In the world of IT, every second of downtime counts. System unavailability can mean lost transactions, production delays, reputational damage, and millions in financial losses. That’s why the statistic achieved by Talex commands respect: over 5,700 days of uninterrupted data center operation. That’s more than 15 years of continuous uptime without a single major outage. How was this level of reliability achieved?

Continuity as the Foundation of Trust

In an industry where uptime is measured in “five nines” (99.999% availability), every extra hour of uninterrupted service matters. At Talex, this isn’t a marketing claim—it’s a proven record, verified through independent audits and internationally recognized certifications.

For clients, this means one thing: peace of mind. Even when the world faces crises, blackouts, or cyberattacks, their systems and data remain continuously available.

Redundancy at Every Level

The secret to this success lies in infrastructure design. Every element in the Talex Data Center has its backup counterpart:

• 15 independent fiber-optic operators – even if several providers experience an outage, data continues to flow through alternate routes.
• Dual power supply paths and additional generators – systems automatically switch to alternative sources in case of power failure.
• Redundant cooling and air-conditioning systems – because data requires stable environmental conditions.
• Advanced monitoring and control systems – continuous supervision of environmental parameters, security systems, and access control across all data centers.

This level of redundancy ensures that even a single component failure has no impact on business continuity.

Europe’s Highest Certification Standards

Talex was the first company in Poland to achieve certification for EN 50600 Class 4 and ISO 22237 Class 4 compliance—the highest possible standards for data center design and operation. These levels are required by, among others, EU agencies and major financial institutions that demand absolute certainty regarding the safety and availability of their data.

Although Polish regulations formally allow a lower level (Class 3), clients choose Talex precisely because it delivers a higher one. In practice, this means a Polish company has built infrastructure that meets—and even exceeds—the expectations of the most demanding global clients.

Perfection Over Compromise

From the very beginning, the founders of Talex have followed one guiding principle: “good enough” is never good enough. Every modernization is treated not as a maintenance task, but as an opportunity to raise the standard.

This approach sometimes means higher upfront investment, but over time it pays off. Clients—from banks to global enterprises—trust Talex because they know their infrastructure is managed by a company that refuses to cut corners.

Why Do Polish Companies Still Rely on “Basement Servers”?

Despite clear statistics and certifications, many Polish organizations still store data in local server rooms. The reasons are often psychological rather than technical: “We’ve always done it this way,” “It’s safer on-site,” “External services are more expensive.”

In reality, these assumptions are misleading. Energy, security, cooling, and auditing costs are rarely calculated in full—and every outage carries a massive financial and operational impact. Only after a serious incident do many realize that outsourcing to a professional data center is both cheaper and safer.

A Lesson for the Future

The story of 5,700 days of uninterrupted operation proves that Polish data centers can compete with—and even outperform—the world’s biggest players. It’s living proof that investing in perfection, certification, and redundancy pays off.

In a world where every second matters, organizations must ask themselves: Can we really afford to risk downtime when a proven solution has been operating flawlessly for more than a decade?

Business continuity is not a luxury—it’s the foundation of trust. Talex demonstrates that a Polish company can deliver the highest standard of availability—without compromises, without interruptions, and without excuses.
