Security is a major challenge for private and public companies. Data theft can have dramatic financial and reputational consequences.
By choosing NRB Data Centres, you can be assured that you are collaborating with a national, reliable, multi-operator player, offering a stable solution and also guaranteeing you high-performance cybersecurity solutions (which meet the NIS2 Directive).
To protect its clients from physical data theft, NRB continually invests in its various Data Centres located at its historic site in Herstal, in Villers-le-Bouillet and in Muizen. The buildings have been specially designed to offer maximum security (physical and online).
NRB Data Centres, the ideal solution for your data and applications
A redundant infrastructure
The Data Centres are connected by a redundant fibre optic network. The buildings are also fully redundant. Thanks to this geo-resilient infrastructure, systems, applications and data remain available even in the event of a major incident.
Tier 3 data centres (+)
The NRB Data Centres meet Tier 3 (+) standards issued by the Uptime Institute. This means they offer reliable redundancy (dual servers, multiple power circuits for electricity), fault tolerance and operational maintenance, and a good heat dissipation capacity. The Data Centres are suitable for the high demands of companies for which IT data exchanges are vital.
Physical protection 24/7
NRB’s Data Centres offer total physical protection. A security guard service is in operation 24/7 at the Herstal site. Anyone wishing to enter the buildings must identify themselves, and the premises are continuously filmed thanks to the presence of more than 100 cameras. A detection system also makes it possible to resolve a fire in the shortest possible time.
The assurance of benefiting from the best technologies
NRB has one of the most efficient infrastructures in the country (mainframe, integrated infrastructure) thanks to a continuous search for improvement to provide the best service suited to your needs. Technology watch and strong partnerships make it possible to offer the most advanced technologies in terms of hosting and security.
Eco-efficient Data Centres
NRB is a socially responsible company, aware of its environmental impact. Our facilities are perfectly in line with the recommendations of the European Union Code of Conduct. Several measures have been put in place to reduce the energy consumption of our Data Centres.
- The wind turbine installed at the Herstal site provides 48% of the company’s electricity consumption. Nearly 1,000 photovoltaic panels installed on the roofs also provide green energy to the company and its Data Centres.
- Cold corridors prevent the mixing of cold and hot air in the IT rooms.
- Only high-efficiency equipment is used, such as chillers and server power supply modules.
- The heat produced by the Data Centres is recovered to heat the office floors.
- Gratings have been installed on the floors and are more effective than traditional slabs with holes. They prevent cold air loss where it is not necessary.
