Data Centre Portfolio
At Cybernest we have embraced the following philosophy- "Getting Things Right"
The desire to do things right is centred on our customers, our business and the environment.
The business of hosting data centre services and the way we approach it does not take a short term view. Hosting services is a strategic business for Cybernest and therefore sustainability is an important factor in the design of our Data Centre facilities. We do not skimp in the environmental design and availability that would be provided in the facility. We vigorously evaluate every component and every design.
Cybernest has a formidable array of assets and skills:
- 9 700 square metres of data centre space - more than anyone else in sub-Saharan Africa.
- Six data centres in South Africa, four in Gauteng and two in the Western Cape.
- Approximately 600 full-time IT specialists.
- Over 80 hosting customers, including FIFA in the run-up to the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
TelePresence facilities, the most advanced videoconferencing technology available, between Gauteng and the Western Cape.
Cybernest assists customers cut costs. The enterprise cost pressure is even greater when coupled with the worldwide drive to implement energy-saving green data centres.

Cybernest has taken virtualisation beyond the conventional server level by creating an end-to-end virtualised Data Centre environment that frees customers from the traditional constraints of physical infrastructure.
IT managers battle to ensure that legacy dedicated resources is efficiently deployed and that, by contrast, virtualisation or sharing is where the cost savings are. What Cybernest has done differently is to take virtualisation to the next level with an end-to-end virtualised data centre architecture that seamlessly converges telco and IT services
Cybernest's virtualised hosting solutions uses the backbone network itself as the underlying platform. By placing your IT in the core of our network, Cybernest's hosting services deliver significant operational performance and cost benefits to your business.
Another advantage of Cybernest's fully virtualised data centre architecture, based on Cisco DC3.0 architecture, is the speed and agility with which connectivity, storage and servers can be provisioned. The long build-out and scaling timelines often associated with data centre provisioning no longer apply.
