How we report

Servnet's news and analysis is produced by the Servnet News Desk — the honest editorial identity for our infrastructure coverage. We do not invent named human journalists or fabricate credentials. The News Desk brings the same domain knowledge our engineers and procurement specialists use every day: what a development means for the servers, storage, networking and security kit that UK organisations actually buy and run.

Every article is built on a named primary source — a vendor press release, an official filing, a regulator's publication, a benchmark or a first-party announcement — and every factual claim is traceable back to it. Where we cite a figure, that figure comes from the source, not from us. The primary source and any supporting sources are listed, with dates, at the foot of each article so you can check our working.

Our core fact-checking rule is simple: cite or drop. If a claim cannot be tied to a credible, named source, it does not appear. We would rather publish a smaller, verifiable story than pad it with numbers we cannot stand behind. When something is our interpretation rather than a reported fact, we say so plainly — analysis is labelled as analysis, never dressed up as data.

We are a UK IT infrastructure reseller, and our coverage is written for the people who make infrastructure decisions here. The test we apply to every story is: what does this mean for what you buy, deploy and support? That buyer's lens is the point of the desk — the same news, decoded for procurement, capacity planning and total cost of ownership rather than for headlines.

News moves, and sources are sometimes updated or superseded. When we learn that something we published is wrong or has changed materially, we correct it and update the article's modified date. Articles are dated on publication and on last update so you always know how current the analysis is.

We sell IT infrastructure, so we will not pretend to be a disinterested newsroom. What we commit to is honesty about that: we report developments on their merits, we do not overstate what an announcement means for supply or price, and we keep the reporting separate from the sales pitch. Where an article suggests a next step, it points to a free tool or a plain-English resource — the numbers stay vendor-neutral.
