Our Infrastructure & Business Continuity Framework
Control-C is built on a simple principle: your data should always be accessible, resilient, and under your control, no matter what happens.
To deliver on this, we operate a multi-region, high-availability architecture across New Zealand, combining premium data centre infrastructure with layered redundancy and independent access options.
Primary Infrastructure (Wellington)
Our primary environment is hosted in New Zealand within a premium, carrier-neutral data centre in Wellington, operated by Xtreme Networks, a long-standing provider of critical digital infrastructure for New Zealand businesses.
This facility provides:
- Enterprise-grade connectivity via major telecommunications networks.
- Proven operational reliability with a strong uptime track record.
- Carrier-neutral architecture supporting diverse network paths.
- Onshore data sovereignty, keeping your data within New Zealand jurisdiction.
It forms a robust and secure foundation for Control-C’s backup platform.
Secondary Failover Infrastructure (Auckland)
To ensure resilience beyond a single region, Control-C operates a geographically independent secondary failover environment in Auckland.
Our Auckland site is hosted within the enterprise-tier 2degrees Data Centre, formerly Vocus infrastructure, and is engineered for high availability and continuity.
Key Features
New Zealand Data Sovereignty
All replicated customer data remains onshore under New Zealand legal jurisdiction, supporting audit, accounting, and Inland Revenue compliance requirements.
ISO 27001-Certified Security
The facility maintains internationally recognised information security standards across both physical and logical infrastructure.
2N+1 Power & Infrastructure Resiliency
Fully redundant UPS systems, automated generator arrays, and dual power feeds help eliminate single points of failure.
Advanced Environmental Protection
Includes N+1 climate control, VESDA early smoke detection, and gas-based fire suppression systems.
Carrier-Grade Network Architecture
High-capacity, carrier-grade fibre connectivity enables active-active data replication across regions without relying solely on the public internet.
Multi-Layered Redundancy by Design
Control-C extends beyond traditional backup by providing multiple independent layers of protection.
Dual-Region Data Replication
Built-in geographic redundancy across Wellington and Auckland, separated by region, infrastructure, and seismic profile.
Optional Third Copy to Your Own Cloud Storage
Store an independent copy in your preferred cloud environment, such as AWS or Azure, for additional control.
Downloadable Backups on Demand
Access and retain a local copy of your data at any time.
In-Control NexGen Backapp (Offline Access)
View and work with your data through a secure, browser-based offline environment, even without internet or platform access.
What This Means in Practice
This architecture ensures your data is:
- Not dependent on a single system or platform.
- Not confined to a single geographic location.
- Not restricted to online-only access.
- Not controlled by any one vendor environment.
Instead, you have multiple independent recovery paths designed to support business continuity, audit requirements, and operational resilience.
Business Continuity, Without Compromise
Control-C combines:
- Premium primary infrastructure in Wellington.
- Independent failover capability in Auckland.
- Optional customer-controlled storage.
- Fully exportable datasets.
- Offline accessibility through In-Control.
This creates a true continuity framework, rather than a single-layer backup solution.
A Simple Reality
Without an independent backup solution, many businesses rely solely on live platform availability, which may not meet continuity, audit, or recovery expectations.
Control-C is designed to close that gap by ensuring your data remains:
- Available.
- Portable.
- Independently accessible.
How Much Redundancy Do You Need?
We do not ask customers to choose between safeguards. We provide them all:
- Geographic redundancy.
- Infrastructure redundancy.
- Independent storage options.
- Offline access capability.
Because real business continuity is not about a single layer of protection. It is about having options when it matters most.
