Retarus expands data centre in Singapore

The centre will provide a direct connection for its Cloud Fax Services.

As it eyes to widen its reach in the Asia Pacific region, Retarus Group is planning toexpand its data centre in Singapore, which it will use to provide a direct connection for its Cloud Fax Services to local carriers and internet service providers.

The group said APAC region customers will benefit from the significantly lower latencytimes that would be possible from data centres in Europe or the US.

"As a result of the expansion, Retarus now enables European and American companies to profit from more efficient and dependable communication with their Asian subsidiaries. All data will be processed locally in accordance with the applicable regulations and data privacy requirements," the group said.

The centre is located in a separate and secure section of a leading international international colocation provider.

"Retarus exclusively uses and operates its own equipment, which it operates itself. In order to achieve the ultimate levels of security for sensitive data, the company relies on a multilevel physical security concept. The data centre is also equipped with a failsafe power supply," the group noted.
