iomart Glasgow Data Centre DC1: Middlesex Street Colocation Specs

Status: Operational   |   Location: 88 Middlesex Street, Kinning Park, Glasgow, G41 1EE, Scotland, United Kingdom

Project Overview

The iomart Glasgow Data Centre (DC1) is a purpose-built enterprise colocation facility located on Middlesex Street in Kinning Park, approximately one mile southwest of Glasgow city centre, Scotland. Originally constructed in 2001 and subsequently acquired by iomart in 2007, the single-story facility covers more than 8,200 square feet and is organized across two dedicated data halls. The site was developed to provide reliable hosting and colocation infrastructure for organizations requiring secure, professionally managed environments for mission-critical IT equipment and applications. Its location within Glasgow provides convenient access to the city’s established telecommunications, commercial, and enterprise ecosystem while allowing the facility to serve customers across Scotland. DC1 supports a range of infrastructure requirements, including resilient enterprise hosting, managed colocation, hybrid cloud integration, and distributed IT deployments. Its hybrid cloud capabilities enable customers to combine dedicated physical infrastructure with cloud-based services, providing greater flexibility for workloads that require different performance, security, and scalability characteristics. The facility is particularly suited to Scottish public sector organizations and regional enterprises that require dependable local infrastructure for applications, data, and digital services. The two-hall configuration provides customers with flexible deployment options while supporting the segregation and management of different infrastructure environments. As an established facility with a long operational history, DC1 also provides a mature platform for organizations seeking continuity and predictable hosting services rather than relying exclusively on newer hyperscale developments. Its strategic position within Glasgow’s urban area further supports low-latency connectivity to local businesses, public institutions, network providers, and other digital infrastructure. By combining more than two decades of operational experience with managed colocation, resilient hosting, hybrid cloud integration, and a central Scottish location, the iomart Glasgow Data Centre provides a practical and scalable infrastructure platform for public sector, enterprise, and digital service workloads across Glasgow and the wider Scottish market.
