Redundancy and resilience – Interview with Gerald Miersch

In the interview published on eco.de, we discuss the significance of the topic of “geo-redundancy in Data Centers”. Gerald Miersch, Head of Market and Strategy at PFALZKOM, explains why it is becoming increasingly important to store sensitive data at multiple locations, especially in view of the NIS2 directive. Geo-redundancy protects against cyber risks and natural disasters by ensuring seamless high availability and disaster recovery.

Gerald Miersch emphasizes the advantages of partnering with specialist providers such as PFALZKOM, which offers several certified fire compartmentation in its Data Centers and has entered into cooperation agreements with other operators for even greater security of customer data. Gerald Miersch also emphasizes the role of standards such as DIN EN 50600 in ensuring the resilience and availability of customer data: “As we systematically identify potential security risks through the standard, it reduces the risk of availability restrictions or Data Center outages. This standard therefore provides reliable guidance for suitable dual-site and disaster recovery locations for demanding customers. Our Rhine-Neckar II Data Center is even certified in accordance with DIN EN 50600 up to high availability class 4.”
