Baltic Data Center Operators DEAC and DLC in Partnership

Data center operator DEAC (Digitalas Ekonomikas Attīstības Centrs Ltd), in cooperation Duomenų Logistikos Centras, UAB (Data Logistics Center or DLC), one of the largest operators of data networks and data centers in the Baltics, pooled their resources and created a DR solution for enterprises, based on 2 data centers in Riga (Latvia) and Vilnius (Lithuania).

Now DEAC provides its customers with the opportunity to choose the main and backup data center infrastructure location either in Riga or Vilnius. This solution allows businesses to continue their operation even in case of an incident.

“The geographic location of two Baltic countries expands the possibilities of storage and backups in reliable and independent data centers,” comments Andris Gailitis, CEO, DEAC.

“It is difficult to foresee the impact of information systems’ failures and recovery times for a company’s operations and profits. Therefore, we are taking steps to prevent potential data loss,” adds Darius Zailskas, CEO, Data Logistics Center.

In 2020 both companies were acquired by the Swiss infrastructure investment fund managed by Quaero Capital to strengthen resources and accelerate their development.

Riga is already a beneficial location for foreign companies as an outsourcing center, back office for data or consolidation of IT functions. Likewise Vilnius is also a reliable location. Combining the resources of the Latvian and Lithuanian companies allows them to provide even more secure BC solutions.

DR principles imply deployment of a redundant IT infrastructure in a geographically remote data center. The solutions for the implementation of a DR plan (DRaaS) ensure BC.

DEAC and Data Logistics Center comply with  security standards and provide network connections with encryption.
