In the heart of crisis – one infrastructure provider never flinched.
As missile alerts echoed across Israel and cyberattacks surged in parallel, the country’s digital operations faced an unprecedented stress test. While national infrastructure was under threat, MedOne-Israel’s largest and most secure data center provider-remained fully operational. No disruption. No downtime. Not even a second of hesitation.
This is not a hypothetical scenario. This is wartime infrastructure in action.
Infrastructure Built for Crisis
MedOne operates over 25,000 square meters of colocation capacity across underground, fortified data centers. Each facility is engineered to remain fully functional during extreme physical threats, national emergencies, and network-level attacks.
Backed by Berkshire Partners, MedOne’s approach to infrastructure is grounded in one principle: resilience must be real, not theoretical.
Key capabilities include:
- Tier III certified and fully redundant systems (power, cooling, and connectivity)
- DRaaS with RTO of minutes and RPO of seconds, powered by Zerto
- Continuous data replication and automatic failover between geographically distributed sites
- Underground shielding against kinetic attacks and environmental instability
- Sovereign cloud architecture designed to comply with Israeli regulations and mission-critical standards
Disaster Recovery in Real Time
While DR planning is common across the industry, MedOne’s systems were activated in real conditions, supporting:
- Government ministries and national agencies
- Hospitals and healthcare networks
- Financial institutions processing real-time data
- AI training clusters and hyperscale workloads
Clients with DRaaS deployments experienced zero data loss and full continuity, even during simultaneous missile strikes and regional outages.
Sovereign Cloud – Underground and Always Available
One of MedOne’s strategic differentiators is its Israeli sovereign cloud environment, offered alongside colocation and hybrid infrastructure services. During the current conflict, this allowed clients to retain:
- Data jurisdiction within national borders
- Access to mission-critical workloads despite global disruptions
- Physical and cyber protection without dependency on international infrastructure
Coupled with direct access to submarine cable landings, national fiber, and all Tier 1 carriers, the company ensured uptime for organizations at both local and global scale.
Lessons for Global Infrastructure Leaders
MedOne’s wartime operations highlight an uncomfortable truth for the global data center industry:
Resilience is no longer a compliance checkbox—it’s a strategic imperative.
- Can your workloads fail over in minutes, not hours?
- Is your infrastructure protected from physical attacks, not just logical ones?
- Are your backups sovereign, secure, and instantly accessible?
Too many providers rely on DR plans that exist on paper but fail in practice. MedOne’s experience offers a proven model of disaster-proof architecture designed for the real world.
Conclusion
As Israel continues to navigate a complex and evolving conflict, MedOne stands as a case study in what real infrastructure resilience looks like. The company’s performance during this time reflects not only on engineering design, but on leadership, strategy, and operational discipline.
In a world where threats are increasingly unpredictable, MedOne is already live-proofed for them.
