Our Network &
Infrastructure
Network
Operations
Located in the heart of Makati
City, Philippines, with a
redundant network backup in downtown
Orlando, our data center has had
many advantages available but it
was all hard work to get
started. In the end, there is
nothing like being able to say
that we own all of our own
equipment. Our 100% Cisco and
Linux powered network was built
and is maintained by our
technicians. When a problem
arises, our tech's are the ones
to respond.
Data Center
75% of web hosting companies do
not have their own Data Center
and have no access to their
servers without the assistance
of a 3rd party. If an issue ever
arises, we can physically go to
the server within 10 minutes and
address the issue without
relying on someone else. That is
priceless and peace of mind for
you, the client. Situated in
Kissimmee Florida we are
connected via three internet
pipes which connect your VPS
server to the rest of the world.
Unlike other ISPS which may have
a series of T1's
(1.544mbit/sec), our connection
to the internet comprises of a
full OC-12 (655mbit/sec) SONET
connection to UUNET, as well as
a gigabit ethernets
(1000mbit/sec each) to Time
Warner Telecom.
We
offer Ultra Fast Servers
connected via Redundant,
High-Speed Fiber-Optic Backbones
from Tier 1 Bandwidth Providers.
Time Warner communications --
Time Warner Telecom is rated the
#1 Commercial ISP in the USA by
Network Magazine. Their massive
network infrastructure, with
over 17,000 route-miles of
fiber, allows peering with a
high percentage of Residential
connections (Your customers!).
UUnet fiber- UUNET with over
98,000 route-miles of fiber
connecting 87,000 buildings, it
is by far the largest and
fastest fiber-data network on
the planet! Cisco powered
network- Our Cisco Certified
network Engineers are ON-SITE
24/7 to handle any network
issues that may arise (i.e.
Denial of Service attacks,
connectivity issues, etc).
Security
Access to the data center floors
is restricted to those holding
military grade pass cards.
Furthermore, complete access to
our floor is only permitted by
allowance from the security
guards at the front desk, around
the clock. You can be safe in
the knowledge that only a
handful of highly trained,
level-three technicians will be
allowed within close physical
proximity to your server.
Equipment
All of our routers and switches
are made by Cisco. Cisco is a
tried and true manufacturer and
we use nothing but the best, so
Cisco is our only choice for all
network hardware. We have made
major and wise investments with
them because we feel that using
industry leading equipment that
has a proven track record is the
best choice, and is well worth
the extra expense.
Power
The power systems in our data
center are designed to run
uninterrupted even in the
unlikely event of a total power
outage. All servers are fed with
conditioned UPS (Uninterruptible
Power Supply) power that will
run if utility power fails. The
UPS power subsystem is "N+1"
redundant with instantaneous
fail over in case the primary
UPS fails.
Environment
Our data center's HVAC (Heating
and Ventilation Air
Conditioning) system is "N+1"
redundant to ensure that - even
in the event of an entire HVAC
system failure - there is a
duplicate system on standby to
take over. An advanced
fire-suppression system is in
place to prevent any fire from
spreading - in the unlikely
event that one could start. All
cables to servers and routing
equipment are securely tied
down, and cable racks suspended
from the ceiling provide dual
routes for all cables.This is so
in the event that all cables on
a cable rack are cut or burned,
packets of data will
automatically be routed to a
second set of cables on the
other side of the data center.
Climate Control
We
have 4 Data Aire air
conditioning units that provide
optimal conditions for equipment
operations. Climate control
means that the air conditioning
units monitor the temperature
outside of the building and
compare it to the temperature
inside of the building. Of
course, it is much more
complicated than that
description. Basically the
important factors are that the
temperature is maintained at a
balance of the two, and also the
humidity, airflow, and
cleanliness of the air is
monitored.
Expertise
We
invest a significant amount of
time and money into our staff to
make sure that they are
knowledgeable and are capable of
helping and handling our
customers with patience and
care. They also invest a great
amount of time and care into us,
knowing that they are working
with a company that places
people first and affordable
pricing to get their dreams
online. A company is only as
good as the people who manage
it. A network is only as good as
the people who manage it. It all
takes teamwork, and expertise.
Our entire staff works
IN-HOUSE and within working
distance of our equipment. While
our competitors need to dispatch
an admin 20 miles to repair a
server problem, we have it fixed
within minutes! Do not trust
your uptime to a company that
does not have PHYSICAL ACCESS
TO THEIR EQUIPMENT.
Monitoring
That talented staff we speak of
works around the clock to ensure
that our network is operating at
the most optimum state. We
continually review our collected
statistics and with very precise
care and attention. We closely
watch for traffic trends so that
we can react with the proper
routing adjustments and
bandwidth additions. We choose
to have a monitoring system
projected on an entire wall and
viewable at all times by anyone
who walks into our offices.
