Case Study: Blacknight Solutions achieves 99.99% uptime and streamlined on-site operations with Digital Realty

Blacknight - Clear Communications at the Core of Strong Partnership

Blacknight, a 100% Irish hosting, colocation and domain registrar founded in 2000, needed a dedicated Dublin data centre partner to support thousands of mission‑critical online customers. With its Carlow HQ almost 100 km from Dublin, the company required guaranteed power and connectivity, on‑site staff access, strong security and the ability to scale as it moved more servers into third‑party facilities.

Blacknight chose Interxion and now houses hardware in a private suite at DUB1 with leased office space for on‑site staff. Interxion provides 99.99% power availability, ISP/telco connectivity, high security, 24x7 hands‑and‑eyes support and the power density needed for blade upgrades. The partnership has reduced travel and maintenance costs, ensured reliable uptime and given Blacknight the scalable, responsive infrastructure to adapt and grow its services.
