SCC has sold two datacentres to Pulsant in a move its Co-CEO revealed it had been mulling for “some time”.

The Birmingham-based reseller and MSP has offloaded its datacentre in its home city, as well as one in Fareham.

The carve-out deal includes the transfer of a “high-quality roster of colocation-only clients” to Pulsant.

Engineers and operational team members from both locations will transfer to Pulsant on completion of the deal (slated for April 2025).

SCC Co-CEO James Rigby said the move will enable SCC – which ranked seventh in the recent Oxygen 250 – to invest in its “managed service hybrid offerings”.

“SCC has been carefully reviewing options for the future of our data centres for some time,” he said.

“A clear priority was to find a specialist partner that will continue to invest in and operate these facilities for the long-term and with whom we can build a strategic relationship for the provision of these services to our clients.

“Ensuring continuity for our customers, opportunities for our people, and a future-proofed infrastructure was critical in our decision. Pulsant’s expertise and commitment to growing its UK data centre footprint made them the ideal choice, and we look forward to working closely with Pulsant during this transition.”

Billing itself as the UK’s “leading regional edge infrastructure”, Pulsant claims its platformEDGE infrastructure connects 12 data centres. 

Rob Coupland, CEO of Pulsant, said: “With the addition of two new data centres, we’ve expanded our UK coverage, strengthening our presence near key economic hubs that have traditionally been underserved in terms of digital infrastructure – particularly Birmingham, the UK’s second city.”
