Abstract:
There is provided a method comprising: receiving, by an apparatus of a data center, a request message from a server computer of said data center, the apparatus and the server computer being physically separate entities communicatively coupled with each other, said message requesting data center specific information stored into a read-only memory area of the apparatus; initiating deciphering of the request message in response to receiving the request message; and as a response to successfully deciphering the request message, transmitting a response message to the server computer, said message comprising the data center specific information acquired from the read-only memory area of the apparatus.

Claim (Index 14):
A data center system comprising:\n at least one apparatus; and at least one on-line server computer, wherein on-line refers to a working mode where a cloud-based software application of a customer is running and providing an intended service, said at least one apparatus and said at least one on-line server computer being physically separate entities communicatively coupled with each other, wherein the at least one apparatus and the at least one server computer are configured to perform operations comprising: sending, by the at least one server computer, a ciphered request message to the at least one apparatus, said message requesting data center specific information from a read-only memory area of said at least one apparatus; receiving, by the at least one apparatus, the request message from the at least one server computer, said message requesting data center specific information stored into a read-only memory area of the at least one apparatus; initiating, by the at least one apparatus, deciphering of the request message in response to receiving the request message; as a response to successfully deciphering the request message, transmitting, by the at least one apparatus, a response message to the at least one server computer, said message comprising the data center specific information acquired from the read-only memory area of the at least one apparatus; as a response to the sending, initiating, by the at least one server computer, receiving a response message from the at least one apparatus; in response to receiving the response message comprising the data center specific information, determining, by the at least one server computer, a round-trip time, based on the transmitting the request message and the receiving the response message, or determining, by the at least one server computer, a received signal quality based on the received response message; and discarding, by the at least one server computer, the received data center specific information if the determined round-trip time exceeds a threshold or if the determined received signal quality is equal to or below a threshold, wherein the data center specific information comprises at least one of a jurisdiction identifier, a data center identifier uniquely identifying the data center, and pre-stored geolocation data, the data center specific information being stored in a read-only memory area of the apparatus, the read-only memory being a write once memory area before the data center specific information is stored in said memory, wherein the data center comprises a plurality of server computers each communicatively coupled with the apparatus, the apparatus configured to provide said data center specific information to each of the plurality of server computers.
