In 2009, with Stijn Koster from i3D.net, data center expert Richard Boogaard built the first Smartdc data center in the Van Nelle Factory in Rotterdam. Today, it is one of the largest in the region, connecting with multiple Tier-1 in-house carriers and major IXPs. With Smartdc you are always online. Our strong focus on performance ensures companies are online 24/7. Smartdc is all about quality and uptime and is a true reflection of the Rotterdam culture: reliable and no-nonsense. The Rotterdam data center is the largest one in the Zuid-Holland province with its 3500 square meters surface.
