The data centres used by my Department are split between central government (OGCIO) and Departmental locations. The OGCIO’s Managed Desktop and Managed Hosting services use a number of data centres which are ISO 27001 certified and are located across Dublin City and the greater Dublin area. These data centres are Government owned facilities. The government data centres used directly by my Department are also ISO certified and are located in Dublin and County Clare. One data centre in County Clare is housed in the Department's own office.
