Onyx Group

Onyx Group, established in 1994 and headquartered in Stockton-on-Tees, England, was a provider of IT infrastructure and data management solutions. The company specialized in cloud hosting, business continuity, IT infrastructure management, and workplace recovery services tailored for enterprise clients. Its service portfolio included colocation in its privately-owned UK data centers, cloud security, backup, and comprehensive IT support. Notable clients included well-known businesses such as Sage and Edinburgh Airport.

The company operated a national network of high-security data centers across the UK, including locations in Edinburgh, providing resilient and compliant hosting environments. These facilities were designed with redundant power and cooling systems, advanced physical security, and 24/7 monitoring to ensure high availability for its clients' critical IT systems. Through strategic international partnerships, Onyx Group also offered a global data center presence, enabling low-latency network configurations for a worldwide customer base.

In June 2016, Onyx Group was acquired by Pulsant, another UK-based provider of data center and cloud services. This acquisition was part of Pulsant's strategy to expand its capabilities and market presence within the UK's IT and hosting sector. Following the acquisition, the Onyx brand and its operations were integrated into Pulsant, which continues to leverage the combined infrastructure and expertise to serve a broad range of businesses.
