Own Datacenter in Barcelona for enterprise cloud infrastructure
Our technological heart beats in the Osona region, where we host a private datacenter in a unique setting surrounded by nature. Location: Sant Miquel de Balenyà, Osona (Barcelona).
Direct answer
What the Seintec datacenter is
The Seintec datacenter is our own facility in Sant Miquel de Balenyà, in the province of Barcelona, where we host private cloud, servers, backups and continuity platforms. Capacity, service level and operation are defined for each project.
Infrastructure
What lies behind your servers
We operate the installation from start to finish. These are the verified elements of the room where the Seintec cloud platform runs.
Redundant connectivity
10 Gb/s backbone connection via the Xarxa Oberta de Catalunya, with automatic switching to a high-capacity radio link against a remote telecommunications centre.
Protected power supply
Uninterruptible power supply (SAI) systems and generators to maintain the room in the event of a power cut.
High-efficiency climate control
Continuous thermal monitoring of the room, scaled for the actual density of racks in production.
Scalable capacity
Over 150 m² of server room with multi-petabyte capacity, scalable as the platform grows.
24/7 operation
In-house operations centre providing continuous monitoring of availability, capacity, and performance.
Testing laboratory
Staging environment to validate projects and changes before deploying them to production.
Seintec Datacenter
Proprietary infrastructure, not resale
The platform our clients use is the one we design, assemble, and maintain ourselves. This means we can physically intervene on the hardware, adjust the architecture to a specific case, and respond without depending on an external provider's escalation process.

Data residency
Your data remains in Spain, in the province of Barcelona, within the European regulatory framework. You know which building they are located in, who manages them, and whom to call. For many companies with specific contractual or sector-related requirements, this is the deciding factor in whether they can adopt cloud services.
Continuity and recovery
The datacenter also serves as the destination for backups and replicas for clients who maintain infrastructure on their own premises. Backup policies, restoration tests, and disaster recovery plans are executed from here.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Where is the Seintec datacenter located?
- Located in Sant Miquel de Balenyà, Osona, Barcelona. This is our own infrastructure, not space leased from a third party.
- Does the data remain in Spain?
- Yes. The infrastructure is located in Spanish territory and operates under the European data protection regulatory framework (GDPR).
- Is it possible to visit the datacenter?
- Yes, via scheduled visit. It is common for companies evaluating the service to want to see the facility and speak with the team operating it.
- What happens if there is a power failure or the main fibre connection goes down?
- Power is sustained by SAI and generator sets, and connectivity automatically switches to a backup radio link connected to a remote telecommunications centre.
- Which services can be hosted in the datacenter?
- Private cloud, cloud servers, dedicated servers, housing, backups and replicas for disaster recovery. Each project is sized by capacity, criticality and scope of operation.
- Do you publish a Tier classification?
- We do not publish a Tier classification on the website. If your project requires a specific certification or facility level, we review it before proposing an architecture so we do not promise something unverifiable.

How businesses use our datacenter
Uses
What can be hosted
The Sant Miquel de Balenyà datacenter serves three kinds of need: companies that want their servers out of the office (housing or colocation), companies that prefer not to own hardware (dedicated servers, VPS and private cloud) and companies that need a copy or replica outside their premises (backup and disaster recovery).
- Rack housing for customer-owned servers
- Managed dedicated servers and private cloud
- Off-site backups and replication for recovery
- Virtual desktops and centralised applications
Infrastructure
What to know about the facility
The room exceeds 150 m² and has a 10 Gb/s backbone uplink over the Xarxa Oberta de Catalunya, with automatic failover to a high-capacity radio link to a remote telecommunications hub. The facility is operated directly by Seintec, with no intermediaries.
We don't publish details that could compromise physical or logical security. Additional technical data is shared at proposal stage under the appropriate confidentiality terms.
Decision
Regional datacenter or hyperscaler
A large cloud provider offers global scale; a regional datacenter run by the same team that manages your infrastructure offers proximity, direct contact, data in Spain and accountability for the whole. For many companies the sensible option is to combine both by workload, and we help decide what goes where.
Process
What a datacenter migration looks like
Inventory of equipment and applications, review of power and connectivity, rack or virtual platform design, an agreed change window, move or migration, and functional testing with the customer before the service goes live. Every phase is documented.
Related services
Beyond rack space
The datacenter's value isn't just space: the same team manages the platform, the network, backups and support. That allows us to offer managed servers with monitoring, verified backups, disaster recovery replication, public IPv4 addressing and BGP available per project, and dedicated fibre available to the customer's site.
Companies that already have a support provider can contract hosting only, with controlled access and agreed procedures.
- Monitoring and support of the hosted platform
- Backups and replication with restore tests
- Dedicated connectivity between site and datacenter
- Architecture documentation handed to the customer
Practical questions
Common questions about the datacenter
Where is the data physically located? In Sant Miquel de Balenyà, province of Barcelona, Spain. Can I visit the facility? Visits are arranged by appointment with access control. Can I combine it with Microsoft 365 or another public cloud? Yes, it's a common setup. What happens if the main connection fails? Traffic fails over automatically to the backup radio link.
Profile
Which companies it suits best
Companies with servers in the office that can no longer guarantee power, cooling or physical security; organisations running ERP or critical applications that prefer a managed environment in Spain; and businesses that need an off-site copy to meet their own continuity plan. It is especially useful for companies in Catalonia that value talking directly to the team operating the infrastructure and, when needed, visiting the facility in person.
Migration can be gradual: backups first, then less critical servers and finally the main applications, validating each step with the business.
