The Data Center

Our servers are housed in a multi-million dollar data facility; which is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Among the equipment installed in the data center are 7500 series Cisco routers, a 7 terabyte IBM robotic tape library, IBM RS/6000 SP supercomputers, a 200 KVA UPS emergency power system, and a 2,000 gallon diesel generator.

     

Hours of Operation and Security.

The Data Center operates  24 hours a day, 7 Days a week, and has technicians on hand to deal with any server issues that may arise.

There are three levels of security. General access to the building is governed by proximity badge system. Access to secure areas is restricted by a biometric security system, and finally people  are verified by a palm scanner before entering.

 

Your server is the cornerstone of your company's data center. Securing it properly is paramount.

However, even the most sophisticated office security systems have many loopholes that make your company’s proprietary data vulnerable. The data center's 100% automated security clearances provide the assurances you demand without the inconveniences and potential risks.     

        

Stopping fires before they start.

The Data Center is equipped with a  fire suppression system; which mixes non-toxic FM200 gas with oxygen to prevent oxygen in the facility from fueling the flames before they grow out of control. Important, especially considering that, in the face of a major blaze, the heat from the flames and the water used to extinguish them pose more immediate threats to a server than do the actual flames. Now that’s the protection and assurance you need.

  

How Prepared will you be during a blackout?

The data center has reserve energy from two sources. A high-power battery backup system and a diesel generator. The battery backup kicks in the moment that power is lost. Simultaneously, the diesel generator is activated to take over in the event that the outage exceeds the capacity of the battery system. Capable of powering the Data Center for an extended period the generator concurrently replenishes the batteries to take over again if the generator expires. Transfer between the generator and the batteries is seamless, allowing the Data Center to run continuously with no power interruptions.

  

Ultra-Fast Network!
Through combining bundles of fiber optics with the redundant network engineering, we're able create alternate routes through which data can travel. This effectively maximizes the throughput speed and capacity of each strand of fiber-optic cable. The result is an ultra-fast, ultra-reliable network connection on which you and your customer can rely. We use Multiple Redundant T3 connections which are 29 times faster than a T1 (Terrestrial Backbone) connection. We have an ATM (Asynchronus Transfer Mode) Nationwide Network with peering agreements with dozens of Networks (Peering enables the data to get to end users faster), and a SONET (Synchronous Optical Network).

The first link between your customer and your Web site is two complex "rings" of fiber-optic  cable known as a Synchronous Optical Network, or SONET. The SONET rings act as links in a chain that connect to a virtually indestructible OC-3 pipe, which then links the Data Center to the Internet. The rings are synchronized, which allows the data to be temporarily redirected through the alternate ring until the primary ring is functional. We have direct connections to major Internet Hubs on the East and West Coasts. (MAE EAST,  MAE WEST and Chicago).

   

Individual locking hardware cabinets.
High-grade locks and tinted glass secure the doors of each cabinet, serving as yet another clearance point.
