ChunkyChips reveals Data Centre Expansion Plan
October 29th, 2014 Glenn FlowersHello Mac Mini :)
October 2nd, 2014 Glenn Flowers
We have taken delivery of our first hosted Mac Mini today and doesn’t it look good!
A Mac Mini can be an affordable way to have your own dedicated server.
As you can see, in spite of their awesome power, Minis have an incredibly small footprint (the above picture shows a Mini sitting at the very rear of one our server trays in a 1U rackspace next to its own NAS drive).
We can supply these at a lost cost monthly rental with short term contracts or we can colo them for you.
We are one of the only UK data centers currently offering this, so please get in touch with us for a quote.
New Network Status Twitter Feed
September 9th, 2014 Glenn FlowersChunkyChips today launched a dedicated Twitter feed to update Clients on Network Status.
Quoted Glenn Flowers;
“With an amazing growth in our Customer base over the last two years, we’ve certainly recognised the need to keep clients informed of any network issues that may affect their connection or colocation.
A dedicated Twitter feed to Network support means we can update our customers via an independent feed and customers can still check our status via their mobile networks even if their main connection has issues.
The ChunkyChips Network is already hugely resilient and we are working to build even further layers of redundancy in future, however we know that communication with our customers and letting them know of potential issues is equally, if not more important, than the issue itself.”

August 15th, 2014 Glenn Flowers
This is a tricky one: You’re looking at a new property for your business and you see a BT or Virgin branded box on the wall in the comms room, suggesting some sort of fibre is present already.
Once you move in, does that fibre become yours? Read the rest of this entry »
