TÜVIT zertifiziert erfolgreich Rechenzentrum in Serbien

The certificate was presented by TÜV NORD CEO Dr. Dirk Stenkamp in the presence of the Serbian Minister of Information and Telecommunications, Mihailo Jovanović. The data center thus meets criteria for maximum availability, reliability and security.

EN50600 is a European standard for the planning, construction and management of data centers and similar digital infrastructures. Currently, only eight data centers in Western European countries have a TÜVIT certificate of the highest availability class 4, making the Government Data Center in Kragujevac the first in Southeast Europe.

The government data center is now able to offer services to its users in public administration. The certification also sets the data center apart from other facilities and brings international recognition.  For the scope of the certification, TÜVIT confirms state-of-the-art data center construction and operation as well as technical building equipment at the highest level.

“Data centers have great potential to save energy, raw materials and costs. They are the backbone of digitalization. Our standards stand for reliability, protection and quality - especially in international competition. Security is the key to the digital future. I am extremely pleased that we as TÜV NORD GROUP can support the Serbian government here at the data center in Kragujevac,” emphasized Dirk Stenkamp, CEO of TÜV NORD GROUP.
