Backbone

Have you ever wanted to know how your data centre, wide area network or internet connection is performing while on the move?

Well now you can, with the Backbone Connect App – the UK’s first data centre and network monitoring iPhone app.

As a Backbone Connect customer you’ll get useful performance and status information about your network connections and data centre straight to your iPhone.

•Find out how much power your rack is using
•See how much traffic is crossing your internet connection or network
