Your IT infrastructure in a Belgian data center
Host your servers and applications in a data center where you can count on a high level of continuity, security, and availability.
You can choose between Dedicated hosting (colocation), where your own physical servers are housed in the data center, or Shared cloud hosting on our shared infrastructure.
Which hosting solution is right for your organization?
You can host your IT infrastructure using your own physical servers in the data center or use our shared infrastructure. Both options differ in terms of infrastructure, management, and included services.

Infrastructure, management, and security
Depending on your hosting plan, we include the following services as standard or optional.
Infrastructure
Your servers and applications will be housed in our own facility within a Belgian Tier IV data center.
For dedicated hosting (colocation), the necessary hardware can be purchased or leased through Office-IT.
Proactive monitoring
We continuously monitor the performance of your server environment. If we detect an anomaly or a potential problem, we analyze the report and take action as necessary. That way, you don’t have to keep track of the monitoring yourself.
Maintenance
We coordinate scheduled maintenance with you in advance and, whenever possible, perform it during off-peak hours. This is how we minimize the impact of maintenance work on your day-to-day operations.
Patches & Updates
We implement and manage the necessary patches, security updates, and system firmware updates to keep your server environment up to date and address known vulnerabilities.
Endpoint security
Your servers are protected by an endpoint security solution. In addition, we provide secure connections between your cloud environment and your business location(s).
Backup & replication
We create a local backup of your hosted environment every day, which is retained for 14 days by default. In addition, a copy is transferred in encrypted form to a second physical location, ensuring that a copy is available for recovery even in the event of a major failure at the primary data center location.
Not sure which hosting plan is right for you?
Which hosting solution is the best fit depends on your current IT infrastructure and the services you want to handle yourself or leave to Office-IT. We’ll review your situation and recommend the plan that’s right for you.
Our own space in a Belgian Tier IV data center
In 2023, we invested in our own space in a Tier IV data center operated by Datacenter United.
Tier IV is the highest reliability level according to the Uptime Institute’s international standard. The data center infrastructure is designed to be fully redundant. Critical systems such as power supply, cooling, and connectivity are configured with dual or multiple redundancy to ensure there is no single point of failure.
Datacenter United backs its Tier IV infrastructure with a 99.999% uptime guarantee, which equates to less than five minutes of unplanned downtime per year.
Certified data center environment
Datacenter United also holds independent certifications in the areas of information security, quality, sustainability, and operational processes.

Want to host your server infrastructure in a data center?
We’ll determine which hosting plan best suits your infrastructure and which services you’d like to handle yourself or leave to Office-IT.
This is exactly the cloud solution we needed, without having to invest in our own infrastructure!
