground-breaking concert control solution, an algorithm which allows for cooling with surgical efficiency, based on power consumption.DigiPlex’s capabilities, innovative culture and uninterrupted uptime track-record were so impressive that IT-Total decided to make DigiPlex its primary data centre. Since moving to DigiPlex, IT-Total has continued its impressive growth, winning larger and more demanding clients with solutions which are more secure, resilient and cleaner than ever.
