How our Berlin headquarters supports customers
Our Hyve Managed Hosting GmbH (Hyve Germany) branch presents significant opportunities for our customers. Whether you are new to the German market, considering migrating from on-premise to the cloud, or re-considering your current provider, we have outlined the benefits and the process of working with Hyve Germany below.
Consolidate and moderniZe your infrastructure
Migrating from on-premise to cloud hosting will reduce risk to your business and consolidate your infrastructure. On-premise solutions have an innate risk of downtime and data loss, with disasters or building damage risking the servers, power outages causing downtime, and even theft of equipment. Hosting your own servers also comes with significant capital expenditure, both in the initial set-up, and then regularly through hardware upgrades. You will also need in-house expertise to ensure smooth running.
Our cloud solutions remove the risks of downtime and data loss, with our architecture designed with multiple layers of redundancies to ensure there is no single point of failure. This means we can guarantee 100% network uptime, and 99.999% cloud server uptime.
You can migrate to our top of the line cloud platforms without the capital expenditure of setting up your own, and your software and hardware will be kept up to date, without the costs of regular upgrades.
Our cloud experts take all of the pressure of managing your infrastructure out of your hands, with engineers available 24/7/365 to support you.
Data sovereignty
EU regulations require that companies in the EU store their data within the EU, or within a jurisdiction with similar levels of protection. For many companies who currently store their data outside of Europe, this means they need a European hosting provider.
According to a 2020 whitepaper from the European Parliament, ‘Another growing concern for EU Member States is their lack of control over data produced on their territory…European governments have started to move away from cloud solutions offered by non-EU companies and to instead deploy European-designed cloud solutions.’
Our Berlin office will support our existing Frankfurt data center, allowing German companies working with Hyve to maintain data sovereignty. From our experience working with German companies, we understand the importance of keeping data native – both for security and to reduce latency.
Compliance
For companies entering the German market, the rules and regulations can be challenging. Working with Hyve Germany, we can support you with compliance when setting up your infrastructure, and when managing your platforms, allowing you to focus on your business.
All of our data centers are run in accordance with European data protection regulations, and we hold internationally recognized certifications in ISO 27001 (Information Security), ISO 27017 (Cloud Security), and ISO 9001 (Management Systems), so you can be confident your data is safe.
A new option amongst hyperscalers
The German market for cloud hosting is dominated by hyperscalers – amongst providers such as Rackspace and AWS, our small-business ethos stands out. We pride ourselves on extra-mile support, with our expert engineers acting as an extension of your business. With Hyve taking on the burden of managing your infrastructure, you can focus on your growth in the booming German market.
We are bringing our industry-leading expertise in speed, scalability and security to the German market. For businesses of all shapes and sizes operating in Germany, these are must-haves.
